What about a discussion on rocker? With specific numbers: nose, tail and some in between to get a sense of how it flows and what blanks are used and how they are modified? I always like to see what others use and why. George L
Rocker is the most complicated aspect of board design. It doesn't lend itself to discussion since the numbers shapers use aren't universally understood, even by them! (IE, the nose, center and tail measurements of the outline are easily bandied about by most surfers, but rocker numbers remain outside the realm of everyday conversation.
It would be a huge undertaking to deal with the topic in depth, I'm afraid.
That means you! Help to compile a definitive resource of sorts for anyone interested in "hulls", in the form of articles, experiences, pictures and video.
