I may have to tune the release a little.
I want it to flow off the bottom like the
single to double concave FlipTip I made.

Although the rocker is quite flat, the bottom
of this board is not flat across. There are
panels along the rails that are beveled at
1 degree. That's what the cuts in the top
are for. To let the core flex to conform to
a gently curved spine when I mold it. It's
filled with hard foam and resin. You can
kind of see the bevel in the light reflecting
off the bottom in the lower right. I took that
shot in the rain so you can also see water
droplets.

Hey that's a pretty build - do you have any rocker aside from those tip kickers & are those custom made fins?
