that was absolutely incredible!

Do yall think wakeskating will ever have a “dreamland” where wakeskaters are just boosting off insanely huge ramps and rails like this? I mean its possible, who would have thought skating the streets and pools in the beginning would have led to this? Like 30 years from now wakeskating is at this level with helicopter stunts going off. Im sure theres people out there that are like no it would look stupid blah blah blah, but you have to appreciate what bobs doing here. Idk but im trippin out right now.

The level of mastery required to skate like that is mindblowing. It's kind of cool to see that parks-esque ender stunt of hanging onto that chopper and skydiving off of it.

This is insane. Kickflip to 50 50 over a gap like that Crazy Eyes

Anyone ever seen that old Built to shred episode featuring both Nick Taylor and Bob Burnquist? I about died.

I want to see a wakeskate backflip landed on video. Iv'e heard rumors that someone did one off a kicker but Iv'e never seen it. I know there are some people that are like oh leave that to the wakeboarders, but it's not like wakeskating is going to turn into all inverts or something. It would just be a select few who could actually pull off a trick that insane. Kinda like how it is in skateboarding.
