| Me and my friends were planning on buying a cheap wakeskate and a cheap wakesurf board but i thought it might be a waste of money So can you use a wakeskate as a wakesurfboard??? Thanks |

| i've tried a whole bunch, it doesnt work.... a wakesurf board is a lot wider then a skate and more bouyant i guess. a skate is 2 small to be able to ride without the rope. |

It's fun to play on a wakesurf wake using a wakeskate, but you won't be able to let go of the rope.

use a skim board, like one of those ZAP boards, made of foam, and wax it up and put 3 fins on tha back and its perfect, you can even get a foam pad for the back

Why do you have to post when you don't know the answer to the question?
It does not work the board is to small to keep going without the rope. |

Parky,
He asked a legitimate question and you gave him an answer that wasn't based on experience just your normal dumb answer to pad your post count? So why don't you lay off. |

what you gotta look at is if it will almost float when you aree laying on it, becuase you can lay a surf and it floats for the most part. whne you lay on a skate it basicly sinks. so thats y you can use a skate as a surf.

jd, you really need to lay off, i know you might find it annoying that he posts so much, but if you hate it so much, just skip his posts, just look for his avatar, and when you see it, dont' read the post, its that simple. frankly you callin him out all the time is more annoying than his posts. If that post had been by anyone else would you have said anything, deffinatly not. tell me why his post is more useless than this

xboardx, not tryin to say your opst was useless or anything, just usin it as an example
