i'll never understand all the dramatic bulljive that arises from stuff like this. i can understand that what OTT said probably should not have been said but let's not take that out of context. it's apparent that chris has been working his ass off to get this company going, purely for the love of it....not for the profit obviously. why hate on him for petty things like the website not being ridiculously flashy? the integrity vs. everything else argument is just stupid. i ride an integrity and i love my board. i'm a hell of a long way away from being pro, but i've ridden other boards and to ME nothing compares. people feel the same about oak, new, omen, sattelyte, and even homemade skates. it's all about riding and doing what you love, and chris exemplifying that by pushing for his company to get off of the ground. i've been involved with the flatland skimboarding industry for a long time and if there's one thing i've learned, it's that progression in the sport comes predominantly from the small and independent companies, because they're in it for the love and the vibes. you think these companies are going to make a killing off of their product? ....no. most of these guys are still working day jobs and making boards as a hobby. much of their earned revenue, minus expenses and overhead, goes directly back into the sport. sponsoring contests, putting a team together, picking up up-and-comers, putting out videos, etc....i'm sure chris, erich, robin new, the oak guys, and all of the other independent company guys will agree with that. it shouldn't matter how simple a website is or how YOU think a board rides, because to other people the perspective could be completely different. the only thing that should matter is the soul that goes into getting something like this off of the ground. i don't understand why that's so hard to comprehend?

sorry for ranting but i've been in a situation like this and it just bothers me that people were acting the way they were.

SleuCrew, You by chance have an idea when these will start shipping?

02LaunchSSV, Ya i was wondering that too!

-------

I ordered both the Arson and the Simplex within a day of each other at the beginning of the month, when the Arson pre-order became available. I'm sorta excited to see which one will come in first for some odd reason... Even though the Simplex came out slightly before the Arson, I waited until the Arson came out before I ordered both, idk why lol.

I purchased the Arson simply because when I got my Omen I was very happy with the build quality and materials used, not to mention the unique way it rode. You could tell some serious effort went into the the manufacturing process.

I bought the Simplex because this is the first time Integ has made a true "wood concave". Not to say that the TNT and Lemons aren't works of art, I just never cared for the feel of those boards. I much perfer the feel of wood boards, for some reason.

oooo, I can't wait 'till they get here! Twisted Evil

02LaunchSSV, As of right now everything is on schedule and your orders should all ship on the 4th week of the when you placed your order.

We've added 5 more decks to the pre order availability as well.

ALSO, there were a lot of people that ordered their decks without fins. If any of you want your decks built without fin holes feel free to shoot me an email at info@arson-wake and let me know and I'll gladly ship your deck without fin holes drilled.

There are two left available... Once those are gone that's it for the pre order deal.
