Not trying to develop a long thread here or anything, but evan park, you are entirely wrong on the lf stuff that cassette never tried. First, the assym. board, cassette developed this (while being distributed by lf), still uses/produces, and actually makes what a "true" asym. board is about, (and that means not just width in the nose and tail). Second, the "sculpted" top,you mean a top that is concaved like a skate deck, CNC'd out, right? Yeah that is cassette too, probably explains why there wood decks resemble a shape that was produced 3 years ago with the cassette label on it... And the last two, the foam top, well, it might be preferred by some riders, but it is simple physics, the foam absorbs "energy" when pressure is applied for an ollie, a direct contact with a board is more desireable, (like grip tape), then that of foam, foam is "grippy" though in the water. If not agreed apon, take a look at the shoes on your feet, do they give, yes, well that is because of the "absorbing" foam in between your feet and the ground. Last, the 3 stage rocker profile that your friends a lf have, is the same rocker developed by thomas in the early years of wakeskating, so, I guess cassette has not tried any of the ideas that lf is releasing for '05. Do your own research, and realize where your companies' wakeskate product evolved from........

Heh Pirate. I did a split trying to ride away from the v-flip, and my front foot wouldn't come off the board, thereby injuring me worse.
