further progression

at what point does everyone think we'll see k-flips to rail slides or 270 shuvs to rail slides? seems like around now would be the time to take it to that next level.

Within the last year the sport has developed very quickly as is.
a 270 shuv to rail slide was done in the skate section of relentless i think.
I've seen k-flip to rail slides at cable parks, except it was a fun box.

This is what I think...

This year will be the biggest year for wakeskating progression... after this year it will slow down abit

i think wakeskating progression is already slowing down. right now we are limited to kflip, vflip, hardflip for the big flip tricks. heelflip and tre flip will be landed, not anytime soon i dont think. well i really have no clue

i think last year and early this year was the biggest time for it, its going start slowing down from now on... i mean look at GD's frontside flip in the flats... nicks hardflips, lemons perfect variels... the next biggest things are 3 flips and heel flips which i know have been landed. but i think from now on, its gunna slow down wiht knew stuff.

i think its going to become more about consistency(sp?) and taking things to new places (w2w, rails, streets?)

I agree with greg on this. The next level is taking some of this crap wake to wake. Obviously, there was a bit of a buzz with reed's no grab shove, and grubb has been receiving some attention for his massive wake to wake antics.

electricsnow, there was a vid in the media center of some guy landing a no grab w2w shuv before reed did.

I wasn't talking about who did what first. I'm referring to the media--both wbm and alliance were psyched on their wake to wake reed shots.

All these flip tricks are going to be taken to the wake. w2w sex change, w2w v-flip, hardflip. How about a w2w backside flip, or a bigspin off the rail. Maybe a w2w frontside shuv to stalefish. I also like the integrity section where Lemmons free-lances the log and ollies over the stick. It's like urban style but ohh aqua -urban.

I can't believe nobody has showed off their heelflip, it's long overdue.

This is the most exciting sport on the planet, I don't see it slowing down. Ever!

yea ts definately gonna be really big, but hopefully (and probably) wont get as big as skateboarding and get too mainstream to where they have anna nicole doing it on mad tv or on disney and crap.

Can a 360 off-axis be done on a wakeskate??? Idea

not unless it was grabbed.. and then you gotta worry about the handle unless you land cuffed. you woul dhave to grab really early it would be hard
