I was scrolling the #wakeskate on instagram and came across this "company". Do these look like painted integritys to anyone else? Anyone know anything about this company? Insta says they are outa Texas.

I wanted to use an original work from a local artist that would be different and unique, letting the artist do what he wanted to do to really make it his. Johnny(jenkins2d), the artist, has a very outlandish style to his work that sets him apart from the herd. Contradictory, I, myself am a fan of the traditional, simple, clean, team logo style. But this was not supposed to be about me.
On another note:
Thank you for showing an interest in Resyn Wakeskates. We have been testing prototypes for the last 2 years, in hopes of making a board that would be fun for all aspects of wakeskating; park, boat, ski, winch and whatever other crazy ideas this sport leads to. I wanted to take the shape to a different direction than I have noticed some of the bigger companies going on this first board. And because of that I felt it appropriate for a "different" graphic. These are super fun to ride, incredibly controllable, and when it comes to durability I would put them up against any wooden board on the market. The base material slides incredibly fast on boxes and rails, but seems to hold up to the toughest riding.
Our temporary website just went up with inventory available, resynwake.com. Follow on instagram @resynwakeskates. Hope to have more shapes, clothing, and media available soon.
This has been a passion of mine since the first time I unstrapped my boots and hoped on a wakeskate. With the help of some great friends, Resyn is stoked to be able to have a part in the industry and share Resyn's products and ideas with everyone. We can not wait to see what the next year holds!
Thanks,
Resyn Wakeskates

Resynwakeskates, Welcome, can you post some more pics of the decks? top, concave, rocker shots? Are they manufactured by new? I love the graphic, its VERY different and looks good and refreshing compared to all the graphics out there now. Keep it up! good luck.

Thanks!!! Yes, Robin at Octopus Manufacturing(aka NEW) has been a huge help in manufacturing my designs. Here are a few quick pics. The Duncan, our current board avalible to the public, has a 2" continuous rocker. It is a very thin board, only about an inch at the thickest point. Also 12" wide at nose and tail and a little under 16" at the center. Being a larger footed individual, I have always had a problem dragging my toes or heels when edging on other boards. The pictures don't really do the top concave justice in my opinion but you get the idea. I have another prototype that I am particularly fond of with a 3 stage rocker, slightly less aggressive top concave, and sharper edge but I don't have it available to public just yet. Once we get a little more inventory sold and some exposure I will get the next shape out. Working on a few grip tape ideas as well.

Resynwakeskates, Thanks for the pics! That's why that shape looks so familiar cuz Robin's crew has made me decks for years lol, i love the shallow concave and thinner board, good option for people not interested in the current deep concave trend in decks. And we all know NEW decks don't fall apart, so you got a good thing going! Good luck.

Would be awesome to have a "demo" board to go around the community
If that is not possible then maybe a unbiased party in TX can demo one and give a opinion of the ride. Im interested in one of your decks but would like to try it out first or hear the feedback on how they perform in the water....just my .02

We used to have a few community decks that we all traded around all we did was pay for shipping, but it only takes one thief to ruin a good thing like that.....

-=AlexXx=-, you aren't kidding...I think it was a Sprocket America deck a couple years back that made the rounds. Such a great idea until like you say, that one person messes everything up.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not.

Frye, 98% sure he is being serious with that based on just his personal experience with 2-3 custom boards he had NEW make him.

I really like the "IDEA" of having a demo passed around, BUT like -=AlexXx=-, stated, there is always that one person. I am definitely open to feedback on shape and design. Would love to hear suggestions on future boards. I should have some more inventory coming in this weekend. If so would anyone be interested in purchasing a board with a 60 day money back guarantee? The board would have to be returned (including shipping) for a full refund. Or if you like the board; keep it, write a review, get a free t-shirt and a bunch of stickers. If you are in the Central Texas area, I am looking into setting up a demo day with one of the local parks. Leaning towards Vision, BSR, or maybe Hydrous.
This is good stuff guys. Keep the feedback coming. Just a small start up based on my ideas and the help of a few friends. But hope to use a collective of ideas and thoughts from as many riders as possible to make some sick boards.
