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

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 _________________ AKA Taco

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. _________________ Scuba Steve's Wakeskate Film Libray |

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. _________________ Hold on and ride that motherhonker out. What's the worst that can happen? |

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. 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. _________________ f*** you if you can't take a joke |

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. _________________ Hold on and ride that motherhonker out. What's the worst that can happen? |

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. |
