Hi Michael, I've had the exact opposite results - love these pads on my old center-pull Weinmanns.

The down-side to the Yokozuna carriers is they don't have the spherical toe and camber adjustment. But they work great on these brakes. I also put salmon pads on my Campy short pulls and am happy (these carriers of course do have spherical adjustment). But the Campy brakes came with cork pads and you talk about brakes right now - they were incredible - but they don't last long. I'm not sure salmon pads are better than the Tektro black rubber in the dry, but they're the best in the wet.
