Oh my bad I thought this was a wakeskating forum where we discuss wakeskating and things related to wakeskating. My bad for making a post on a wakeskating forum about wakeskating. _________________ http://www.wakeskateclips.com/

you're surprised ryan acting like that?
lofknl.
stay classy ryan.
GO FOR IT NICK.
here's my 2 coppers. i don't know nick from a ham sandwich but i do feel like he would be upfront with integ had he seen a positive, wishful good bye. based on the assumption(from ryans post) that nick didn't tell them, he probably thought it was better. hate to say but that's the business world. |

Nick switching to Remote, still doesn't change the fact that I want to get an Integrity board, those things look badass and from what I see last long too. And the fact thar now he is with remote is something that looks like it was coming for awhile, because in every video I see, he's always hanging out with ben and the guys from remote. I still want both boards (integ and remote) but can't wait to see the new vids that will be pouring out soon.

Wasn't trying to make fun of your post. I'm just being a forum nerd. I thought that Facebook post was definitely interesting as well. Don't mind me. |

Life would get really boring if it never changed. I've always been stunned with peoples weird anxiety towards it. I think this is dope, party on Wayne. _________________ The promise of heaven out of reach.

I agree with this, a little drama is good. |

nick's change to remote was the last thing I would've ever expected! It makes me sad at heart because wakeskating has obviously changed from underground to commercial.
I just can't seem to find anything good in this. To me Nick has always been THE embassador of wakeskating with his distinctive style, wisdom, goodwill, knowledge and overall great personality. He and his riding have influenced my own perception of wakeskating in the biggest and most positive way. I wish it could still be about integrity and dedication.
It's sad to see that at some point it's inevitable to go after the bigger money if you need or want to make a living out of it. To my understanding it must have something to do with Nike also, since board sponsors won't be able to put out high paychecks to their athletes and Remote and Nike are somewhat linked together in wakeskating.
Dear Che Blanc I sincerely respect your decision as it was aimed at further evolving your own riding and pushing wakeskating to new limits. I only hope that it was the right decision though. |

This was really shocking news this morning
But Remote is still such a small company, and they are doing great things for wakeskating. No one is pushing wakeskating harder than remote and nike, so it makes it a great fit for Nick.
I have always been a huge fan of Nick and Integrity. It was weird to realize this morning that things do change and that I had to get over my ideal fanboy collaboration.
I love wakeskating |
