|

| I look at all your pictures and videos and see people slipping around on the water kicking your boards down like your mad at them and I wonder if anyone on this site knows the fundamentals of wakeskating. I can't do any "cool" tricks like you all but I know how to ride my board. The way people are eiding are like they learned a shuvit before they learned a carve. It's like a kid on a skateboard who practices his kickflips everyday but can not roll down a hill. I would rather not be cool and really feel my board then do tricks that are shameful to the progression of the sport. So for now i am content on riding and just learning my board before i slip around into a finless surface shuv. |

ihatethewake, i totally agree with you. People are not learning the basics anymore, so their style is totally crappy. They just slip around finless and dont pop their tricks  |

sk8thewake69, Outside of wakeskating I pretty much have no life, so does that mean wakeskating is who I am? _________________ √ |

I just put the quote up. Its from the sickest Disney movie in the world Brink. I didn't even finish readingihatethewake's first post, and this quote sounded good for what everyone else was saying. _________________ "Get your air on like Aaron" - AR |

Now that I think about it, it was pretty gay. But, dont you remeber back in the day that movie rocked. Best part was when that guy (bad one) through the rocks in the road and when the chica was super rollerblading down the hill, ran them over and got all fu#d up. _________________ "Get your air on like Aaron" - AR |

| first off i have witnesses to back me up...i can pop my sweet spot ollies as high as or close to reeds sweet spot ollie picture that people claimed as photoshop, i can pop some really big flat ollies and huge inside out shuv its everytime, it is all personal prefrence how u ride, i ride finless and my board doesnt even com with fin holes. i believe that if u dont have style u will only have 15min of fame and thats it. u wont go anywhere w/o it, look at any extreme sport, its all about putting ur own signature on everything u do and if u dont w/e no one wastes their time on u. also style is nothing u can just learn, tricks u can learn and wat not. so i say this... if u love riding=ride if u do it for any other reason w/e keep it to ur self and do wat u want. -hunter |

WORD!!!!!!!!!!
i ride finless and pop all my $h@# excepr for my frontside shuvs. cause i cant pop them and land them. but thats my style. i also can land 20 out of 20 of them, so if thats what works for me then guess what im going to do it....... heres a tip, dont worry about how other people ride worry about your own riding if someone does something diff... then thats all it is different. i try to learn everything i can all diff... ways reg, switch ect........ what i'm saying is that before you start calling people out make sure you can bust  |
