I a riding with the backlines on the last knots and still noticing a slack on my back lines. Is it normal? If it isn't is there a way to fix it ?

Pull the bar in, takes the slack out of the lines.

it happened to my 2013 SB. the lines can stretch. anchore your lines to a single point and pull the bar tight. if the back lines dont pull as tight as the front, then you need to make the adjustment to the knots at the top of the lines to shorten them. i learned this from te guys at Surf FX the other day.

Thanks Moustacheo, I will do that. I am pretty sure they are stretched.
