yeah, I tried a lincon loop once while jumping off the wake

I got about 5/8 of the way before I hit the water, my friend said it was pretty nice looking

I also tried a mute grab, that didn't go too well also

someone should make newschool water skis. thy would pretty much just be wake boards cut in two. hmm thats a good idea, someone should try it

I dn't think it would work. the reason the wakeboard gets pop is bcause its a solid surface area. If the board gets split, it would probaly lose its pop. But it would be sweet if it would work.
