Satte-who-vius ????

If I ever get a pro model, I would call it the ….Satteivarius, a la the “Stradivarius” violins, prized by world-class musicians.

Alas … the fact is that I suck at wakeskating, so I will never get to realize my dream…..boo!! However, I can live vicariously through Jeff who now has his own Pro-Model….see below.

Other than surf expo sightings, I am certain that this is the first published photo of it…..viva LIFE!!!!

We started using PBT bases for 2007, product testing has proven that the quality and feel of this base is superior to plain wood; however, I am sure that there are others who would argue to the contrary. We went through 3 shapes with Jeff’s help, and we are stoaked on the shape and design.

IS THIS A SHAMELESS ADVERTISEMENT???!!! Not really….this is more of a tilt of a hat to our friends at wakeskating.com. I think that everyone values your opinion(s), so that’s why we posted the photo here first.

In general, thanks to all the ws.com’ers for all your support over the years, and thanks to all the other ROC companies for being cool to us and keeping us on our toes.

I will ask Garry to send some....this is all he sent me. It's a wood concave with a PBT base. Below is a shot from when Jeff was on one of the protos at Hippo. I forget which version this was, but the concave is similar to that....

HAHAHA....that's right, sorry I forgot! Brandon had a lot of input in shape and design.

If I remember correctly, wasn't there some mention of Ponies and Rainbows for the graphics and a one-stage rocker? hahaha jk hommie! Those were my suggestions.

the o7's are soooo good.
40", 41, and 42"
engens is 42".
the heartbreaker will be re-released with the new wood and shape.
the boards are wider, and the concave and pr-kicks are spot on.
good job guys!
