Diets

I saw on instagram that Dieter is no longer with Ronix and gonna start riding his own custom boards. Thought this was very interesting and an out of the box move. I really dig it and look forward seeing what he comes up with as far as shapes and designs. Any thoughts on this move?

Interesting... I won't buy one til after I get my noisia vision disk, ordered in 2011. But aside from that I love his riding style and it only took Ronix 3 years to get his pro model available for sale. Hopefully his are available quicker.

I never got a disk as well.

I'm stoked to see what Dieter does. His pro model from Ronix was a good shape, but the construction was pretty bad.

I just bought one. John ruark has a part in the disk edit, and then keaton and some other dude have edits in the bonus sections. I dig it, it's one of my favorite videos. I understand it's principle, but i bought it from a good shop anyway.

I think dieter is awesome. I love his new alliamce cover and i need to get my hands on that issue. Maybe some day i will own that print. For sure, i will add that board to my collection.

Maybe part of it is guilt because i stole his spray move and i pretend i'm good at it.

The bottom line is i wish dieter the best. It's cool to see riders get involved and try and lead. I hope it works out for him.

I've been trying to find a copy of nosia vision since it came out. Is it illegal to copy it onto another disc for someone?

i never received my disk either and have nearly given up on it. Just glad I have a digital version of it somewhere. Kinda upset about that but what can you do really. I wish him the best also but just hope his business practices change a bit for the better or things may not be to successful for him. interested to see his products and shapes though.

RyanJames, i think it is.

I'm pretty sure buywake has the dvd. That's where i first saw it.

electricsnow, its also illegal to obtain money from people with a promise of sending goods in exchange for the cash, i find it funny you feel the need to comment on ryan but not acknowledge that diet jacked peoples cash for a product that he never sent

At Suwanee Pro after finals he was walking around giving out free copies. Which my friend and I gladly accepted.

I did pay for a video and got a digital version from dieter. I get that people are pissed. I'm ok with my position. I don't need to meddle in petty shizzle. He asked a question, i gave an answer. I personally still wouldn't burn a free copy for someone.

Does anyone know why he left Ronix/got cut from the team? Also does anyone think it's frustrating that Ronix has a whole line of wakeskates and only 1 team rider?

Jake S, I think it's a little frustrating that Ronix has the means to design and build great boards with great riders but really only give a shít about Reed and the Boomstick.

Jake S, Ronix probably pre-ordered Noisia Vision too...
honestly. i wonder what sales on the boomstick are like? Ronix could be paying some riders and making their brand look really good with a good team.

Hey guys, I was staying with Diets when he finally got a batch of disks, If you pre-ordered give him an shout/email/facebook whatever, he'll sort you out, I think there may have been a problem with the orders, but I remember something like 500 copies coming in, with orders from all over the world, which he is hand mailing himself so it could take time to get them all out, this project is really all driven by him, and he's not making cash out of the dvd sales at all.

Dieter is one of the nicest dudes you'll ever meet and he nows how to ride a wakeskate properly.

DaleFish, I agree. Diets is an extremely nice guy and has responded to every one of my facebook messages regarding NV and has agreed to send out a disc to me. I understand his time commitment to this project probably became over-whelming at the time and now that things have calmed down a little he is better able to serve individuals like myself. True, there are a couple things that he maybe should have done a little differently but it's that way with almost all new companies/startups. So, as you stated, just shoot him a facebook message or something and I'm sure he will be more than happy to help you out.
