Do we still have time to trade it out for a Nahunta stop?

Confused

doesn't look like a wakeskate tour stop setup to me, that rail looks like they forgot to build a rail, found a piece of metal somewhere and just put it in

to me the rail looks awesome! its looks like it has at least a 5 foot drop off the end. plus it even looks like a small gap to the rail from the upper pond so it seems big and burley. I feel like this rail is gonna display some amazing talent simply b/c it looks like high consequences.

They could have at least closed the gap a little bit, one slip and we are seeing a wakeskater with a broken leg on that support bar.

I can see they went for "simple" but still it looks odd compared to the other stops. But with a simple rail and a nice gap I'm sure these guys will throw down like they normally do.

I was thinking the same thing...

Here is another perspective that I saw on Instagram from Cody Johnson.

I think it's good that its not like any other stop. I dont want to see the same set up, different background. I think the flat bar is a great idea. Should be a fun weekend.

Which stops have been the same?

Nicks - two drops, one huge, no rail

Ben - Land gap, hubba

Reed - drop with square rails, up ramp

This bums me out a little. Neutral It's not that it will not be serviceable, its that it doesn't look incredible........like all of the other stops.

Oh well, I'm sure it will still be a great time. I will be the one with the 4 little kids in tow.

Man, you jumped right in there to say something huh? Ha. I think you took that all the wrong way there. I was just trying to say this spot looks great. Someone had said it doesnt look like a WS tour stop. P.S. Nicks had a hubba this year. I love how all the stops have come out. This one should be no differnt.

The flat bar section will be cool to see what goes down.

Is it just me or does the top water box just not look sturdy... i feel like i could just blow a side wall at any moment! I am kinda of baffled by this. I saw that first pic posted on instagram, and really thought it was a joke about the tejas stop... i didnt think that was the actual set up ha. I have no doubt that the riders wont tear that living shizzle outa that stop but i think its kinda janky looking compared to the other stops on the tour. That metal bar looks like it might fall over, u can even see the support bar on the pool side. Its not even sunk into the ground or anything. Really wouldnt want to see anyone get injured, or impaled. Neutral
