hey guys, i hope im still welcome lol. Rolling Eyes

its getting too cold to ride here, but ii still want to, unfortunately my dad got the boat winterized today. Sad but i was checking out ebay real quick for some wakeskates, saw this one

http://cgi.ebay.com/2007-Hyperlite-Scape-Wakeskate-107-cm-w-EVA-Foam-NEW_W0QQitemZ260181982005QQihZ016QQcategoryZ23807QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem#ebayphotohosting

i like the design, and it looks like a good board to start out on, i dont want to jump straight into a board with concave because i just want to fool around, and i want foam so my friends can try and not have to worry about wearing shoes. the only real questions i have are is this board worth it? and are there companies out there with better flat boards?

thanks and have a good weekend.

Its a good board for people looking to start wakeskating, see if they enjoy the sport and start their progression.

A lot of people learn on this board, It will be perfect for you. I'd suggest leaving the fins on at first so you aren't all over the place until you get comfortable on the water. Have fun with it.

the scape is not that good of a board
I suggest a Kampus, they are about the best flat decks you can buy

or a liquidforce faction

-Supra-, Seconded. You will quickly get sick of the scape and find yourself wanting something better. Take a look at kampus and maybe some old cassettes on ebay. New makes flat decks as well. You can choose your rocker and dimensions and whatnot. I believe Sattelyte has a flat deck out as well.


Piece of trash retarded faggot.

Crazy Ray, dont buy a flatdeck with foam, i recomend that you just get a good concave deck with grip(new,oak,sattelyte,integrity,cassette,omen,2007/08 canadian made liquidforce impulses,etc.)

if not, then just put the foam grip/griptape on your shawkboard that comes with it Rolling Eyes
