im actually looking at making a few at the moment and just try and prototype and look at a few different shapes etc.. id like to make 2 jigs one for a concave wakeskate and one of a flat deck. im come up with a range of graphics and yeah id like to try and make these skates good. im sort of looking at starting a company but its nothing definet at the moment. i just love wakeskating and want to muck around trying to make new designs and stuff. _________________ Ali BoUlala your my idol///// GRIFFINDOR !!!!!!! |
