I was out trying tantrums again on monday and noticed this freeze frame while editing. Laughing It was my last attempt so Im not sure if I broke my board (I didnt notice it while taking it off so I doubt it)...Im hoping it just flexed a bunch, but that picture freaks me out a little. Just proof that even the stiffest/thickest boards flex more than you think.

If all wakeboards were truly rigid, a lot more of em would snap. Think about airplane wings and how much those bounce/flex during your flight. Without that give you'd develop cracks/breaks really quickly. Same thing goes for a wakeboard.

That's awesome to see it pointed out like that.
