For all of you who do it know, it is a way of life once you start you are hooked. Who wakeskates around here? and what boards are you guys riding?

nah i built my own hardwhere using aircraft aluminum for the spacers. did all the milling on a machine in school. then drilled and tapped the holes. Then got stainless hardware from ace the helpful hardware place. It was a mega bitch to build but it was pretty cool. its really heavy though. The real ones are 2-3 pounds lighter. Its cool though. im prolly gonna take it apart this year and just use it as a single deck.

I was at Pine tonight fixin my shizz, and was lookin at the new wakeboards, I MUST SAY that the Liquid Force "Shane" is maybe THE sickest board EVER. Along witht the SHANE binding. By far the sickest setup Ive ever seen and I think Im going to be riding that on Memorial if I go to my buddies house. Im very Excite!

The new Ronix stuff is supposed to be super sick. If you havent seen their stuff take a look at it. The owners from hyperlite left and started this new company. They also took some riders with them too.(Parks, harf, copeland, and some more i cant remember). its kinda like how Armada is doin biz.

the new ronix bindings are the most comfortable binding ever. The liner is heat modable like a ski boot so theres no pressure points anywhere.
