h0nkey46,

The rails are about 1/2" thick so you can re shape them 4 or 5 times.

grouch (or anyone) can you explain a little about the benefit of sanding them and how it changes the ride etc...
thanks

warlock,

The way I sand mine down is just the opposite of how I would detune my snowboard. I round off the edges in the middle so it breaks free easy for lip tricks, but I sharpen the tip/tail so when I edge in for w2w it will catch.

This also allows me to ride finless.

10-4 thanks for the info... makes a lot of sense.

warlock,

No Problem...The rails are also pretty thick so you can reshape them numerous times.

when i first got my integrity i rounded my rails and love it, but ive been wanting to try w2w but i cant seem to edge hard enough. so i sharpened the the rails except for the middle foot. it edges a whole lot better but i still prefer the round rails for all my other stuff. im planning on rerounding the edges but what do you guys think will give me the best of both worlds?

UK is Great Britain, but they are from the United States. They have a uk site and a US site. Erich Schmaltz (he IS Integrity wakeskates) is from California which is where I think their operations are based out of.

Get with Nick Taylor on shaping too. He has had some pretty good luck & I'm going to work with him to shape my team. I listen to him alot until he needs $$$ then I try to ignore him. Laughing

The corporate headquarters Laughing

is based out of Oregon. This is so the consumer wont have to pay sales tax. The boards can only purchased online, since you have to pay for shipping it balances it out.

The boards are mfg. in San Diego, CA and than Erich ships them from his place. I am in SoCal and feel free to PM me with any questions.
