I have Liquid Force Anthem and it has foam grip. What wakeskate shoes should I buy?

I tryed normal skateboarding shoes few times last summer but after they got wet they weighed like 3kg each. So after that I've been riding barefoot and it's the best feeling but if I try ollie or shove-it tricks it's pretty hard/impossible to do them (havent landed shove-it yet) with barefoot. It's like doing tricks with normal skateboard with only socks on your foot.

I've used Adidas Superstar shoes as my normal shoes for like 7 years and their size is 10. So if that helps to get correct size.

Thanks for the answers Smile


e: Byerly II got good reviews but can't find size for me anymore.

Go for the Byerlys or cheap out and drill holes in the old skate shoes.

Got my shoes today and they feel great. Need to test them in action today Smile One stupid question; do you wear socks with them when you are wakeskating? I can't find a reason why to use socks but you never know.. :p

Some people actually wear socks. It's just personal preference whatever feel more comfortable.

No socks, That just adds weight and you bought real WS shoes to get away from the weight.
