CHINA

You know, I support American made products, especially when it comes to wake. Which, really bums me out, cause I just called the Ronix factory to check on the Zariel, only to find out that they are here and are on trucks- as the shipment from CHINA just came in... I guess I could have figured everything is mass produced there. But we all know how high quality the chik-et-a china is... this sucks, I was hoping maybe Canada

Go with companies that build boards in house like Integrity, New, Devotid, etc...

just because someone doesn't build a board in house, doesn't mean the boards/company are shizzle. Cassette used PS Stix, and outside of that first batch of bi-levels, the boards were sick. Mikey does not make his own boards "in house" but you can bet he's hands on throughout the process, ensuring his and oak's presence and longevity in the industry. The list goes on and on...
