yea LF splits, hyperlites are too lite, the kampus boards ride funny, 03 cassette decks are sick as hell but good luck finding one, the 484 boards are copys of cassette, it turns out that 484 is actually police code for "stolen" and yea they are exact copys of cassettes, hmm who would have thought? i've never riden one so i cant tell you if the wood is good or not. dont even think about getting a mutiny or a cwb skate from some catalog, integrity is this super sick new company coming out with these insane boards by one of the most respected guys in wakeskating so alot of people are putting their trust in integrity. the boards actually arnt wood or composite, its more like snowboard material and i think that would ride sick and last forever. id definatly get an integrity. _________________ <3 mmmm |

ive got a '03 kampus swing and my friend has a '03 cassette concave and a '04 kampus Lief he likes both. ive ridden the '03 cassette and i dont like it as much as the swing except the kicktail but you can get kicktail kits from kampus to put on your board it is easier to edge and rotate on the swing. |

random posts? parky.....thats WAY beyond the pot callin the kettle black...and besides...its not that big of a deal: its the INTERNET...chill a little
and as far as companies go....INTEGRITY, Cassette, Kampus, Hyperlite (if you like how they ride), and thats about all I can think of. Liberation is also a good company to look into if you like foam grip... just try and ride it before you get it so you know that you like it. And have fun.

Dude if you're on a budget then you'll probably end up with a flat skate in that case grab a kampus any kampus they all ride really awesome for flat skates I ride a Hyperlite Gate but there pretty pricey and alot of people don't like the weight (too light) but my cousin rides Kampus gear and I've ridden them there nice BUYWAKE.com has Kambus boards on closeout you should check them out _________________ why dont you try playing hide and go Fvck yourself |
