Need? Nah. But I find it very useful. I’m particularly impressed with how quickly you can change directions. In heavy current you have to be conscious of your orientation and rudder, but I use it all the time on bottom drops when drifting if I mark structure I like and want it to be dead on it.

Only issue is that it can be annoying to shift, as it takes that half a pedal and I’ll catch myself pulling hard before it’s ready.
