holy shizzle dude you live in fiznackling egypt thats crazy dude!!!! What is the wakeboarding like there, are there any nile crocodiles? and one more thing are you egyptian or an american or some other nationality that moved there. wow egypt crazy. oh yeah and to answer your question when i first started wakeskating before they really had wakeskates I would just put surf wax on my board.

Wow...Egypt. Please tell us more about the scene there. That is pretty wild.

I must say that riding a wakeboard without bindings feels a lot different than a real wakeskate. I hope you are able to get a wakeskate soon so you can see for yourself how much better it feels. Until then, you have to do what you can do to not be locked down to your board.

One thing you may be able to do is make some type of pads that use your binding holes/screws to keep them in place. That may give you a little more grip on the board if you don't want to put grip tape or wax on the top of your wakeboard. With the pads, you could simply take them off and put your bindings back on when you want to wakeboard.

Good luck and I am looking forward to hearing more about the Egyption wake scene and how you make out with your temperary wakeskate. Very Happy

Well it's kinda crazy cuz we are like 5 guys only and we are not pro's,we are all egyptions,first of all egypt has changed alot,it is more like new york right now,so so so fiznackling busy city...The wakeboarding is kinda good cuz the session is all year but in the winter is the best conditions cuz the water is flat every day but a bit cold to be honest but not too cold that u can't ride,if u guys have any thing else u wanna ask about egypt just go for it and i will try to get some pic's for u and thanks for the tips i will try to build me own wakeskate...........Later dudes Twisted Evil
