ok kidds let me teach you todays lesson, wakeboard companies and reps and shops arent stupid. kids are a board companies/shops target. you can tell a 12,13 14 year old here is some gear for cheap whatever we hook you up basically lead you to bleieve that you ride for them and they will hook you up once or whatever and they know that because of that you will talk them up and all and well always come back and spend your money only there. there comming ahead in this deal by hooking you up once. its buisness. let me tell you from experience when you get to be my age you come to realize it and you feel kinda stupid. its good buissness though _________________ the only thing worse then the freshman 15 is the freshman 9lbs 5oz |

wakeskate77, gee and we've been in the dark all this time? I buy my stuff from a shop because they give me like 10%-20% off. I dont ride for them thye just give me that. Its because of this I go back
sim, if you mean a backside lip slide then there not all that much harder then backside board slides ( I cant do them but I can on my skateboard). Switch ollies aren't no biggie. _________________ Llamas are better then Alpacas

yea no fear was practiacally giving out sponsorships randomly last summer. I recievged one but never turned in the paperwork because i realized how bogus it was. It was a 40% discount though, but i didn't wear no fear so. _________________ ow thats gonna hurt tomorrow |

No Fear were throwing money around everywhere last year. It was the same in england as they just set up 'No Fear Europe' as a seperate group. They turned too many people pro, and sponsored too many events, spending loads of money, and then folded after a year. no official reason yet though. But they owe me, Ben Hitch, Jack Wayne and Matt Crowhurst money and stuff so we're not best pleased!!
