true but just scrolling through the 8 pages i got the impression that the quad seems to be more popular

ok yeah makes sense that my current hollow might be a bit too aggressive for these profiles to shine. I understood i get the agility for turning of a smaller single radius profile and for the long strides i get a bigger radius profile. Seems like you guys don't really recommend the ellipse. The shared experiences also seems very mixed to me. Pro Sharp Marketing always talks about it being a Zuperior/ Quad profile with steady/continous transitions rather then instant radii changes. This kinda implies to me that they think the ellipse is the next development stage of the fixed radii profiles.

Hi guys, I am looking for a profile recommendation. Backstory: I recently upgraded from a x800 vapor to a 3x pro vapor (size 9.5). Straight line speed feels good but having trouble with smooth turns and especially braking (really having trouble with my left foot). I found out that i went from a 9ft single radius profile to a 10ft radius, judging by Bauers description. Another thought is that my old Blade is max 2/3 of the heigth of the new one, so i am bit afraid that the different sharpeners grinded a bit of a custom profile into the steel. I really liked something around 1/2 inch RoH for an strong grip for tight turns and general agility. Any recommendations (looking at quad or ellipse profiles)? Thanks in advance!
