Ok well u guys may or may not remember, but a while back i busted up my new bi level like a week into owning it. Well i emailed the new guys and talked to barrett, i hated emailing bad shiz like that, i always feel like scum, i was like hey my board are busted (my pelican had that bottom layer of ply ripping up cause of an issue that they had with a wrong delivery of their ply wood). I didnt know what to do, and was asking how do i fix my pelican and what should i do with my dub.
Well NEW (and special thanks goes out to Barrett, dude u did sooo much for me aye, when i come to america i have to do somethin back for u) were like no problem, we will send u out a new bi level and a new pelican.
| Barrett wrote: | | Your new bi level and pelican are on it way! the bi level has 3 times more glass on it so it better not break the bi will be 1.5 lbs heavier. the pelican your getting is made using our new way of making boards. we havent broken on yet but it doesnt have any glass on it. so it can easily be made stronger. your going to be the 5th wakeskater in the world to ride it and the 2nd to own one |
As soon as i got that email the stoke factor just jumped up, could feel my heart going crazy. Well i go to the post office today and look what is staring at me. Trust me what Barrett said was a complete understatement of their boards. They havent broken the new pelicans yet. Dude i dont think a bomb would break these boards, they are sooo tough its not funny. Plus they sent me a whole heap stickers and stuff, ill def be rockin Newwakeskates.com wherever i go.
If anyone is thinking twice about a new, just get one, im gonna go ride them at cable in about an hour, but i already know how absolutely amazing they are gonna be. I will get mcthrust to post up his 43' mogley when it arrives (which i think will be very soon, just a matter of when USPS gets it to his door).
Dubstix - seriously how sick does that look
Pelican and Dubstix
How beautiful is that, thats skill there
The old pelican (missing the bottom layer of ply)
Stickstickstickers, gonna be putting these bad boys everywhere
My collection (minus the one i snapped on my wall. Gonna get another custom new when i go to america, and an 08 integ and maybe an arson if i can afford it)
PS if u guys want any other shots, just ask and ill post em up[/b]

The Kid, The pelican is my favourite of the 2, prolly cause im just used to riding a concave . It has some completely insane pop, just gotta get used to goin from a 41' back down to a 39 . Feels good but, feet are sitting exactly where they should, feels just right. it rides a bit just a tad deeper than the last version, but i think it is better, just helps stickin the tricks

in the end, you will love the size change. thats two less inches you have to shuv/spin/flip. I went from a 42 to a 38 and it was the best board change I've ever made. It just felt right.
The smallest board that a person is able to ride due to their size is the board they should be riding 
Wow, look at my rant, lol. |

I just rekon they feel more like a skate deck when they are that size, but that could just be me

the new way we press the boards make them stronger. its the same reason why skateboards have concove plus it feels better on your feet. im stoked you got your boards and that is my favorite graphic to date.
