Thanks for the feedback!!
Well, i'm starting to produce some wakeskates here in Brazil, i've been testing many shapes, rockers, sizes and etc... i'm getting closer to the final product, so we decided to produce two sizes, 103,5 and 106 thats something like 40.75" and 41.75". We belive these sizes fits almost every kind of riders... Our inspiration (we are not copy here!) is something like Omen's look and style, and a L13 kind of concaves, the rocker we developed is a kind of a "staged blended" continious, cause actualy it has a 5" aprox. of flat-spot:

This is a preview of the Project Wakeskates:

In Brazil we pay more than U$ 500 dollar for a Liquid Force's Armada, thats ridiculous! Lots of tax!

So, my goal is to produce an accesible "and good" wakeskate to my country... this is the Project Wakeskates.

Thanks for the pool results...

those boards look sooo good. but it looks like that is a lot of rocker, is there much drag to it?

the board is 106cm(41.73") length/ 40cm(15.74") Mid width/ 5cm(1.96")continuos rocker with 5 inches of flat spot. It is a fast board

Boards look awesome man its VERY cool that you are spreading the sport and making boards accessible and affordable to Brazil.

Specs aside, looks like you've already get a very steady company image going. The graphics look dope and I really love your logo!
