So everybody I have to get new wakeskate shoes and I can's decide on a pair. So can you tell me the best wakeskate shoes to buy.

Quite a few choices these days, so probably just personal preference, but.....

My DVS dresdens were very comfy, but the mesh tore up pretty fast.

I'm rockin' the reef byerly 2's now; a little stiffer than the dresden's, but holding up very well. They seem to drain & dry faster, too.

dont know about the best but i do know dresdens probably arent the best.
i know these dont look like much and arent really skate like, but they have three places (toe, middle, heel) that have holes in the sole for draining and are very durable. dont hold any water at all. my dad bought a pair just to show me cause he thought it would be a perfect skate shoe, other companies should take teh idea.

dresdens dont last very long. dvs mesh milans have lasted me a long time. I heard the tread on the byerly IIs wears out really fast?
