im not a fan of wakeboarding behind a boat ..but a cable is actually fun to take a nice break from skating and hit the straps for a lap or two ...helps you figure out how to hit something that you bail on everytime with a skate ect....and yes if nick started strapping again , i think alot of ppl would pay attention _________________ https://vimeo.com/moontowerco |

Why all the hate? To each his own. I do both but i just love boardsports as a whole, whether im strapped in or not, or whether I'm on water, snow, concrete, or my effing counter with a tech deck It's all relative, and i LOVE it. And yall have to admit, some gnar stuff goes down in wakeboarding every once in awhile..such as: http://vimeo.com/10688654 <that kinda amplitude gets me so amped to ride regardless of what board I'm standing on...as long as its under me I'm one contempt dude  _________________ When it rains, it pours. |

It's crazy! It's like wakeskating, but easy and you can't do as many tricks!

wakeboarding is just as hard as skating in a different way. one takes finesse, dexterity, and creativity; and one takes gymnastic type skill and more intensity to progress. _________________ "I said take me to the sea, cause that is where I want to be.
