does anyone have any insight as to how to get a NEW wakeskate? i've been meaning to order one for a while now, and visiting their website today i saw that they no longer sell directly to customers. is it still possible to get one? are there other companies that offer good, durable wood concaves for less than $200?

Classy, well Remote and Woodworks as well as Goodwood are all produced by NEW anyways... I'm pretty sure don't quote me on it. As far as NEW you can't order boards personally from them, but our shop has some nice Shop Decks made from NEW that are selling for $280 retail let me know if you would like one of those!

new is going through some changes (all for the good!) and we will have to see what the future holds.

i thought that company wake owned remote. i know that integrity is pressing the vandall and nicola boards. if new is making the remote skates, what does company actually produce?

i know. i just thought they were different. i'm not sure why i'm under that assumption though. no wonder none of their shizzle is out yet. they have no control over the production process

is that a factual statement?

mojo, look at the two boards andy and ben ride.
Remote is just gonna be pressed by NEW, But i don't think it should matter. It is still gonna be a remote.

im waiting on them so i can get a remote or woodworks. is scott a. incorrect? IMO, it is sad that a start up company won't be making their own stuff. what happened to the good old days when companies had factories and workers producing stuff onsite?

it's just my opinion. i love company's team and products so far. same with remote. i just thought they were going to be more like the big boy people who show the out of country out sources how it's done.
