Rocker on George, for Ringo one time!



I built my rails, and cut my rocker into the bottom of the rails. Now it was beginning to take the fluid shape of a surfboard.

Rocker - the curve of the board from front to back - is an important aspect of surfboard design. It will affect paddling, wave-catching ability, turning, and negotiating steep drops.

Everything is a compromise - there is no one "best" rocker profile, you just have to find what works best for your board, your waves, and yourself.
