Well by this time next week we will have seen the boards offered by " The Company". Anyone excited, hear anything secret? <BR> <BR>I can't believe how secret they have been. We'll see if it was good PR or a waste of everyone's time. <BR> <BR>I'm hoping for some great boards and equipment!

do they just have 2 pros?

HELLA stoked. <IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0> I'm really excited to check out their offerings. I don't wakeboard, but I like their vibe and I'm happy of their presence. And whilst I'm hyped on tino and randall, for sure, I'm really pleased that someone like gregg necrason has a home and can put his experience to good use. <BR> <BR>I also like that companies like this are making it possible for the riders to actually have a piece of the pie. They really deserve it, and it SHOULD be in their hands. And Of course I respect ronix for doing something similar. But these two just got me thinking is all.

I heard they were made by Slingshot. From a reliable source.

esnow, you know i respect everything you say, but "hella?????????????????" <BR> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/lol.gif" border=0><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/wink.gif" border=0>

Yeah, I don't really know what's wrong, or "why now." I'm not even saying it's right! Generally, I get these sayings that stick in my head and hella just popped in, only 6 or 7 years too late. <BR> <BR>So, at this point i'm just embracing it because it pretty much places itself in every other sentence I speak to myself. It makes me think of south park and evil cartman and what not. Eventually it will run its course. <IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0>

nsolis220 09-07-2008 8:23 PM

i thought originally they said one shape with few different flex patterns. i never got to see if the board Randall was riding was the same shape as Tino's.

wl4th 09-07-2008 8:48 PM

any pics? <BR> <BR> <BR>I see J Star wakeboards is trying the same PR as the company.

I am hoping for a team video. Rent out a helicopter, because that is the only way to film Necrason. Justin Stephens behind the lens, the Vandall throwing down like always and Tino and Valdez bringing their own style.

wakerider111 09-07-2008 9:47 PM

it appears the two different models of boards (recruit and severance) will not only have different flex patterns as has been mentioned in previous threads, but they have slight different shapes as is evident by the different lengths in the form on the blog site. Also, the "super limited" is probably gona be the "severance" model being as it shares the same length as one of the severance boards <BR> <BR>and for those who did not see it yet, there is some video and explinations and such here for Co. <BR><a href="http://alliancewake.com/video_details.php?id=3997&amp;page=1" target="_blank">http://alliancewake.com/video_details.php?id=3997&amp;page=1</a>
