che blanc, I dont worship Integrity, I just support what they do, because our industry doesnt have enough company's like this, and when I can find one with a kick ass product(like Integrity) then Im going to make sure everyone knows how great they are. Im not only dissing LF Im dissing the company's that have lost sight of the rider and got the money in mind now. The ones that know if it has a marketable name on it, its gonna sell, so lets smack a larger price on it.

volcom_wakeboarder, what do you mean by rider do you not consider a team rider a rider? and since team riders have a say in board design then where has the company lost site in the rider. so once again i have no idea where you are coming from and just curious how many credible riders helped smaltz shape the board integrity has?

just because your name isn't in a magazine doesn't mean your not credible...
and just because your name or riding is in a mag... also doesn't mean you know how to shape a board... or even under stand the first thing about hydro dynamics...

integrity is a good board because it did what hyperlite didnt with a non-wood wakeskate, and its a small honest non-corporate bullcrap company unlike some (every) other company(ies). ive never ridden one, but from the buzz, the info, the looks, the hardflip... im not sure you could say its probably not an incredible board. i bought an lf concave 41 which delammed third time riding. i am currently riding it with one ply missing. lf is not is not such a credible company here, nor have they put out a good product.

in addition i do have something to say (be it skeptically) on lf's behalf. i heard from a rep, that cassette designed the boards that lf put out. but lf was building them and technically owned the design (although cassette designed it). i dont know if this is true (maybe just an lf rep talking for his possibly corporate puppateer company), but if it is true you couldnt say lf copyed cassette.

it is a ridiculous peeling piece of plywood either way. (its like grade C wood too, knots and all sorts of blemishes.)

Joey White, when I say rider I mean the person who is going to buy the skate expecting something good, and getting crap, or not what they expected from the price, those skates all look horrible to me, I wouldn't spend a penny on any of them, ask anybody on here Integrity has the best shizzle out and we all know it.

Schmaltz, keep doing what your doing man, you build the best skates, I cant wait until I have saved up the money to buy one, I really look forward to it, but since I dont have a job I've been saving all the change I can find, I currently have $1.40 in a shoebox in my room labled money for my integrity, and Im not jokin.

Schmaltz, dont take this in a way of me being negative towards you or integrity. i totally support what your doin, i just had to try to make a point to some wakeboarder Confused

che blanc, It's all good...
i don't even pick up any negatives here...
Just people expressing their opinions ...
nothing wrong with that...

i love that people love the integrity skates so much....i too think they look aweosme and will definitely get one as my next skate....HOWEVER...saying that they are "the best skates" if you havent ridden one, is not the right thing to be doing either. Theres a lotta people here doing that.

scott a, Im workin on that, I think my problem is that I load up the getaway car with liquer then I go to the register, which I end up just takin the pennies outta the tip cup.

My Integrity arrives today and I'm sitting here by the door waiting for it to get here. As soon as I ride it I'll get some pics up and info in about a week...Unless the double hurricanes KILL ME!! Shocked

I ride an 03 4-trac right now and I love it, I started on a 43" flat deck LF, tried an 03 3d Cassette 41" and hated it (too light), but I love the 4-trac. Hype sucks. Hopefully the Integrity will live up to the unprecedented hype that it has gotten on this site. Crazy Eyes
