Wakesurf Board Pic. Thread (what will you be riding this year)
 

I figured that since they have one in the wakeboard forum. Then we should have one too.

I will start off

left to right

4'6" Doomswell Nubstep
4'8" Doomswell Bigstep
4'5" Doomswell Drone

and a 5' Doomswell Bigstep on the way

one i just have to share

Those boards look really great. Got any you want to get rid of cheap?:o

PM sent

what are the riding differences between the nubstep and the drone?

2014 Obrien Nalu Pro - daughter loves this board and 2013 IS Tako

One of a kind skim. 3/8" devinylcell (not exactly sure what density) and three layers of carbon fiber. It finished out at 1/2" thick. 53 3/4" x 21 5/8". It's ugly as sin but when you're riding it, it looks like a great white shark under your feet. I'm calling it "Whitey".

Sorry for the multiple posts. I can't seem to get more that one image to load.

Thin!

if you look a the tail the way it is shaped and where it starts is diff. For me i thing the nubstep is faster and has for pop off the lip than the drone. But they both sort of ride the same. I just like the feel of the Nubstep better and plus thats what all the team riders for Doomswell ride.

Just got myself my first board this winter. Got it used as a factory return, apparently less than a month of use on it. Looks mint.

Wavezone Boost skim style board 3'9". Yes I'm a little weird. I love myself some small boards.

SWEET!!! looks cool. Finless?

Dang thats small.
How does it ride bieng that small?

It has a fin. In the second pic, if you look at the right side towards the tail, you will see a single fin in the center.

ok i see it. blended in with the board

Ya, standard skim fin. I still need to profile that one to the bottom of the board. I think it would actually ride ok without it. It's uncannily stable. It's also fast. The one time I've was able to ride it at the end of last season, we got up to 13.7mph before we went over a little sand bar that was about 3' down and and wake just fell apart. The lake was really low and we decided that that was a little too close for comfort to continue with speed runs. I was impressed though.

No clue yet, haven't gotten out this year. I will definitely be posting about it though.
If it's anything like my friend's 4'0 React surf style, it should be very buoyant being it's a foam and fiberglass board, not compression molded or similar. It should also be very responsive to minor weight changes and quick, but hopefully not too slippery.

I bought it because of riding his 4'0 React. Once you had found the sweet spot on the board with your footing and center of gravity, all you had to do is shift your weight slightly and it would do what you wanted. It was as if you think it and it does it. I'm hoping this board will behave similarly.

I will be sure to post pics and video when I get out on it.

The piece, for the time being.Attachment 35317

Mostly this:

But sometimes these:

^^^ Whoa! Bonzer! That's a pretty radical lookin machine, Nick. Do you usually ride it with all 5? Those traction(?) pads almost look like Bamboo. Yes/no?

Damn. Then you drop the rest of the quiver. Sweet looking nose rider. Got any rail shots of it?

Fence Sence, the top patch is bamboo, Eco versions of 'carbon' tail patches
I have ridden it as a 5 finner, but generally prefer it as a quad... or at least I normally ride it as a quad, however the other day I took it out as a thruster and really dug it.

The spooner is crazy fun... lets just say the rails do a lot of different things... mix of performance down turn and old school 60/40 planers near the nose...

As soon as Nick sends me the 3 I just ordered I will post up!

I think the bamboo is a wax top board?

Jake, the first one is a surfboard, ocean surfboard. It can be ridden behind the boat, but I never have. A lot of people like to ride normal ocean surfboards I have made them behind the boat. It have a tail pad on it now, but yes it is a wax on top board.

Ahh, it is a tail patch. It almost looks like it has some thickness to it. Almost like cork. Just an optical illusion now that I l look at it. I love the application of an eco equivalency. Bitchin. It looks like a fast deck.

Oh sure, secret squirrel spoon. I could literally look at those things for hours. There's so many different elements that flow into one another. They are beautiful. But if you don't want to show the business end, I'll understand. :rolleyes: ;)

Next weekend I will be surfing on my Soulcraft custom fangtail. Love this board!!!

We might have a couple up for sale, what size are you thinking?

About to test this little guy out.

Whatcha got? I've been given some serious looks to Doomswell, Shred Stixx, and Soulcraft. Finding it hard to justify a large purchase ($500 +), at least for me, without demoing it. 4' 4" - 4' 6".

We have a 4'5" and a 4'6" jetty fang you can demo either at the WCO or when ever your over here in the C.O.

WCO?

I'll keep that in mind, for sure. Thanks Ben.

West Coast Open

^I'll take it you're riding an "Inner Peace, Ohm" board? :)

old school landlock! nice!

you got a pic of your mom micah?

only if you have pictures of yours John...lol

Cant wait

Here's mine, custom fang tail with rasta parabolic stringers. Love this board!!

Yup. I still drag mine along. They are great for newbies or for screwing around.

Don't discriminate!!! Support them all....

I don't discriminate, but seems, I'm always throwing the others back in the boat, and asking for my Soulcraft!!! I will try anything thrown my way, just have'nt found a more fun board to ride then my Soulcraft!

^^^^^ X2, exactly!!

Here is the bottom of last season's Brigade .352. This year I'm riding a one-off A-Ron. Pics to follow!

http://www.use.com/images/s_2/de4327549f22847412f6.jpg

Some great looking boards guys

and girls

Calibrated Piscus, Brigade 352., and a Soulcraft Da Honu.

That Brigade is sick. Whats the cost on that thing? And what size is it?

Zimme, the Brigade is a 4'9" it may be for sale if you or someone you know is interested PM me.

Update for those who wanted to know.
I rode my new board for the first time today, the 3'9" skimboard I bought. Well we have too steep of a wave and the fin in the back wasn't doing anything because of it being so small. Needless to say, riding a board without a fin tracking in the water is really squirrely. I'm sure it would work well on a flatter wake, but not well for us. I am looking into finding and swapping on a bigger fin to correct for this. Any input is welcomed.

I'll play :)

Here's my current quiver...a few boards aren't pictured as they're down at the lake house.

• 2014 The Walker Project Super Bomb Pop 4'5" Sixer
• 2013 IS Flyboy
• 2013 IS KF Surf
• 2013 IS Flyboy BigBoy (not pictured)
• 2012 Shred Stixx Custom Hazen Carbon
• 2012 IS KF Skim
• 2012 Liquid Force Custom
• 2011 Flyboy Prototype
• 2011 IS Flyboy (Rasta traction, my go-to board)
• 2010 IS Moss 4Skim
• 2010 Phase 5 Drew Danielo (not pictured)

Past boards that have found new homes include the IS Sweet Spot Pro, IS Mucus and O'Brien Alias.

Those FlyBoys are dope. I know that red prototype. I've ridden the next iteration of it. Jeff also made the prototype skimmer I posted above. Rock on.

The best board I've ever ridden. I'm so stoked on this board

2014 Victoria Skimboards Factor PCX

Second update:
Rode my small wavezone skim again when we dialed the wake better. I was able to freeride it and it tracked fine, not nearly as squirrely now that I could put more weight on the back. It did take some effort and I line rode most of the time, but was able to freeride it. I was able to pull my first spin, a surface 360 on it lineriding. It got me wanting to ride skim style more and to slim down to get to a lighter weight for the board and encouraged me to get a gym membership to do so.
It is definitely a fun board. I'm even thinking of trading it in to the manufacturer for credit towards one of their bigger boards. They do offer a buyback/trade in program, which is cool. I'm just not sure if I want to get one of theirs or get something else, maybe a Victoria.

Wax?!

This is the first year that I'm trying wax, and I'm really liking it. I feel the board better and I am confident landing tricks because I know that no matter where I land on the board I'm going to grip. I now know why real surfers and skimboarders don't use front traction pads, it just feels better.

I put an arch bar down the middle last night, so I'll see how that goes. I'm just messing around and figuring out what I like.

I have only ridden a Doomswell Drone Squash tail and I'm freaking in love. I want one SOOOO bad. It literally took me to a while other level in my riding... But they are quite expensive. Just send me your Drone please!

The only thing I don't like about wax is the mess it leaves in the boat. That's why I'm a big fan of full deck traction. This is my first season running the Agenda traction and I absolutely love it. I just wish it came with a few more pieces so I could fill up some of the blank areas. Other than that, the material is awesome. Super grippy and really soft.

When I'm not riding it goes back in my bag. It's a reflective bag which keeps it cool inside.

I found agenda too soft. My feet would slide around too much. I'm a big fan of Dakine. It's hard and grippy. It's not that comfortable for long rides, but my foot is a lot less likely to slide past the kick pad on airs.

Here's my wife's new stick hot off the press. Thanks again Jeff!:)http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...627_152642.jpghttp://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...627_152659.jpg
