That stale is nice. It's my pick, but the mute looks great too. I am just partial to Stalefish grabs in general.

stalfish for me is harder and looks better to my eye.

i also think its weird that you cant see the sticker on the bottom of my board on the first one but you can about read it on the mute.

Lighting brings out the sticker on the second one...mute would be cooler if you took it to a nice 180.

If the mute was taken to late 180 though, then I might go with the mute. Either way, nice style.

i like the mute. nobody does em and you have a solid grab on it. now take that mute to backside 180 and you should be able to throw down with randall pretty nicely

or take that stail to frontside 180 and that might be equally as sick as the ^^^

Envy...I was going to say the same thing. What lake is that?
Old    benj_t            07-23-2008, 11:08 PM Reply   
yea jason ive tried the mute backside 180 in the flats, its pretty tough. and i have done some stale front 180s they are really fun! that might have been one i cant remember.

socal MOB,
id have to kill ya if i told you but anyways its Tuckertown Lake in North Carolina, its seriously the nicest lake ive ever been to, but its private so i got it pretty much to myself, exept for the fishermen that get pissed off when we ride by cause of our wake. haha the fishermen take it personally!

Benj..all fishermen get pissed off and take it personally, especially when we purposely get too close to them Way too far for me but it's beautiful...you are lucky to have such a nice lake.

yea man im thankful for it! not trying to rub it in, but the most wakeboard boats we have ever seen on the whole lake at one time is 3! and today on the whole lake i saw about 4 boats! and then there was like the gnarliest storm ever so we had to leave haha if your even in north carolina just hit me up and you can enjoy the butter too. and thanks everybody for the comments! keep em coming!

I like the mute grab better partially b/c from the angle of the shot you can't see how you boned the stalefish out. Plus I just like mute grabs and since you can't see the landing, it looks like you might have been able to take it to blind ala Dean Smith.

My girlfriends parents have a place on Tuckertown. Sometimes I ride behind her Dad's little runabout boat. Awesome lake though, we went to the cliff thing you jump off of near the damn last time too..

Whats up benj I don't know if you remember but I was the one that gave you a pull behind my Super Sport at belews in like Oct last year. I didn't even know you could ride at tuckertown I used to fish off the bank when I was little.

P.S. You must have added some ballast to your dad's Tige because I don't remember it being that big. I like the stale but both are huge

if the mute was a FS 1 it would look way better imo, but for just straight grabs the stalefish will always look better dude


Oh and IMO the mute looks better taken to an early 180 and then held for awhile

If you and your dad ever want to come up to High Point I'll give you another pull. I ride Oak Hollow lake all the time and its about the same way. Mabe 3 wake boat and nothing but fishermen. Just send me a PM.
