Why would colby stevenson ride a rockered ski for slopestyle?

I thought rockers only help a skis performance in powder or crud... wouldnt it have been better to ride a full camber ski on a park course? Or does a little tip/tail rocker not do much to the skis performance? Or does rocker even help?
from what i understand nobody else was riding a rockered ski in xg slope but i might be wrong.

Keeps tips from catching on take offs. You would be hard pressed to find an unrockered ski now. Most everyone was riding a rockered ski in slope. I think the Salomon NFX would be just about the only ski that is not rockered and it might still have some.
