Ok, so I have a widget on my mac that allows me to convert lengths and I put in the Catalyst lengths to find out how many inches they were. I can't believe Brian Grubb rides a 44" skate. On top of that they offer the 45" model. I could never imagine riding such a huge skate. Thoughts?

You can also find the length of boards by Dividing the inches by .394 or Multiplying the millimeters by .394.

agreed, they are like wakeboards, with the nose and tail cut down and no straps. If you ask me, they should call their boards freestyle wakeboards. Smash

Jesse, way over the head of most on this forum IMO.... Smash Smash

Grubb makes that monster board look like it ain't so big though.

now now.....come on, be nice. I have had the opportunity to ride quite a few skates and even have a guy who makes whatever shapes I want. However, I am going to buy a Byerly Legacy 39 here in a few weeks when Glass and Powder gets them in. I am still going to have him shape me skates to my liking from wood, but I am really looking forward to a change-up, and think this new board will be pretty sweet! I am pretty sure that Grubb and Byerly don't just deal with whatever hyperlite throws at them. I would think they come up with what they like and shapers make it for them. But then again, maybe I am wrong....would someone like to enlighten me?
