2010 Ronix Zariel Wakeskate

Gator's 80D 41" Skate - Derived From Girl Skaters


Derived from our woman team riders Savannah Barber, and Megan McNeil. The 80-D 41" is the lightest wooden concave wakeskate in the line, weighing in at 7 pounds. This boards lightweight 17 ply design has an easier learning curve than heavier boards while the design of the 80-D’s concave top deck and 3 stage rocker is aggressive enough to bust a multitude of new tricks. This Skate also has sharper cupped rails that make it more forgiving on edge. The graphic has a unique glow in the dark feature as well. If you are an advocate skateboarder and you want to start wakeskating this is the board you want to buy.

"What is wakeskating?"

Author: Alex Jones, taken from wakeskating.com.

What is Wakeskating? This is a question most of us wakeskaters have been asked probably ten or more times, and we usually answer with a smile on our faces. The way I've explained it in the past has been something like "a wakeskate is a cross-pollination of a wakeboard and a skateboard". Lately I've been asking myself the same question, "what is wakeskating?", and I've been searching for a true answer. The answer I'm searching for is not the same answer that I give to the curious onlookers; the answer I am searching for has a deeper meaning. And I think I've finally come close to what wakeskating is, to me at least.
