| Not bad. I'm a bit skeptical about this design, having twice as much wood under your feet means you gotta work that much harder to get it in the air & flip it around. And I'm a bit disappointed that pop shuvits remain the staple flip trick when so many of the pros have busted kickflip variations, I'd definitely like to see more of that. Overall though, those guys still rip. |

You clearly haven't looked into the physics of this board and the point of the design and how it works

Kickflips are great, but who says that once you have those dialed, that those are the only tricks that are acceptable?...
This is why I hate wakeboarding  _________________ ...island style... |

I'm not sure if that's a crack at me, but if it makes you feel better I'm not a wakeboarder, I'm a skater.
I wasn't saying kickflips need to be the standard trick, but if you can do one why wouldn't you film it? Videos don't get sold because guys keep doing the same tricks they've done for a while, they get sold 'cuz someone's doing something new. Pop shuvits have been the standard flip trick for a while now, I know guys can kickflip & I'd like to see more of it. If that's offensive to you then keep doing pop shuvits. |

Jester, I seriously think Nick could out skate most people switch, flat out the kid rips, and he does more than one flip variation soooooooooooooooo probably not an arguement you want to take to him, incidentally go buy Fill In The Blanks lots of flip trickds in that, the bi-lev vid was just a booth promo vid from surf expo _________________ TEAM PIRATE, AAAARRRGGGHHH YOU READY?

For the record, when I say "skating" I'm talking skateboarding, not wakeskating. I've only wakeskated a few times & would definitely not challenge anybody's ability compared to mine.
And I'm not trying to argue with anyone, I was just stating my opinion. If people don't like it then they don't like it. I've seen video of Nick wakeskate & I agree that he rips, but that doesn't mean watching him do popshuvits all day won't get stale. I like variety & so do most other people. I was just saying that I know guys can kickflip so I'd like to see more of it. If you wanna get your panties in a bunch about it then go ahead, I'm not committed enuff to wakeskating to care one way or the other. |

they were just show casing the board, no need for extra gnar sauce, if I were a betting man I would say there saving that for AllaPrima, their new team vid _________________ TEAM PIRATE, AAAARRRGGGHHH YOU READY?

| I really liked the video, i don't care about them not doing all this fancy stuff, its the fact that they made all the tricks look effortless. Which will definatly make people want that skate. |

Jester, It's really not that big of a deal, I understand the thirst for crazy footage with new tricks... totally... BUT saying that every shuvit trick is the same is kinda redundant
Vance, It's true haha _________________ ...island style...

No, but I think you are by dragging up an old thread from 20 days ago, just so you can accuse me of having a big ego  _________________ ...island style... |

Why are you always trying to start sh:t with me? You always say I have a big ego, but I don't know what you base this on, seeing as how you've never met me
