How much rocker are people running On a Tt? High, med, low?
I have a fairly flat rocker board 141x41 and thinking of making a high rocker version for bigger breeze/ chop. But what do people think is high rocker?

high 50mm +
med 30-40mm
low sub 30mm
Higher rocker is better for chop and high wind.
But you loose efficiency. IE they are worse upwind.
I love my high rockered mutant for stupid winds and smoothness in chop + riding waves. But hate the shitty upwind. Its all a compromise, Demo and find the board that suits your local conditions best.
