I have wondered for a while maybe its just me but I havent ever really seen any riders that ride continuous rockers w/ knee injuries. I kno three stage boards are what everyone rides these days (myself included)haha but I cant ever remember seeing Sharpe, Shapiro, Murray (blew knee on a wakeskate not a wakeboard) Rusty ride with a knee brace. And these guys go the biggest!!! And some of the pros with the worst knees Watson (blown twice in 1 year), Parks, Shane, Byerly, Lyman, ride or rode agressive 3 stage boards. Myself personally I rode a Belmont for three years no problem with my knees and soon as I switched to a 3 stage byerly mine started hurting and blew about a year later. I know the 3-stage boards have come a long way with concaves and spines but I was just wondering if anyone else has seen the correlation.
