|
|
well i had some free time this school year, and in construction class
i decided to build a wakeskate as a project, my teacher thought it was a great idea, and since the skool pays for the wood and every thing else to make the wakeskate, my teacher didnt have a problem with me making as many as i wanted, and i then got togther with a freid who has expereince with making wakeskates, and once i got a layout of a wakeskate i was then making 5 wakeskates a day, i didnt think at the time that i should sell some of them but after testing them i decided that they'd make a great board to ride if ur not into wasiting 180+ on company made wakeskates, any way i came up with the name " Academy wakeskates" at the last second and ill have pics of them up veryy soon, im also messing with making some bi level's, and ive already gottan started on afew, just say any one who reads this csn get an idea what they look like, there identicle to the flat track by cassette, but with a slightey wider tail and nose, and im selling them for 20$, pics of them will be up soon enough, and if u have any questions PM me, i can make a wakeskate to any ones exact lengths and specifications so ask me and im sure it can be done, if i forgot to post any thing else, or if any one has any futher questions ask please,

sorry to be a Jerk, but the name is important. It is awsome what you are doing but you might want to choose a different name.
http://www.academysnowboards.com/ I think that Academy Snowboards has an affiliation with Kampus. You might want to research a bit.
Other than that....Rock on!!!!!

artillary wakeskates would be sweet. instead of cameras like cassette, you could have millitary tanks, planes, guns and bombs and stuff.

mario c., artillary skates sounds great!
and i finally got sum pic! these r only 3 wakeskates ive made tho, two r flat tracks with an incline at each tail (that u cant see becuase i didnt take a pic of the bottum) and the others a dissasembled mini! bi level, it was next to Impossible for me to warp the tail, nose and body like a skate board so i fiugered, why not use a skate board deck? so i made afew cuts and know i have the worlds smallest bi level , these wakeskates still need to be coated and painted, and are Nottt the finished product soo if u have any questions , remeber, im still afew days away from them being completed, also if any one does wanna buy one, they come fully gripped and painted with any chose of color u would like
