gregory is a good rider....but iv talked to some of his past wakeboard sponcers, and they say hes just flat out crazy! i bet if he does alot more of the pro tour and some other comps...then companies will pick him up. but he's kinda with 484. haha have you talked to any of the other people greg rides with?

im just checkin out a board they sent me, im not riding for any board companys right now. but kampus sent me out a 39" swing, and its totaly sick. if you have the chance to ride one, do it. i thought it would suck but its sweet.

Greg, you're a lucky dog..! But I guess you deserve it...
Anyway, how is the grip on that board?

greg van wagnen · Posted: Nov 06, 2003 6:28 pm Post subject:

the grips just normal griptape. but one thing i have to say about it is that i was suprised at how well the concave worked. i thought it would be to flat for me but i was totaly wrong. anyone whos sayin to themselfs it looks to flat, go check it out and youll probably change your mind.

heres some video of the other day that ricky was talkin about when i went to ride with him in the morning.

greg van wagnen, what do you mean they sent you a board did you ask them or something because last time i checked companys didnt give out free boards to everyone!! lol

Greg, are you sure it's a Swing 39''? Cause in that video it doesn't look like a Swing... Rolling Eyes

Isn't it a 'K39' or a 'Slide'?

WaKeSk8Er1234, dont worrie about it

Paul, thats my older board. its a 484 41" concave, i rode the swing later in the day. i had to go get a razor blade and put on grip tape before i could ride it and the video dude was in a hurry so i just rode my 484 for the videoing and then when he left we griptaped the swing and rode more
