I have coem to notcie that these posts ahve been so out of hand recently , mainly bashing companies and bashing riders that ride for companies that aren't rider owned, Hmmm this makes me think , i belive that far to ofteen alot of the people on here are caught up in the politics about making the sport "core" and keep it real , i guess my only suggestion is why dont u go out and ride and try and make it core that way instead of sitting at your computers fighting over what the sport should be , your essentially all politians , telling people how and what should be done , real wakeskating is what your looking for and the only way to find it is by going out and riding using your own self expression on the board to show what wakeskating is truly about, if your riding a board that works for you then fine , and why do we need to start another site , okay so u would expsoes riders that ride for those RO companyies, u could easly do that on here. Get out there ride with them film them take photos of them , u dont need to start a site to get "core" riders more expusre, add it onto this site, but lets get serious you also talk about sell out wakeskaters most of the time, and how there not as good , look at brian grubb , im sure alot of u saw the toe jam section in fill in the blanks , hes does a backside 3 into the flats!!! find me a rider that rides for a ROC that can do that and then maybe i would say go for a your website.

i think even if we are bashing companies we should have a very good reason or something went wrong with something you tried to do with them

It the middle of winter and the majority of us cant go out and ride, so we take our agression out on the internet. But Thanks anyways Smile

When will posts like the one you just made stop? There have been quite a few of these posts pointing out flaws of the site recently. They don't do anything except make the problem worse and start more arguments.

Greg T,

you tell him and dont argue or bash any companies in the process. Laughing

I understand where he is coming from because a lot of us here have no reason to bash anyone because were not even close to the riding level of Grubb or Byerly or any of those riders that ride for those big companies. If anything im jealous that they can ride for a living and do cool stuff.

can we stop making topics that all complain about the forums, its really stupid, and in turn is bringing it down....if u have something to say, make it in one of the other 30 topics on how things are out of hand and rude and blah blah blah.

jono, i agree, but this thype of post does make more problems, so if you feel that way, just stop posting like i have, because when you get caught up in all the stuff that basically isn't wakeskating, like RO companies and which pro is better (what just about every topic turns into), then it just gets frustrating.

i got all caught up in RO companies and such, until i rode a big name company board which i liked more than my RO company board (i wont say which companies, cuz that will just cause problems) adn your right its all about the riding.

Very Happy

gregg, i deffnitly agree, these stupid kinda "stop fighitng " posts just create more controversy, and jono, dude, dont say that only corprate owned company riders can do sick shizzle, ya they rock, but that dosnt mean the ROC riders cant pull crazy stuff either, serioulsy look at some of them, clint tompkins, ryan lemons, arron reed, thoughs guys are crazy. And i garentee some1 else can do a bs 360... heh..
