right now i have a vinyl that i love but i hear a lot of good things about the gator deuce pop and the oak team. I can get the 06 deuce pop for 150 shipped right now and id be willing to pay 200 for the oak. Would these boards be that much better than my vinyl <BR>Gracias mis amigos y muy bonita chicas

wait and get the Ronix skate.

Keep the vinyl, a new wakeskate won't make you any better. Spend that money on a new vest or spectra line / handle

<b>DO4</b> i def agree with that a new wakeskate wont make me any better, but some skates just like snowboards just feel better and are more enjoyable to ride for ex: my vinyl vs the gator pro model which i absolutely hate. I dont even feel like wakeskating when im on that board, but the vinyl i love but the deuce pop, omen, and team machine also look like good boards. I already have good vests and a good rope and handle.

skip all and get an SST... i hear they are glorious

when does the SST come out?

probably in another month or so. Im stoaked to see the ronix bi-level also. Especially since i have a hook up with them and LF.

why not get a LF SST... the only person whose really ridden the ronix is reed hansen... <BR> <BR> <BR>many pros and just regular wakeskaters and everyone i hear says they're going to change wakeskating... <BR> <BR>but test em both out and see what you like... especially since its ronix's first skate and bilevel <BR>Nick Kljucaric, i think they come out in a month or so

I know there have been alot of you waiting to get / see Production SST Wakeskates. We just got in 30 of them with the Stripe graphic. I've been told there are only going to be 40 of these skates made and that all future 43" skates are going to be with a new Aaron Reed specific graphic...but we won't see those till Late November or Early December. We are filling pre orders for skates, but should have a few left over. Heres the link if you are interested. I'll post actual photos of the decks shortly. <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.perfski.com/cart.cfm?cart_action=item_info&amp;category_guid=0 81a8806-6af5-4268-b2bc-6a297609d123&amp;item_guid=8e270893-65bf-d230-45f5-77878abe943f" target="_blank">http://www.perfski.com/cart.cfm?cart_action=item_info&amp;category_guid=0 81a8806-6af5-4268-b2bc-6a297609d123&amp;item_guid=8e270893-65bf-d230-45f5-77878abe943f</a> <BR> <BR>Bill @ Performance <BR><a href="http://www.perfski.com" target="_blank">www.perfski.com</a>
