OK, i RARELY post, just read (and i have been reading this site since back when it was on that primitive message board, basically since the beginning)...anyways, every post is turning into the same thing eventually. Integrity is best, no Bi-levels are best...no buy a Lemons, wait no buy a Kampus Lief.......seriously, grow up. Be serious about stuff when people have serious questions. If a question is dumb, dont post and it will die out quickly

Albeit, its pretty dumb to start a thread about what is the best deck. But come on, dont rep whatever board you think is sexiest in every post. ANd spend more time wakeskating than you do on the internet reading message boards.

ya im with everyone who said its all youre own opinion wich board is your favorite most of the time i would say the board you ride is the one you feel is the best board ever

In my opinion the Hyperlite Gate is the best board ever but thats becuase i ride it and like it and got used to it and it suits the needs im looking for and has the feel i like

and M@, trust me i spend a lot lot more time wakeskating then posting and reading this but last i checked there is a thing called night time and rainy days when and where you are unable to ride or do anything else so why not be on here an post

I personally <3 my Integrity 04 team deck, I like the customizability aspect of it along with the durability and simplicity of design. It's just solid. Plus I've progressed the most on it. I want to try an 05 deck and see for myself if they ride as good as they look, hah...

I vote for any of the mutiny decks. it was a simpler time in the wakeskate community. the Integrity's progressed from the perserverance deck. Erich was/is revolutinizing wakeskating with those decks, and it was an exciting time to be a part of this very young "sport".
The best deck I have ever ridden is the 04 Integrity. I have not ridden an 05 but here they are that much better.
Second to that is the perserverance, which blew me away when I got to ride it.
Finally, the 03 4-track is a kick a$$ deck. I have not ridden any of the newer cassettes(partly cause you can't get them around here, which is bull$hit. the newest cassette I have seen around here the 4 track I own Rolling Eyes

) But the 03 4-track really performs.

What ever happened to Rock™ adhesisve? That glue/sealant that made wood seemingly invincible to water?

"Rock" became no more when Taylor-Dykema crumbled...
And the board that I love the most is the Endurance concave(Mutiny).

I like the bi-level, when it was in one piece. The 04 reed is a dope ass skate.

The 2004 4-trac that never really got released.
There was one in the UK that thomas sent over for Craig McCulloch (cassette UK rider) to have, and it is hands down the sickest board I've ever ridden. I loved the '03 green 4-Trac, but the more subtle shape to the '04 made it awesome.
I have to say I'm digging the tolstoy a lot at the moment.

1) The LF Sponge I had back in the day ('98 I guess. Got me into wakeskating)
2) The very first Cassette Boombox 41" (WOOOOD!)
3) '05 Bi-level 40" (Skateboarding on water! It's still in one piece, knock on wood!)
4) '03 4-Trac (Assymetrical!)
5) '01 3d 41" (Concave)

this is easy, those who rip on the subject should be getting ripped on. but it is all about personal preference. I ride the LEVELTHRITN superstar 41" concave and it is incredible. It slides so well. But I've heard good things about the integrity's. It's too bad about the bilevels delamming. BUt it's sweet that Thomas sends you a new 1.

Mr. Top Hat is totally right. the best wakeskate ever is one you don't have to pay for. I didn't pay for mine and it's awsome.

top 5
1) Kampus Swing (its revitalized my want to skate by being better than my other boards)

2) Cassette 3D 41 b/c it was really the first REAL skate I owned got me so stoked

3)05 Integrity Team 1 word. . POP

4)the chopped gate. . .hey I like it, and it really does make for some sick skate stlye ollies and 180s onfortunately it sucks at lip shizz

5) Kampus K-39 with grip, taught me how to ride finless on a board with out knife edges (aka Gate, and butter)

EDIT: this is my top 5 it is not meant to affect yours, nor is it open for debate, its merely MY TOP 5 as of todays date, however I suspect the Omen may soon take a spot on that list
