does anyone remember like 2 weeks back a video coming out with nick not riding an integ. i remember seeing it and being like "oh it couldnt be" but now that i know this im going to have to go back and make sure.
and one more thing: nick better have Ron FVCKING Swanson as his tv deck. that is all. _________________ You had me at meat tornado. -Ron Swanson
tyn, he did , and there was one up on integs wall too but it went down as fast as it went up
anyone want to clue us in on what integs Facebook said?
Along the same lines as Lemlems
Just upset that he didnt say something to them in person.
Atleast he waited for the video and all the events to be done.
I dont think money is what drove this decision. Probably more along the lines of teaming up with people who are pushing wakeskating the most.

bachlonso, how is nicks decision moving from Integrity to Remote reflect that "wakeskating has obviously changed from underground to commercial"? Remote is just as independent as Integrity and is much more involved in helping the sport grow.
Jake S, you have to watch it in an holistic context with nike etcetera. it only makes sense then. I might be totally wrong too but to my understanding of the whole industry this is the only thing I can assume.
I'm hoping that nick is going to explain his motives behind his change!

I was shocked to see this, like Marcus said I couldn't imagine Nick riding anything else but Integrity, but I dont think its a negative thing at all. I have a hell of alot of respect for him and I know he had some really good reasons to move and I'm sure in time, he'll share those reasons with us, once all the "hype" has died down.
And lets not forget, people change and move on, thats just a part of life.
Its frustrating the assumed allegiance that people are supposed to have, even if amazing opportunities present themselves. I don't know details but I see this in wakeskating AND in other things in my life (cars, videography). I don't see how anyone or the businesses involved are being hurt by Nicks decision. If Nick was presented an opportunity that would help him either make a better living or be more involved with companies like Nike then why can't we (the wakeskate community) be happy for him. I don't remember this much animosity when Andy and Austin started water monsters. I guess I wrote this because this is what I personally am experiencing with some things in my life so I can relate.
