just got a trampoline cuz i wanna try and get these flippy tricks on lock. i was messin around on the skate deck today and it was pretty fun, but i dont know if it will screw me up when i get back to the water or should i get the muscle memory down on the wakeskate not sure i saw manzari rockin it on the skate deck and he said that helped him. just looking for yalls opinions Afro

CarterOG308, it will definitely help you out. The skateboard will just be lighter and much easier to flip around. I would say you should use your wakeskate on there just because that is what you'll be riding. It will give you a closer feel to being on the water. Just my opinion.

i use a wakeskate when i tramp board it think it is better beacuse your not fliping around somthing that is lighter and easyer to spin then your real board

Rockin the skate on there.. for me... helps getting the feel down... but the skate deck is just insane fun....

skate decks are soooooo much more fun, i screwed two together hoping that they would make more baby skate decks, no but really the weight is better, i dont suggest using a wakeskate cuz the pop isnt the same as on the water, for kickflips you have to like kick down more and not flick so much.....i dunno, but the tramp most def. helps ur coordination and so on...plus like everyone else said...so much fun

i use an older wakeskate on the trap, it leaves unwanted black marks on my good board Mad

I dont think it will really mess you up. Cause I always use my skate deck and it dosnt mess me up when i get on the wakeskate in the water. skate decks are so much more fun anyways.
