Thomas just fyi,
This is purely anecdotal, but perhaps don't write off the thruster setup.
Unless you're always just locked in and blasting through chop in straight lines the thruster feels good and is worth trying.
The early planing is still good, and getting about and staying upwind in swell seems much easier. Especially if you're using the inboard footstraps.
Its a little slower, but no matter the fin it's still not going to be quick like a dedicated freeride board anyway.
