Another advantage of a planning hull is the fact that they are very stable and are very easy to tilt downstream, as in a peelout, or downwave as in a surf cutback. All we teach the beginner to do is LOOK downstream as they peel. The flat hull takes care of any tilt. The *JUST REMEMBER TO LEAN DOWNSTREAM* command went out a number of years ago. It just ain't necessary with a modern hull.
