|
|
If you ride it or have rode the doyle tell me how it is. I have riden the impalla and love it, just i am wondering if the weight makes it ride different.
thanks _________________ l_o/------------------------<l |

My buddy has one that I get to frequent often. Its a really solid board for anything it somes across. Also it is super durable and it rides like my casette sorta. I would buy one. _________________

skatewake41, I ride the Dolye and the Impalla .... to be honnest I don't notice to much of a difference in the weight when im riding.... I don't think if you went out on the Doyle right after you rode your Impalla you would be able to tell much of a difference expect that the grip is different.... It's if you are hitting rails 24/7 where you will notice the Doyle holding up better to damage, the PBT is strong like Ox.... |

carive, it will be a good skate for you guys because it has a PBT base .... since you ride cable im guessing you hit rails a lot.... so your board will take rail damage much better than most wood decks... |

stompin9s, it rides like a wood deck..... I decided to try out the new Cataylst 2.0 last time I was out and really noticed how different my Doyle rode.... The cataylst felt really floatie on top of the water...
definetly sits deeper in the water than most comp decks..... |

ScottyB, I dunno but its probably one of the only sites I've found that had the 07's since I started shopping for a new wakeskate. Never ordered anything from them myself. |

so... "Thank you very much for your order. I placed your order this
morning and Gator Boards won't be making the Doyle 41 this year." "Gator won't be producing any composite skates this year (Doyle & Impala)."
of course. |
