A bit of nuance I've recently noticed with this board.

An advantage I've noticed is because it's so stable under the front foot it can make major movement with the back foot a lot smoother.

For instance, you're putting your back foot forward for a takeoff barrel, you actually make it out, you want to do a turn, it means stepping your foot back 8 inches or more. Can be tough with some styles of rockers because there's a chance you're gonna lose speed or degree of control if your front foot isn't in just the right place.

With the 2.0 it's really a breeze with the rocker being quite flat through the middle and the all around stability under the front foot.
