Im not one to hate on peoples riding abilities at all I mean if you're in it for fun more power to you. But Im talking about people who buy these crazy expensive wakeboard boats and don't even wakeboard/wake skate. I mean there is someone on my lake with a 2011 MasterCraft X star and I have never seen them do any tow sport.
My brother has a friend who HAD a brand new Super Air Nautique, they didnt know how to use the ballast and only kneeboarded, and its not like they even used the wake. But they had this boat until one day they decided to take the winch strap thing on the front of their trailer off before puting their boat in the watter. So they backed their boat into the ramp and it fell to the asphalt, cracked the hull and screwd up the prop and everything Bang Head I guess im just jealous of their nice boats haha

I'm not sure how old you are, but I suspect you're young. Some day, this won't even matter to you. Laughing Either you'll get your own boat like this, or you'll realize you don't necessarily need a boat like that to have fun on a wakeskate.

Seriously, I really don't think the "wakeboard boat" industry could survive off of wakeboarders alone. Even though there are nice wakeboarding boats for people who really want to use that stuff, people with money will want nice boats to recreate with also. Maybe the space inside of those boats are a draw also...I really don't know because I'll never own a boat like that (nor do I have any desire to). Plus, the guy who's selling that boat has to eat. Shocked

Find the people who have the small boats, like tinnys, "lemonscrafts", whalers or shiznackle speedboats (I fall into the latter category) etc. Those are the people you want to become friends with. Wink

11RANDOMNESS, To each their own.

Don't worry about what others are doing just enjoy yourself out there.

Not everyone has the privilege to live on a lake.

11RANDOMNESS, Caring about boats is for strappers. And caring about strapping is just fvcking retarded.

Side note: rode for the first time in a long time and my wakeskate stoke is at eleventy billion percent.

the point is, people buy things that they like and sometimes use that thing for an unintended purpose, and still have fun!!. for example, i want to buy a sport nautique, but i sure as hell won't be skiing behind it. get it?

11RANDOMNESS, instead of hating on them because you never see them doing a tow sport, why not make the initiative and try to get them into one? Offer some gas money for a pull one day and when they see the wakeskate start talking to them about it. let them try it out. if they like it you just helped a wakeskate company sell a board or two along with a tow rope.

If they dont then at least you got a pull behind a boat and you tried. maybe they liked you enough to offer you some more pulls in which case you still win.

Man, life was so much simpler when all I had to worry about was whether or not other people deserved the things they had.

I'm a poser. I have a hyperlite board, liquid force vest, globe shoes and I wear DC shoes out of the house. I live on a lake and don't have a boat. I'm a poser.
