V or Strait paddle tires

**sorry bout that.
what I was wondering is what the difference is between V and Strait paddle tires. I heard that straits hook up a LOT better and are just better than V's. Is this true?
Thanks for any help

Straight! If you have a need for help in turning consider some mohawks/shark fins, or even a rimmed front tire.

I have GBC dune streakers(SMOOTH) and I don't have problems with turning, however I seem to override alot so perhaps something on front would help me (live and learn). But straights are much better.
