no questions get a new board. imo the scape is one of the worst boards made get something shorter and with concave.

ZackFL(BRE), good one d bag

jwise, if you feel that your board is holding you back then it might be time for a new board. But if not, spend your money on gas instead. You're pretty young and i dont know of many good solid wood boards that are small besides the Austin Pastura New and also I recommend checking out sattelytes as well. Right now sattelytes are my favorite wood board.

JIM-BRANTON, I'm sure you don't like it when people pick you for your integrity wakeskate collection and your money, blah blah blah. So quit lurking and waiting to call out jwise. You did it on that byerly thread too...

jwise, i think you definatly should look into getting a new board soon.

scapes are fun for just crusing, but if you actually want to progress i'd go with basically any concave on the market right now.

i started out riding a scape and i learned a few tricks on it, but i didnt start actually learning stuff and having more fun than wakeboarding til i got a concave.

plus, i tried riding my friends scape a few weeks ago and i could barely even shuv that thing Smash

well if you keep the board around it wont be wasted.
theres sooo many different boards out there. search and decide what you dig. dont let anyone tell you what board you want just take advice and check them out

you could just get a smaller flat deck for pretty cheap. concave is not a necessity

For a smaller board I'd suggest an Oak 40", Integrity 39", or Gator Impala
