middo0908, should make a good starter board but once you get a little better you might like a concave board better

middo0908, jessup and MOB are types of grip tape that work well in water or on a skateboard

middo0908, your board has a foam concave, what i am talking about is actual wood concave in the board not foam

and "faceplant" is your rank

i think someone said the more you wakeskate the faster it changes to "pop-shuvit"
