|
|
Hey guys,
I need some help seeing what wakeskate this is. Someone was tossing it out with another (non-concave) board and was just wondering what this one is. I thought that it may be a 4-trac but I wanted to the pros to tell me if it is or not. Either way i am sanding it down, re-painting it, then sealing it b/c it is kinda rough shape and looks like it needs it.
here is the pics

thanks,
Ryan |

I don't know what happened to it. it had some nasty grip on it and ripped that off before I took those pics. I am trying to redo it this weekend or next and see if I like it more than my Byerly. _________________ http://trihawk.fotki.com

one wadey, you should post a pic of your refurbishing jahb. I'd love to see it...there are like two or three other people on here who have tried to restore the 4-tracs they've found. One actually drew the graphic on it, others just tried to match the green paint to recapture that magic. _________________ *The opinions expressed are on my behalf and not those of wakeskating.com* |

ok.. i will its at my house and im stuck here in the office. so stay tuned. but i didnt really bother with the bottom graphic bc i didnt want it to look too fabricated...i matched the color at home depot ..which took all of ten minutes..sanded all the color of the edges, took some epoxy and fixed some of the cracks, then sanded those down. repainted and re-gripped same grip design..looks sick _________________ Part of the Lifestyle

It's OK...that bottom graphic is pretty intricate. but it's a 4-trac...we love to see those things around here.  _________________ *The opinions expressed are on my behalf and not those of wakeskating.com* |
