Of every board I've ever ridden (I've ridden most of them), the Integrity wakeskate has the easiest flip by far. It has helped me learn every flip trick I can do, and has lasted longer than any other board I've ever seen anyone go through...

deltarider500, Get a fvcking life. You post way too much, and most of the time its like 3 pointless posts in a row. You comment on something you know nothing/little about, and most of the time your comments go unnoticed. You just try to get in other people's convos(who know what they are talking about), and they just ignore you. I've been trying to do the same but I've had enough and had to say something, Go away.

i think it has to do with flip style. i seriously doubt drew would like an integ an dthe way they flip, he is so sick on his flips too just a different style ya know?

headhuntermx4, what do you mean?

-I'm not being a smart ass, just I am no where near knowing how it feels to do different style of flip tricks (let alone doing flip tricks at all) and am curious what you think.

deltarider500, ok dude..i'm not normally a d!ck on here, but i am getting tired of kids (like you) posting random ass sh.it for no reason other than to boost your post count..please stop now, having tons of posts doesnt make you cool, it doesn't make anyone 'like' you more, and it doesn't make you get a boner... thank you

and to anyone who is going to tell me "you don't have to read it" or "chill out"..thanks but no thanks

headhuntermx4, That's true about the flip trick style, but I've actually watched his and tried to feel his (and about every other pros) style on kickys and all that (Hampson's is my favorite to do), but really, you can do drew style kickys (I can't do them as big Shocked

) on the integrity.

skate_hyperlite, The pros of the integrity include, but are not limited to: Last longer than any other skate on the market, is owned and operated by wakeskaters and one of the OG's of the industry, was perfected BEFORE it was put up for sale, and is very customizable when it comes to how high/low you want it to sit on the water... can't think of any cons except it might last too long, if that's possible...

As for the LF, it's owned by Kent Sporting Goods, which = corporation. I also hear it falls apart quickly, but seeing as I've never owned one, I'm not really qualified to speak on it...

yep........that's true about the Impulse.

I loved my '05 Impulse 43, but after 2 months of riding, the paint started coming off in giant chunks. My shop honored the warranty, traded me for a new '05 Impulse 41. That one lasted 2 days before a giant crack opened up down the edge. Shop says they'll trade me for an '06 when they come in; hopefully LF found a better finish material for '06.

senorbueno, im saying that i think the older riders, liek drew feel right at home on the mainstream cassette design, drew straight mobs his kickflips in sfumato and i think the weright of the would is cruicial to that style and his f/s flips are outta this world on the gator boards.
and then u have the newer kids coming up on boards like the integrity doing kickflips like skateboards, ie nick taylor. and i know that nick could prob kickflip a lunch tray but i think his style is supported by the shape and style of the integ. and i think drews is supported by the older style of boards. basically any one can flip any board around just some cater to people style better than others.

cornut, a certain someone i know has gone through a handfull of 06's so dont get ur hopes up, but those were like the first of the presses and the last one is holding up longer than the previous others so it may have been a prob that got sovled.

skate_hyperlite, there is a lot of other boards out there just those two are the most popular boards out there right now. u also have u bilevel. heavy but efficient. u have oak, u have distortion, u have sattylite, u have L13, u have soon omen, u have a bunch of others that just arent as popular right now.
