Nice, awesome custom boards there! Interesting how Grain grinds out the concave with a grinder instead of building it up like some other companies. I wonder if that makes it a more durable skate??

I would get the suction cup then the separate goose neck for $15. The suction on those are extremely strong. Also, I have the 3 1/2 inch black and orange harbor freight clamp, and it takes two hands t ...

Maybe use a thin layer as a grind base on a wood deck.
That's actually exactly what I was thinking too. Do a wood board with a Ptex base material.

And on second thought, I'm not sure it would even float.

Hey guys, I've been planning on building a lot of wakeskates this summer out of wood, and was actually planning on picking up some marine ply this week. I even bought a vacuum bag to make it easier so ...

Nice edit! I liked how it wasn't just all wakeskating, you incorporated other things you did also. Here's one I did over the summer and edited on GP Studio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GILYOa_emYg ...

I agree with Nick. With a little practice it's not hard to line up a shot. And since it has such a wide angle lens it's pretty hard to mess up.

I've been using GoPro's for 4 years come this December. I've used my original HD Hero for the past 3 years, then last January I picked up a 3+ black edition for an early birthday present for myself. I ...

Seadoo just posted a youtube video showing this cool new device for the spark:

I wonder if Nick had any say in this; I read somewhere he said it wasn ...

Thanks esnow! So by adjusting my technique you just mean moving my back foot more towards the tail and kicking down harder? How does my front foot look? Should that be moved more forward?

Can anyone give me some tips? Just started to ollie this summer. I feel like I can ollie higher by leaning back instead of actually punching my back foot down, is this correct? Should my front foot be ...

Colder weather is coming. I think my project this winter will be to build a wakeskate out of bamboo! I'm talking to some lumber shops right now trying to get prices and shipping all sorted out. The sh ...

Here it is! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVzQHG6HD-U&list=UUoii0Tw5bEZWt6-MkDmfhxg

I would try hydro turf. They make mats for jetskis and stuff, but you can buy sheets of it. It's pretty expensive if I remember correctly. I have it on my ski and it would work perfectly for a wakeska ...

Thanks guys. The lake is the 2nd cleanest in New England, you can drink out of it! I probably won't add a layer of fiberglass, wouldn't it make it too heavy?? Do any expensive wood skates use fibergla ...

What epoxy are you going to use?
For fixing this one I just used general pc7 epoxy you get at any hardware store. For my next board I will probably use the same titebond glue for the layers but then ...

Here are a few shorts clips of me riding my homemade wakeskate today. I will try to get more up when I get home in a week.

Quick update, rode well this morning. Sadly some sections on the sides delaminated a little bit. Nothing to worry about though I'm fixing it with some epoxy right now. If anyone is attempting this pro ...

Didn't get out on the new board today Sad

had a problem with the power valves on my jetski. Hopefully all fixed though, gonna go out tomorrow morning Smash

Thanks guys! I'll try to get a video up tonight, gonna be tough with no wifi I'll have to use my hotspot. Very Happy
