Surfing Waves

Can someone help me, i keep reading about boards and their rockers but i dont no what that means.

Rocker = how much the board is curved up.

Nose rocker = how much the nose is curved up.

Kicker (aka tail rocker)= how much the tail is curved up.

The Rockers is the bottom curve of a board. A board with a very curved rocker makes it turn tightl. But makes it harder to paddle, harder to catch waves, and is slower on a wave.
A flatter rocker makes a board more difficult to turn and more likely to pearl.

yup. using that kinda of thought, someone from florida would have a lot less rocker that someone from hawaii, based on waves
