Well that makes things more confusing!?!
What if I induce rocker by weighting the board on the rocker table for a few weeks to create all nearly all of the rocker I desire, then say increase the rocker the final 25% or so under vacuum to set the final shape give or take.
This should reduce the spring back and thus the shear stress on the composite reducing potential of future twisting or delamination under riding stresses. Any thoughts?
