08 will be my 2nd Wakeskating season and I almost landed my 1st Shuv-it at the end of the season so that will be my main focus when I start riding again this Spring and after I stick that I'm going to focus on 1 wake spins and then try and take it w2w

Mitch, the backside big took me soooooo freakin long to learn!

but its one of those fun tricks once you land it.

ive only tried a couple times. but my 360 shuv still refuses to be consistant and im a perfectionist and hate moving on until i get every step down first.

thats probably a good thing, i started off by landing at 270 and sliding the last 90*

probably not what your supposed to do but hey, helped me learn them.

360shuv, kickflip and one w2w air. Im riding a •••••• old Kampus with foam and ZERO concave. I HATE IT! Im gonna buy a Byerly or LF wakeskate this spring.

i wouldnt doubt those old kampus decks. so much progression went down on the k39.

but concave is sooo nice

Anthony, its all about the zariel

(scott_a) · (scott_a) **Join Date: Dec 2002** 12-30-2007, 1:33 PM

That Zariel is a freakin TANK! So freakin heavy! And that's even compared to an SST.

This year I hope to just have fun just like I do every year. I'll continue to ride and hang out with my friends...maybe make some new ones...and get some mo' photos published in Alliance's wakeskate magazine.

Scott, one of my good friend rode one at radar, and says that when its under you, it feels relitivly light, and that shuv tricks were suprisingly easy.

not sure what the 44" is for though,

Yeah, I haven't had a chance to ride it, even though one has been collecting dust in my garage for a month now. I will agree that the dual level boards don't feel as heavy when you're riding them, but the heavier the board is, the less responsive they tend to be.

where did you get yours?

Because i ride for them and i havn't gotten mine yet...

I work for a rather large pro shop. Every once in a while a rep will drop by with a prototype deck or sample or whatever for us to check out. This particular deck belongs to one of my co-workers who has lent it to me so I can check it out and shoot some pics of it for an upcoming article on a bunch of the different bi-levels that are coming out.

Okay, that explains it.

I was supposed to get one a few weeks before INT nationals through a board shop that sponsers me before i got on Ronix as a part of a deal the manager and Paul Obrien had made while he was at Radar for the dealers meeting. But they didnt have enough into production yet, which is perfectly understandable, i mean by the time of INT nationals, there were only 4 in existance. But I should be getting mine here pretty soon.

Who is your rep?
