so i got my first board yesterday (yesss) and the guy at the shop talked me into buying a 4-fin board instead of the normal 3-fin thruster. the board is 6'8", 22.5", 2.75" ... what are the benefits and drawbacks of 4 fins opposed to 3 fins?

Like most surfing related questions this one has been done to death. Good current thread on this topic at www.swaylocks.com in the general discussion area titled "How many fins & why"...some posts there from some of the best shapers on the planet.
