i just searched for it in past threads so if it came up already, sorry. i was just wondering why Rusty Malinoski wears hyperlite bindings when he's sponsored by jstar. thanks in advance, <BR>chris

He is basically riding a modified 3DS with Hyperlite bindings..

what is a modified 3ds?

Rusty's board looks like its off the same press as the 3DS..

Talking to Glen Fletcher at O'town who rode the 3DS last year and now rides Rusty's pro model J-Star, a lot a like the 3DS but the Empire has a little more pop off the wake.

so can you buy this model? <BR>

yeah, it's the j-star empire like randy said. if you know a j-star dealer, you can buy it.

Yeah, I got them if you want them. My own board.

We special ordered one in for a guy the other day, that board was clean lookin'... <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR>Danny T. <BR><a href="http://WWW.OKCBoardShop.COM" target="_blank">WWW.OKCBoardShop.COM</a> <BR><a href="http://WWW.WakeboardOklahoma.COM" target="_blank">WWW.WakeboardOklahoma.COM</a>

So my assumption is correct?

wakesports unlimited in cali has the whole j-star line, the empire is my board of choice. hit em up 714-363-9253
