Ok, so I have a widget on my mac that allows me to convert lengths and I put in the Catalyst lengths to find out how many inches they were. I can't believe Brian Grubb rides a 44" skate. On top of that they offer the 45" model. I could never imagine riding such a huge skate. Thoughts?

You can also find the length of boards by Dividing the inches by .394 or Multiplying the millimeters by .394. _________________

agreed, they are like wakeboards, with the nose and tail cut down and no straps. If you ask me, they should call their boards freestyle wakeboards.  _________________ forever shreddin' |

Jesse, way over the head of most on this forum IMO....
Grubb makes that monster board look like it ain't so big though. _________________ The above are opinions of NotSoBueno, based on NotSoBueno's life experiences and are not reflective of the opinions of wakeskating.com, posters on wakeskating.com, or readers of threads on wakeskating.com. |

now now.....come on, be nice. I have had the opportunity to ride quite a few skates and even have a guy who makes whatever shapes I want. However, I am going to buy a Byerly Legacy 39 here in a few weeks when Glass and Powder gets them in. I am still going to have him shape me skates to my liking from wood, but I am really looking forward to a change-up, and think this new board will be pretty sweet! I am pretty sure that Grubb and Byerly don't just deal with whatever hyperlite throws at them. I would think they come up with what they like and shapers make it for them. But then again, maybe I am wrong....would someone like to enlighten me? _________________ www.nathanhudson.net
