hayden reybolds, what do you want it to weight? or do you think that its too light because a few people say they are not as heavy as an cracked sst or waterlogged wood deck? Smash

the 04 integrity decks were sick, but those things were light as a feather, each year they add a bit of weight. now they have the pro decks with bamboo, the team with birch (heavier), and the simplex which is a full birch core (really heavy)

wakemitch, the simplex is really heavy?

like how much heavier than the team?

daniel, i dont know the actually number but by picking the team up and then the simplex you feel a significant difference. the other thing besides the weight is that the birch is so dense it sits deep in the water making it seem like it weighs even more. i liked it but it was too heavy for me.

daniel, The Simplex is a good 10 lbs, I think the TNT is about 8.

wakemitch, I guess I will find out how I like it. I ike the team over the bamboo for sure, and like the weight on boards. so hopefully it will be good.

wakemitch, you get defensive when people ask for the weight of an integrity.

electricsnow, its just something that has been brought up forever. Integrity decks ride different from other boards. if you are looking for that bilevel weight and feel then you should get a bilevel. you know? people seem to want the boards to ride like something that they are not.

i just never really understood the weight issue.
also im bored at work Twisted Evil

The weight critiques don't seem nearly as bad. It seems like a lot of people are asking the same question (how much do the boards weigh), and there are a lot of different answers out there.

Overall, I think this is the most satisfied people have ever been with integrity's wakeskates and their weight. Any older integrity (04-06) had the fairly common critique of weight, but now, it's pretty rare to have anyone say they're too light.

i got to ride my friends 06 team today and it was pretty sick. its so much easier to kickflip than the 09 tnt

the weight didnt even feel weird to me either........ and i've even been riding my 09 hampson concave lately too which prolly weighs twice as much
