Interesting. <BR>who was robby with before? wasn't it the Byerly team? <BR> <BR>the board in the pic looks like it has a liquid force water drop emblem it seems

Yea he was with byerly which is crazy to me because byerly is such a new company and with robby j leaving doesn't leave the team with too many hard rippers on the byerly wakeboards. Yea there's Ross G but robby kills on a wakeboards. There's Kyle but doesn't win anything. The byerly team got really hurt.

Robby rips, and makes it look so good in the process. Watching him ride on a slingshot really makes me want to try a flexboard. <BR> <BR>Robby, it was gonna get out sooner or later right? haha

it seems like everything takes about two years for people to really start accepting... i'm just thinking of the introduction of closed toe boots. <BR> <BR>a few people were super stoked by closed toe when they first came out and others were completely against them and most had not tried them... mostly because not every company had one yet. about 2 years later, everyone has a closed toe option and it is much more widely accepted <BR> <BR>same thing seems to be happinin' with flex. <BR> <BR>..maybe i have said this before, but i just think it is kool how it all has/is played/playing out. 4 hole mounting will be next if i play my guesses right <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/biggrin.gif" border=0>

I got an Email last night about Robby changing over to Slingshot. Good for Him, go get that money son!

Yeah, and it looks like he's not getting very good pop on that flexboard (sarcasm).
