Dude....They are the biggest companies and they get the sport alot of publicity and I dont like them anymore than the next but they do alot....Hype threw down like ten million for insurance for my school rail jam

Man I do understand where your coming from, but I geuss thats not a "technological" advance. Dont get me wrong, plublicity is deffinatly needed, but thats a whole diffrent thing. Tight for hype to throw down that kinda cash for you tho.

I think the results of that poll are more representative of the question, "What brand of wakeskate is most recognized by wakeboarders?"

What you need to recognize is that poll was done on wakeworld. Most of the people on that site are the biggest tools.

tyler222s, they are kinda new, I would have categorized them in other, although I love my deck...

I think cassette should've been on the list, and if it was a neck and neck tie, put it between cassette and integ or mutiny... But not all the mainstream company's... WTF has gator done for wakeskating!! They make some sick decks, but the duece pop? Cassette... Concave decks, Cassette if I'm not mistaken. Just about every wooden concave is a mimmick of the 4-Trac, even the oaks are...

integ = mutiny

I can't believe that people actually voted for obrien and Jstar on that

....Does Jstar make skates?

K heres my explanation for it lol. Most likely, more than half of the people on wakeworld don't skate. So they see the poll and are like "Hey that company makes my wakeboard, so i guess I'll vote for them." so i think they just vote for their favorite wakeboard company cuz they dont know shizzle about skates. just my 2 cents Smash

marshk344, most half of the people on wakeworld don't wakeboard either...same for wakeboarder.com

freerider4 i know but i said both because it started with mutiny and now it's being carried on with integrity so i listed both, they should both be listed on there because they both helped the sport a lot.

hmm...what out of the bunch has a new shape for 06? if you dont have a new shape for 06, then you have no technical advances for this year. i can only think of TNT's and Reed's as far as new shapes are concerned. what other new 06 shapes are there?
