does anyone know if they have a website, or who they are? I've seen some videos lately of a bunch of people riding them, like Keith Lidberg, Paul Hernae???? and Diego Shaw. Any news on this company?

Cody Johnson as well, saw him shred up a control board, he was killing it.

Not for me to spill the beans, I will let Ctrl do that.

Hopefully the boards are better than the name.

Woah Marc, diego and cody? sounds like the start of a badass team! Very interesting in seeing these boards....

Lidberg let JStar?!? Though he had a good thing. In Diegos vid from norbi at around the 20 sec point you can see that the bottom looks almost just like a lidberg. but the tip and tail r v shaped like a witness.. I need info!!!

I heard that CTRL is a new board brand from ten-80. Just what I heard though...

(drew_reynolds) · (drew_reynolds) **Join Date: Aug 2008** 12-09-2010, 3:56 PM

O and that would explain why Lidberg is riding those boards

saw a pic of Kyle Cameron on one as well.

CTRL boards are made for cable, from what I have seen and heard, they are pretty much bullet proof, like Chuck Norris.

Ctrl..... Saaaaayyyyy ssssooooommmeeettthhiiiinngggg!!!!!

(behindtheboat)

I disagree they need to say something. They're letting the word of mouth marketing spread itself, and be more intriguing, rather than building the hype un-naturally and premature like some other companys did

I did the name and had a chance to talk with Cody and he said they were bullet proof too, told me the guys in it have been in the sport a long time and wouldn't say more. I asked about 1080 because of Lidberg with Three and he said they were totally different guys than them.

Not 100% sure, but was it Lidberg how broke two of them at the Red Bull event last week?

What's up dudes, I got word that there were some inquiries on here about the mystery boards some of the local shredders have been riding. It is no secret that the name of the boards seems to be CTRL.

Here is the inside scoop as of right now. I have left Jstar after three amazing years to go with a new board company. Although a tough decision it was ultimately the right and last one. To answer some of the questions on here; Unofficially some of the guys around the U.S. have been sent proto boards to test. The company is %100 un-related to Ten-80/Three. Be sure that in the coming months you will start to see the future of this sport and all who are involved. From what I have seen I can assure you that you will not be disappointed!

BTW It was I who broke two proto boards at the Wake of Fame. One was from a huge gash on the base of the board from a missed ollie on to a metal hand bar corner and the other was from coming up about two inches short on a concrete 6 foot step up, hardly normal conditions for a board to withstand. But perhaps as Cody had stated "bullet proof" there is no such thing, although, we can try

Stay tuned!

Have a killer Holiday Season and we shall return to this subject after the new year

(snoopy1173) · (snoopy1173) **Join Date: May 2010** 01-24-2011, 4:16 PM

I wonder what size the boards r and obviously how well they will hold up on rails, seeing as how they r based for riding on cable.

I was thinking that maybe it was the initials of all the riders on the team???? Like the hint wast the K & L was K.Lidberg and so on and so forth? But I am sure I wrong.

(Musgrove) · (Musgrove) **Join Date: Dec 2010** 01-24-2011, 6:14 PM

i saw a video of some people riding them they look sick man

(cheesydog) · (cheesydog) **Join Date: Mar 2009** 01-24-2011, 9:43 PM

yeh could be the initials

I saw Lior Sofer and Matty Hassler on control boards while watching the UWC on the weekend

(hyperlite) · (hyperlite) **Join Date: May 2009** 01-25-2011, 5:42 AM

awesome

(steezyshots) · (steezyshots) **Join Date: Feb 2008** 01-25-2011, 8:50 AM

Yes Joe based on seeing one. I know what I like in a board.

(andy_nintzel)

whens CTRL going to launch they had a count down on the website for a while last time I check (yesterday) it was 9hrs to go and today nothing...

(daveronix199) · (daveronix199) **Join Date: Feb 2009** 01-26-2011, 8:01 AM

Still nothing

(andy_nintzel)

why even have a count down then...

(xistential) · (xistential) **Join Date: Jul 2007** 01-26-2011, 2:11 PM

The countdown lead to the anticipation definitions. They are building anticipation. And judging by the response,it's working.

(andy_nintzel)

Chris is Nicola Riding for CTRL??? You seem to have the inside track on them....

(xistential) · (xistential) **Join Date: Jul 2007** 01-27-2011, 9:34 AM

Andy - the answer is no.

(xistential) · (xistential) **Join Date: Jul 2007** 01-27-2011, 10:09 AM

Andy - further to my previous post I don't want people thinking I know more than them about CTRL I know as much, if not less, than everybody else. I think their pre launch marketing is pretty clever though. They are dragging it out and leaving everybody wanting to know more.

(daveronix199) · (daveronix199) **Join Date: Feb 2009** 01-27-2011, 11:05 AM

Yes thats true, But sooooo BULL...

(wakerider111) · (wakerider111) **Join Date: Jul 2006** 01-27-2011, 9:08 PM

so going on the rider initials theory... who has the initials MS?
another two letters are colored again, this time green

we have 9 more pairs to go, so probably about 2 more weeks to go based off this code thingy

(pprill) · (pprill) **Join Date: Mar 2010** 01-28-2011, 1:15 AM

MS = maybe Marc Schuster!? ;-)

(jmuthafnp) · (jmuthafnp) **Join Date: Feb 2006** 01-28-2011, 10:22 AM

Yep.. Marc is riding one as seen at the CWC Ultimate Wake Championship. Lior Sofer, Cody Johnson and the list goes on. Team is stacked. It's not like this stuff isn't out on the Internet. Just go look.

I heard Nicola just signed with JSTAR to fill the void left by Keith and Jeff. Just sayin.... HAHAHAHA! Let the rumor mill continue to run.
