Wake skate board design

What kind of ideas do you guys have to improve upon wakeskates in general. Do you like the way things are going (ie compresion molded or kicktails) or do u like the basic flat woods. If u could make your own how would you do it?

compresion last 1000x better than any skate but twice the price. I still like on old scape that I got. But havnt been able to ride my gate yet cuz of winter...

all i know is that i got a new liquid force deck and its soo sick seriously its all black and the bottom has sort of a rubberized paint and it slides soo good i think its by far the best board out and you guys should look into getting one oh yeah its the tech 42 by the way

che blanc, here's a pic of the top.
I'm going to re-grip it: grip on 100% of the surface, cause this present grip design sucks.

Parky · Guest

Paul, I like the grip design alot but the stickers look like crap

Parky, don't you like 'Billabong', 'Sector Nine', 'Girl Skateboard', 'Gotcha', 'NeilPryde', etc.???
Keep in mind that all of these are potential sponsors for you...! Laughing

Anyway, I really don't care about these fiznackling stickers! I just want to re-grip my skate.

Ahh paul, A+. It looks like there's an alien workshop sticker on there. Seriously, the board looks really nice. I just have one question for you: how were you able to get that old militia graf on there? Did you make your own stencil or were you able to purchase something from someone...

Whatever you did, it turned out really sharp and it looks nice.
