D.C. when you going to start making a good low end, kite skate???? Know one else does. Make an official D.C. skate with the Scoop Troop logo pimped on the bottom. Dats right.....How pimping would that be!!!!!!!!!!!
D.C. I would buy one no doubt!!!!
Peace,Jibbs

Yea, Dereck!
I thought the same thing. Give us some concept to go. I must say wakeskating is the most undiscovered thing here, but I doubt to get some production not designed for kiting. Should a kiteskate be much different from what they have in wakeboarding?

i rekon it would work sick with a bi-deck skate. so then u could have the small rocker on the bottom and the big kicks on the top layer.

the best kite skate i ever rode was the one that mauricio used in Autofocus. it was a jimmy lewis custom skate. i could ask him if he still has it maybe we could steal some dimensions.

I can give the dimis from my LF Antham which would be a great skate if it had less rocker/better low end. Fuk the foam top.......grip tap it.
Stoner whatz up with your skate??? I think you mentioned it was from A.F., anyway whats your take on a good skate? Dre wuz up I know you got some input. Jibbs

I like that :(

My wake crew goes through a wakeskate a season. So with kiting being pretty tough on gear it would have to be a little more durable. However, the old hyperlite one was light as hell for a wakeskate even though it lacked durability.

That is one thing we dont want is a light skate!!!!! A good oak ply, your magic touch on shaping with light rocker, Scoop Troop scull logo, & slap some grip tape on it and then we have the Trooper!!!!!! Keep it simple and cheap.......fuk composites and all that tech shit out!!!!!
