Go for some Uggs...great traction, great support, and they are loaded with style...

I used to rock the Uggs, but then the grip tore them up. I dont suggest them.

They are full of style though. Especially after I stenciled some sweet logos on them and added some studds. With no laces there was plenty of room for all kinds of sweet shizzle.

They were so punk looking.

zappos or any skate site that sells shoes. use google

or ambush/buywake has a limited edition pair which are suppose to be better for wakeskating.

kyle13, now that you mention it i may have had some knock offs. Real Uggs are just too expensive. But i really didnt like how the fur lining stuff soaked up all the water. really inhibited my skating.

My opinion, dont skate in Uggs.

I like the Byerlys, but some people have problems with the way they feel.

Erich Schmaltz wakeskates in Chuck Taylors, I love that...

el, I like byerlys too, but I dont think my opinion counts, b/c I ride a gate too

Unless they're the KS-01's he's riding, then probably not... (the other ones have leather panels...)
