If you really loved wakeskating you would try to convert your old wakeskates to Islam........................ 70 virgins dude, something to think about.

its not worth it IMO I did that to several wakeboards (Icon Best, Hyperlite Byerly, Hyperlite Latitude, Obrien of some sort cant remember the name) they all sucked in comparison to a real skate

as far as advise you probably should cut them down and make sure you seal the ends I dug some of the foam out shoved bullets in for weight and bondo-ed the ends then painted them if your feeling particularly frisky make concave on the top out of bondo and round off the rails but with all that bondo you can forgo the weight addition lol

or buy kiteboarding bindings that you can slip on and put those on the wakeboard. that would be fun to play around with!
