tis true. A wakeskate is a wakeskate--it's about the shred!

but since we're speaking of beginnings, this is the first picture I took of my "board collection." At the time, I thought this was a lot, but nobody was really collecting boards (wakeskates) either (to clarify, i had a lot more wakeboards at this point).

electricsnow, to be fair, yours isn't a collection....it is more like a museum display.

Collections are usually filled with more things (decks) that nobody cares about. Yours, electricsnow, is mostly the most meaningful, collectible boards out there.

Props.

I feel like inviting myself and a couple friends over, feeding you turkey and wine and playing with your 'collection'.....Seinfeld anyone?

(sigh) that's nice of you to say! It's true though as in I pretty much collect from the heart. time has expanded my list of desirable decks for various reasons...

And that seinfeld joke is hilarious!! I've made that joke about my decks before, as in some day I'd end up with a boyfriend that would do just that...dippin' my reed in the lake for a shred and tearing the plastic off of the 4-trac...et al.

And now I'll never EVER fall for that joke, because now I know it's real and could happen. Shocked

I just added that little emerald in the middle, so I figured I would get the family together for a little photo.
