If you have a relitively small wake, is a 3 stage rocker still a better idea than a Continuous, or would Continuous give you more boot in the air? I always thought 3-stage was always better for getting more air but after reading about rockers in February's Wakeboarding mag. I'm not to sure anymore. Confused

Yes with a small wake a a 3stage rocker would give you extra boost off the wake..I think the HL Byerly ,Premier or some of the Origin boards have huge rockers ,biggest ones out..Id try those..

well thats a bit confusuing with 3 stage having more pop and usually more rocker you would think it would be better to ride on smaller wakes with..I dissagree in logic of using a continuous for smaller wakes..Why does it say this is better???

The series with the most rocker is the Absolute03. It is a soft 3-stage..best of both worlds. The 140 has 3in of rocker.

I am probably totally wrong, but a continuous might help clear the wakes for transition with as much air as possible
