Nearly done, just needs clear and grip. Here's the graphic I made with cut vinyl as a stencil.

about 2.5" of rocker, kind of continuous/3-stage. more rocker than I wanted, but it didn't flex back at all after taking it out of the vices. I built in concave to the deck, etc. I'll have more pics when it's done.

Well I've ridden it since and it has far too much rocker. When you put normal weight on the front foot it just plows water for the most part.

Rides alright though for the odd pond winch I suppose.

More info on the build, did you press it? I've made my own skis before, I am assuming I could press a wake skate in a similar fashion.
