So a a backflip on a skateboard is not skateboarding. Progression always leads to an invert. look at BMX, skateboarding, snowboarding, MX, someone just did a backflip on a snowmobile in freestyle competion. I don't want to see wakeskating become "Binding-Less Wakeboarding" but an invert would be cool.

ya i agreew thi todd, it will be cool, its alot harder and will take more practice, it looks cool as well

A backroll on a wakeskate and one on a sled are totally two different things. How can you compare them. It is more what wakeskating stands for than anything else.

there are a lot of inverts on a skateboard. I am just saying that progression always leads to someone going upside-down.

hmmm... I'm not so sure that grubb has landed a kickflip...

Fair enough.

derrick lenz · Posted: Apr 08, 2003 8:59 am Post subject:

an invert on a wakeskate would be way more legit than on a wakeboard so why would you be opposed. i agree that i don't want wakeskating the be a copy cat of wakeboarding but an invert(with out a board tranfer) would be cool.

I think it would be funny if Grubb Sux was really Brian Grubb and he is just messing with people.

David Legler · Posted: Apr 09, 2003 4:43 pm Post subject:

yeah and he is doing just to here all of the good stuff people say about him so he feels better about himself.

ok ok you guys need to look outside the box, all these kids are ripping it grubb is good he can do good thigs but only 1 ota 100 times thats why he has good movie parts i think SEAMAN,lovett and kenny davis need way morerespect they have stuck ALOT of good things in the past year or so (vf,w2w kf, fs flip, sw kf) seamn cant do the bigtime stuff but he beats lovett every time in skate so whos better who

It's funny how people are all "oh no, if you do a flip on a wakeskate you're gonna ruin the sport." Hmmm...I have a hard time imagining that if somebody eventually gets an invert on a wakeskate, that anyone would be upset about it. I know if I saw it happen, my jaw would hit the floor and I'd just be in awe of whoever did it.

Not unlike the time when people were ripping on double inverts, but then whenever people saw one, they seemed to change their mind.

suckmywake · Posted: Apr 23, 2003 5:30 am Post subject:

Again, double inverts and an invert on a skate are totally two different things. I'm just saying that wakeskating wasn't started with that in mind. YES, someone is prolly gonna do one and everyone will be "cool, that's totally extreme!", and whatever. I just relate it to street skating style with shuvits, spins, kickflips, dockslides, etc. And to me that's what it is about.

dont be hating on any pro wakeskaters just cuz you dont like their style.

wakelover · Newbie Joined: 14 Jan 2003 Posts: 27 City: Auburn, Alabama

I don't get it. Why are people hatin on the guys that are pushing our sport to the limit. Just because the guys at the cable parks aren't in mags doesn't mean they suck. All it means is they haven't been found out yet. All the pros contribute a little something different to the sport. Snatch your panties out of your crack and lighten up. Peace.

Alright this is an old post, but what the hell. I cant understand how you think Gubb sux, you obviously have never seen him skate. I respect all the those guys, but have you seen F4A or all or nothing? He goes HUGE of a slider ramp in F4A and literally flys of a kicker in All or nothing. Hes goes bigger than anyone else, but horrel and some other guys have him beat on technicals. Reed is also killing it. Id just suggest you find out who you are talking about before you bash him, and make your sn Grub Sux

Byerly invented wakeskating and have more style than Horrel, grubb, or kovacich, but they are all pimp anyways

David Legler · Posted: May 30, 2003 6:12 am Post subject:

Byerly did not invent wakeskating.

David Legler, it sort of depends what you define as wakeskating...Byerly was the first to land a shuvit on a wakeboard without bindings, but then again Schmaltz used to ride with velcro booties and stuff...who did define wakeskating then?

jibn-it-all · Outlaw Joined: 12 Jan 2003 Posts: 248 City: apopka

ok ok weve astablished who are the front runners with two diff styles, grub and horrel thats setlled, who do u guys thinks gona be the next grubb and horrell?

i think timmy k is gona be the next horrell, i think aaron is gona be the next aaron cuz hes got such his own style and i think brondon thomas is gona be the next grubb but hell be more teck, and dont forget about hampson hes frikin awsome hell be ahead of everyone once hes a lil older.

Josh R · Posted: May 30, 2003 6:55 am Post subject:

I think Tim K will be the next Tim K, Brandon T will be the next Brandon T...

Everyone will be riding with a style all to their own. And everyone will always perfer one style over all the others.

All of the guys on Jeremy's list are the ones I dig. Grubb doesn't get me pumped to ride at all. But that doesn't mean he sucks...

1) grubb lands a Kick flip in ALL or NOTHING, 2)What About Aaron Reed he has mad skills on a skate? No, grubs doesnt suck any one who says that has their head up their ass.

I rode with Brian Grubb last Friday at a Hyperlite Demo on Lake Austin. I didn't get to see him ride because he went earlier on another boat, but he pulled me and a couple of friends later on. Pretty cool guy and tried to help us all (as much as possible - Bruce Almighty may be the only person who could help my wakeskating!) get better.

From what Billy G told me, Grubb was throwing some SICK w2w tricks earlier in the day.

I don't understand why you are all fixated on "who's better? who's best?" Why can't you just have a category for "These Guys are Total Badasses" I am pretty sure all the riders mentioned in this thread would fit in quite nicely there.

juswan2ride · Newbie Joined: 31 May 2003 Posts: 15

Yeah i saw grubb ride in shasta, in a Hyperlite demo, he was tearin it up i talked skating with him but never got to be pulled or ride with him, that would have been bad ass.

He did do it off the dragon @ Odub, i watched him do it...

i'm sure Grubb is sittin in his house eatin a twinkie right about now thinking to himself, "Man, i sure hope Grubb Sux isnt gonna take my spot on the tour. I gotta step it up before this guys gets me! OH NO!"
either get a life or make a video and post it so we can see how much your actually rippin it up

Yep he sucks all rite, infact last i heard that a bs boardslide to shovit was an beginer trick, last week i was throwing tripple kickflips to nosepress to 540 shovit out.......................

God i wish i sucked as much as him....

Sry ya'll but if someone is talking things to the next level, geting sponserships from wherever he wants, and probobly rides behind a nicer boat than pretty much anyone here, the guy obviously is doin somethin rite so lay off the man, hes off the hook!

Oh BTW how do i post a pic, i have a sweet pick of grub doing a kickflip to indy (just a lil harder than a kickflip) but i cant seem to post it

Jeremy Coe · Soul Rider Joined: 27 Feb 2003 Posts: 408 City: Auckland

Burton7star, a kickflip to indy is not harder than a kickflip. The grab makes it easier than just catching the board with your feet. Its the same when you skate halfpipe, a straight kickflip is harder than a kickflip to indy.

Burton7star · Newbie Joined: 30 Jun 2003 Posts: 26 City: Portland Oregon

My Bad Jeremy, I cant do either a kickflip nor a kickflip to indy so i dont have a clue wich is harder, the grab just makes it look all that cooler. But all im sayin if i have a pic of Grubb goin wake to wake 5-6 feet up kickfliping to indy, im sure hes pulled one off in the flats
