Frye, we were going about 10 mph, seemed to work the best. and i dont remember on the 180, i think i landed on it, just couldn't pull it out. (i think it was my pic....but thats what i did on my 180s)

G-squadriderz, we tried a skate deck (pretty much same as a wakeskate), but it has no traction, and you can't really ollie, at all. (even with the kicktails). It also wears down the the bottom of the board. Good luck though man.

Frye We went about 7-10mph for doing tricks, but we were going around 20 when we were just carving and doing surface spins, it was hella fun.
