It's not that hard to see. All good shapers can see the parts apart from the wholeI think you're trying so hard to argue your point, that you refuse to see that neither rocker nor contours can be seen in isolation.
I suppose the only way to do this would be verbal descriptions of curve. The numbers would be a can of worms. Plus most shapers like to think they have secret sauce/magic and they will be loathe to map out their rocker numbers for the general public/competitors. Not going to happen. So verbal descriptions would probably be the ticket. That is going to take some communication skills re getting relevant information to a relatively unsophisticated client base.
Yes, but you argue that one (contours) has nothing to do with the other (rocker). I think most shapers know very well that are intimately linked.It's not that hard to see. All good shapers can see the parts apart from the whole
Nope, you misunderstand my post. I don't argue that.Yes, but you argue that one (contours) has nothing to do with the other (rocker). I think most shapers know very well that are intimately linked.
Yes you have. I didn't say the same rocker from nose to tail. I said from nose flip ( which starts about a foot to a foot and a half back from the nose.Continuous rocker is when the curve keeps the same radius from tail to nose flip.
Nevr ever seen this .
I'll take a non-popular stab at it.For instance, how ...Lost describes the Driver working off the back foot or Xanadu's Family 1 of rockers.
This provides considerable insight IMHO.
Unless you prefer the familiarity of a particular type of rocker and don't want to spend time screwing around trying to make other boards work, posting on Craigslist (and dealing with tirekickers), playing w/ fins, buying fins, etc.Most quality shapers make boards that work well off both feet / frontside and backside
Most good surfers are always adapting to condditions and the board
Making 1 dimension boards is not something most shapers want to market or promote , unless you make a new flavor of the week and or have 86 versions of a hpsb on your website
