i just realized i cool it feels to be part of wakeskating. i've been wakeskating for like 2 years and i know that i have not really been in the forefront of pushing the sport, but i feel like i have had a hand in it. Ive tought like 3 or 4 of my friends how do wakeskate and some of them are wanting to get there own. I know i came into the sport a lil after it all started but im still tehre and seeing how much its come in the past 2 years. And knowing that im a part of it that were all a part of it, and seeing that its finally becomeing its own sport, and that every day were taking bigger and bigger steps away from being and offset of wakeboarding.

true. and it is strange how when even i started wakeskating last summer that things such as a 360 shuv-it seem soooo, i don't know how to expain it, but just so advanced and i would just pray for the day when i could land one, and now i am getting close which feels so great.

i know how you feel, like mabye this is why its so more appealing than wakeboarding because its so new and that the ones of us who are out there every day doing it are getting down some of the tricks that the pros where just learning like a season or two ago

yeah. whenever i take friends out they usually want to try the wakeboard out first just because they know more about that than wakeskating. they always have a lot of trouble getting their feet in and out of the bindinds and so by the end of the weekend they are always like "now i can see why you just wakeskate, all you have to do is throw on your shoes and you are ready to go" and then all they want to do is wakeskate. and i think this will be a factor in being more appealing to people and getting more people involved. which is always good. Very Happy

thats what i do. i let them ride the foam, i don't let many people ride my concave cause since they are beginners they don't really need it, and i don't want them to mess it up to much.
