that is freaking awesome. i have wanted to see actually pictures for a while. that looks really cool i wanna try one out. is that the roam series in the background? i havent seen a real picture of that board it looks crazy. these skates look insane.

for all of you who are too lazy to click that link, here you go.....

savage3221 · Posted: Sep 12, 2004 8:36 pm Post subject:

yeah that looks like it may be the roam.

Elevation · Posted: Sep 13, 2004 12:37 pm Post subject:

it looks like an oversized skate deck. (looks like wood plys IMO)

that is awesome.... when are they going to make them look like snowskates... not that i want them that way. i think they look weird.

Elevation · Posted: Sep 14, 2004 6:00 pm Post subject:

beasoldierprstn, when i heard by level, i thought that would be exactly how it would look aslo, only a wakeskate shape. i guess that would just be too much height or something?? i dont know, somebody should try it.

Nick Taylor · Posted: Sep 14, 2004 6:26 pm Post subject:

there are at least 2 other confirmed companies besides cassette working with the bi-level design

Elevation · Posted: Sep 14, 2004 7:38 pm Post subject:

that looks really sick. id like to see the other companies designs i bet there will be a really wide variety.

che blanc, do you know what other companies?

Elevation · Posted: Sep 14, 2004 7:39 pm Post subject:

i wonder how heavy these things are?

LFADAM · Posted: Sep 15, 2004 4:49 am Post subject:

Wow, they look like they would be reall heavy and really hard to flip around because they are so tall. I would definelty want to demo one to try it out.

Elevation · Posted: Sep 15, 2004 12:47 pm Post subject:

i bet they are heavier but easier to flip cause those things probably get a ton more pop.

WakeKid07 I know one of the supposed companies is hyperlite.

That would make primo slides possible. Very Happy

Although probably pretty hard.

Elevation · Posted: Sep 17, 2004 1:02 pm Post subject:

yea i could see some pretty bad falls doin a primo slide. but hey i bet some people would be crazy enough to try it.

for those of you that have snap that box in grubbs part, that' would be totally doable to primo if it was just a few inches above water level. think how hard it would be to land and keepsliding on it sideways, well at least the landing

the only thing is that the bottom deck is curved so you wouldnt be able to really lock in and be stable. how ever if they mad a bilevel of the square kampus skate....

Elevation · Posted: Sep 18, 2004 6:25 am Post subject:

plus the top deck is skinnier than the bottom so it wouldnt be able to lock in on two flat rails, it would slant and make u fall.

Fredrick Eisenhauer · Posted: Sep 18, 2004 8:42 am Post subject:

You could play around with the design a bit...

Elevation · Posted: Sep 18, 2004 9:24 am Post subject:

yea if u cut the base deck down on the sides

"It IS true that hyperlite is trying to rip the design off, and Horrell said the patent has gone through, so he will be suing them." "And it will be fun"

i hope he sues the sh|t outta hyperlite Twisted Evil

che blanc, im with you man

beasoldierprstn · Posted: Sep 19, 2004 5:58 pm Post subject:

che blanc, me too, they came up with the idea, they should be able to sell it for a while before anyone else does it. but on the other hand, it would be really funny if both companies put a lot of money in it and no one liked how the new design rode.

midwest wake · Addict Joined: 13 Oct 2003 Posts: 629 City: Middleton

i read some article that horrel has made so many developments to wakeskates but this is the first one he has patented. so the other ones wern't worth the money. so this one should be worth it.

beasoldierprstn, that'd be so funny, obiviously some people are gonna hate it but for everyone, talk about comedy

haha that was lame

people are paying big $$$ on ebay for that skate Wink

Elevation · Posted: Sep 23, 2004 5:59 pm Post subject:

holy crap! i hadnt checked it after i put it on here. the auction has been going for a little over a day (with almost 6 to go) and its already up to freaking $294!!! anybody know how much they will retail for when they come out in shops?? with 5 days left that thing will probably go up to like 500 haha.

Its for charity, so if you are wealthy enough, you can buy it then turn it in as a tax writeoff. Assuming you could validate that it is for charity since its just an ebay transaction.

They do look cool. Ill wait to hear input from riders on here, and maybe, maybe, ill buy one sometime next season.

i agree they look really sweet but it looks like other companies are coming out with some sick stuff too. 484s new skates look awesome especially the new wood channel on the bottom of one model. the LF armada looks crazy too. check out some pics of the new skates. http://www.wakeskating.com/media/showgallery.php?cat=531
