Wow, really no controversy or arguments this year? Nice to see that everyone agrees on everything, but it's kind of quiet around here!! :-)

Let me be the first to stir shiat up! lol

Parks needs to give his spot to JD.

Harley needs to be bumped up a few spots.

BTW...I won the Company handle and rope. Thanks Dave! Anyone want to trade for a Proline?

What kind of shape is it in?

(eubanks01) · (eubanks01) **Join Date: Jun 2001** 09-08-2009, 1:08 PM

Very good shape except for the emblem partially tore away from the handle one of the first sets using it. It was a warranty replacement though and no longer covered. I can send you pics.

I don't even wakeskate but I was surprised Nick Taylor wasn't on the wakeskaters list.

The only thing I see is Eddie is 2nd runner up for rookie of the year, and he didnt even ride because of his knee... Love that kid,

Why is Lyman number 10? Is he really the 10th most popular rider or is this poll skewed one way or another. Nothing against him I just don't see what he has done lately to be a top 10. Eddie V number 2? Why wasn't Lariche considered a rookie? Wasn't he Jr Men last year? I never noticed a runner up category for Rookie before either is that new.

+ 1 for Jimmy LaRiche for runner up rookie of the year, don't understand that one.

Jimmy was Rookie of the Year last year. Since he won the biggest pro payout of the 2008 season at Brostock, we considered him a pro last year.

No, runner ups for Rookie were posted last year as well: http://www.wakeworld.com/RidersPoll/2008/Rookie.asp

how is eddie valdez on there? he didn't ride this year due to a knee injury. plus how is nick taylor and randall harris not on there. seems like a wierd voting system

Pretty standard voting system. Anyone can vote.

this is predominately a wakeBOARD site not a wakeskate sight...i'd venture to say that a lot of the people voting dont even know what wakeskaters are up to these days...

my vote would've went to Reed Hansen..kids got hammers..front 5 and back 5 on a skate is insane...and my little buddy Grant Roberts would have to be up there as well...

Can we not get better pics of Melissa Marquardt and Amber Wing? I have seen WAY hotter pics of both, but the ones on the Top 5 Women page are just not that great. Which is too bad since both are very attractive.

Top two male wakeboarders are Canadian!
