We went out to do some snowskating but then we tried with the wakeskate and it was really fun... that skate was homemade and not indestructable but sure was fun... and we are desperate beacause its like 3 months more before we can go out ride. Very Happy

Couldn’t open that video for some reason?

Anyways, it seems that I’ve been hitting more rails on my wakeskate than on my snowboard this winter. It’s great not having to worry about steal edges. Wakeskates are way more stable on rails than snowskates (obviously), but they are impossible to steer into the rail with……

It’s the same as a snowboard in that the longer you let the deck cool down before riding, the faster it will go on the snow. I’ve been pleasantly surprised at how well a wood deck has handled the snow. We’ve got some sicker stuff, but below was taken from two days ago in our buddy’s back yard rail park.

Yes it is lame, but it keeps us out of trouble.

I managed to open the original vid using a different browser. Try changing borwsers..... download FireFox.

Once we figure out a way to drop into rails easier, we'll start doing much more technical tricks. For now, we're just messin'
