"If it doesn't start with a 4 then it might as well be waterskiing"
-Matt Manzari on Board Lengths
I dont get how smaller boards make it more like waterskiing.  |

I actually want to try riding a board smaller than 40 inch.
I heard they are good and easier to spin around and shiz. |

im pretty sure he's reffering to wakeboards, saying if you're wakeboarding, you might as well be waterskiing, hence wakeboarding is lame, as is skiing
small decks are where its at!!! _________________ Team Dream Sleds

You guys have one opinion, and he, and perhaps others, share a different opinion. It would be a waste of energy to get wound up about this... _________________ *The opinions expressed are on my behalf and not those of wakeskating.com* |
