We use wooden blocks but for a completely different reason. In doing some research on lightening, we learned that wooden blocks make our rig less susceptible to damage from nearby strikes. In layman's terms, they intercept some of the charge.

Sounds like some of my buddies who think that rubber motorcycle tires protect them from lightning.

Not the same thing at all. Nothing will protect you from a direct hit. But a ground strike can travel several feet on the ground, and the wooden blocks dissipate some of the charge, thereby causing less damage. Look it up.
