Anyone been on the other site lately? Slow server, errors all the time and it's getting worse everyday. Just a little thanks to Pat for keeping this site running tip top for all of us to get our wakeboard fix. THANKS! Keep up the good work.

Now if we can only get rid of the people that bash every other post like 12 year olds...

Wakeboarder = good for kids who think they know much more than they do about the industry, and ride Hyperlite.
Wakeworld = older, more respectful crowd.

WW is in the middle of changing servers, ran into some difficulties. It happens, quit bashing. Both sites are good.

ww has been changed over as far as i know. it was supposed to be faster when it was done, now it's down again. there is no bashing by me koltman! way to stir the pot though. ONCE AGAIN...THANKS TO PAT AND THE REST OF THE CREW FOR MAKING THIS SITE RUN AS SMOOTH AND FLAWLESS AS IT HAS BEEN FOR THE PAST YEAR.

Thanks for the nice comments otiswunguy. I don't know anything about what's going on at Wakeworld, but I can sympathize with server problems. Most people don't realize the intense strain big wakeboarding sites create.

There are lots of respectable members here, but there are those who cause problems. I don't visit Wakeworld really, but I'm sure there are some bad apples around there as well.

otiswunguy, Excuse me for the misinterpritation. Pat is doing a great job here. I never thought Pat and Dave were in competition though. I'm not stiring any pot, just saying both sites are good.

What I know, Dave of Wakeworld changed to a bigger more reliable server and there was a few hickups still being ironed out. Some weird changes were made and Dave still getting on top of them. (though seems like thats all taken care of now)
I would like to thank both Pat and Dave for providing such great sites for our wakeboard needs.

otiswunguy, one might say the same thing about this site since the server crashed in the winter of 2003...

both sites are great for getting information from, i just happen to like the people that post here a bit more.

Magellan, I found (the other site) it to be a bunch of elitists.... who think you don't no crap unless you are from Cali..... non of those cat's will ever admit they are WRONG even when they are proven wrong. very Ignorant if you ask me.

I'd rather keep it light and fun.
