Note that this drawing is NOT from Cassette. It is my idea of how it will work.

Should work now.

Nice Drawing Laughing

Just from a reliability and safety aspect I think your scale is wrong!

I figured it was wrong. Thanks for the input though Very Happy

Thomas and those guys can do it better than me.

wtf? id never ride that crap. its way too gimicky, people who try to change the way you make boards every year and try to change the sport are gay, man all you need is a basic non-gimmicky board. you dont need super high kicktails like the gate and crap, just a regular simple skate. all these new designs are gunna screw up the sport. $$$ Smash

I really don't think so...

What if people in the 80s who skated said: hey man, drop it with those twin tip boards with a kick tail and a kick nose, you guys are nuts...

The Gate was DUMB in design: it's a hype concave to which they added kick tail/nose... They didn't design the board around the fact they wanted more kick tail/nose Mad

About the Bi-Level, it is only 1/8th of an inch between the two decks. So It will pretty much feel like a single deck under your feet I'm sure.

Now we just need to see how it rides.

Wakeskating is so new that companies really need to experiment with different stuff to see what works better. A big up to Cassette for trying new things. And since their RIDERs (not designers) felt like it was a great design, then it should be, really Razz

Well, isn't that exactly what integrity is trying to do, "revolutionize" wakeskates with their unique not wood, and also not compression molded material that is supposedly the best wakeskate ever??? And why bash the bi-level if you haven't even tried it yet?

is the top deck just gonna be like a skateboard deck? if not i wouldnt even see the point of makin a bi-level. it would be like the catalyst but you could see thru the middle of it

bi level is about leverage, top deck will most likely ressemble a sk8 deck, but who knows Rolling Eyes

Whhhhhhhattt!!! This seriously blows my mind... My friends and i have already seen something like this before. About three years ago when i made a board just like the one they are describing. i want to see there pictures of it because i know the problem that we had with ours that it was just too heavy.

do they make any other kind of board like this like a snowskate or sumthin to compare how this idea works?

do a search for BI-DECK snowskates...

the bi level snow skates have a different concept. the bottom deck is skinnier like a ski so that you can carve in the snow. unlike a single deck snowskate where you can only really go straight.

ok is anyone else thining about kickflips on this board?

Morphine · Backside 180 Joined: 03 Jun 2004 Posts: 1207 City: 706omg

Me. From what i read in the WBM article someone posted, the bulk of the board is about the same. It's only 1/8th of an inch between them. I'm thinking it will be almost, if not exactly the same.

if thise board has two levels....will it weigh like the same as 2 boards...like 12lbs....cuz thatd suck

nick · Posted: Aug 04, 2004 1:33 pm Post subject:

Cassette owns, we all know that. But there are other companies that are good. You can't be like "Cassette fo life" and just HATE all other companies because they just aren't on the level that cassette is on.

Morphine, Cassette does down own. They make damn good skates but I agree with rukusrider103. They are movin towards sales in my mind, if Im buyin a skate I want something proven. Except for my scape because I needed something to see if I liked skating, boy was that POS a mistake...
