Wakeside has them for $129. I don't have a skate as of now and was thinking of picking one up. I like skates from 39"-41" and the Control is 39".

I would replace it with grip.

free shipping to boot.

yay or nay?

not true. 07 LF skates are legit. have you ridden one yet?

in my opinion, a 39 is a little small. i rode one a few times last year and it didnt feel right to me.

The Impulses are Legit, according to wakeside, everything else is still made in China. Think about it, they are not going to charge $100 more for grip as opposed to EVA, they are supposedly the same shape as the new Impulses, only made in China, that is why they are CHEAPER!

I just picked up a K41 from the-house.com for $69 with free shipping. haven't had a chance to ride it yet though.

urinal mint, dude, that board isnt going to last. even the 07 40s wont. if you want something around that size i would recomend the sattelyte 40 success. i just got mine yesterday and it looks so solid.

No big deal, I don't expect mine to last long. It's a $70 skate Laughing

I like the flex of the 7-ply flat wood decks for some reason.

That control is not that good. There isn't much concave and its very wide, my brother got one and wasn't realy happy with it. I have tryed it out and it had a lot of pop. Even tho I ride grip the foam was not that bad, but it was a little hard to shuffle your feet around. I love liquid force and I ride still them. I think that modle wasn't that good because they didn't have realy and great wakeskaters on they team. The new ones are awsome, problay because of all they good riders.
