Has a lot of rocker - but it still might work.

Has a good look to it though.

One of the coolest things about kiting is you can ride anything and it will work. Take Lou for example, he rips on a McDonalds lunch tray, give him this skate and he would be ripping. Razz

Fixed.

I am glad you guys are learning in Woods class and your boards are cool. But I am quite disappointed that you haven't learned to write.

May I suggest that the issue here for the two boys is one of the design, and build of their wakeskate. There are folks on this forum with considerable talents in this area--Hein being one of them. If adults truly want to help kids, I think a focus on the area of what the kids are asking help with will be the most constructive.

Peace,

Eric

John I am super stoked to try this out! We should either try it in the ducky pond or behind carter's wakeboarding boat. The pads look a little funky with the bad color coordination but it was our "debut" board made in an elective class so whatever. Oh ya and post some pictures of the finished wakeboard product.

Tony Very Happy Very Happy
