Andrew MassIVE, hahaha, me and some buds watched a vid in rewind slow mo before trying to call out the tricks, so funny

bob., hahahaha. i bet that could get really hard. you could make a fun drinking game out of that...

i honestly don't understand why people like saying that fakie or nollie exists on a wakeskate. 1. its a pointless debate. 2. it does nothing for the sport imo. 3. wakeskating is serious business.

Nollies/Fakies are possible off a box with nugs, as everyone has stated.

skimboarder, you saw dustin dollin on a skateboard or a wakeskat?

I have a Gate, I don't really ever ride it anymore. I did try to nollie it a few times, but the motion is nothing like a skateboard, instead of the nose coming off first, the whole board just comes out of the water.....pointless really.

And since fakie really just means "switch nollie" and you can't nollie without nubs, you can't do anything fakie without nubs.

But thats just my opinion.

switch nollie doesn't exist. It's really just fakie.

havn't read everything

but i most definitely think nollies in the flats is possible
i'm actaully almost positive u can
not with boards that are currently made, to do it u would need a different designed tail
the tail would hav to be more curved like a skateboard tail but then hav the tail keep goin so the kick is even bigger. It would hav to be like a snowskate almost so when u push on the tail it doesn't submerge
u may agree or disagree but that's my opinion and i think it's quite possible

RedShred14, the term fakie was around way before switch nollie... Even before Ollies
