I've made a couple wakeskates and they arn't very hard at all if you have the right tools and materials.


-1/8 inch russian birtch
-Marine grade epoxy
-a jig or press to give it rocker
-atleast 25 c clamps along with bar clamps and whatever else you can use
-A disk sander for shaping if you want a concave skate

But big Dee is right there are soooooo many topics.
