Same here. I can only ollie about 75% as high as i used to but, on the other hand my board control and stability is way better. Also i had to adjust to the width of the board... but then again with size 13 feet my they have never really fit well on any deck.

I am just starting to skate again after 10 years and I am amazed on how much I lean against the rope when I am wakeskating. I never really knew that I was doing it untill I got on a wakeskate
