Hello, since we are new to the industry, we would like to introduce our Brand and our product so everyone can get a feel what were about and what our boards are like.
We started pressing boards back in 2012 and we want to be the company people can turn to when they want a sleek and clean wakeskate, and produce boards that were proud of. Before we started pressing our boards we were getting wakeskates made for us and slapping our logo on them. We didn't like this and did not feel like the wakeskates were ours. Or something that would enrich the sport so we switched gears and decided to take on the full manufacturing process. With that came plenty of obstacles and took around 2 years of constant tweaking and experimentation and research to find the proper materials and processes that would satisfy us and create a wakeskate that would be worth buying. Everything from the graphic design to wakeskate design to wakeskate construction is handled by our team. One thing we believe in is the aesthetic of the wakeskates that is why we have kept our graphics simple and classic, we hope people will appreciate this.
Our finalized wakeskate is the Pro3, its available on our website for $349.99.
This board is the 3rd iteration of the American Wakeskate (hence the name). We use a combination of aspen and poplar in the core to get the right weight to strength ratio. Kick tails and concaves are solid. This board comes in 39” 40” and 41” with a 3 stage rocker. The Pro3 is slightly wider than previous boards at 16.75”.
Let us know what you think or if anyone has some cool ideas for wakeskates design or graphics we would be super down to hear from you.
