The revolution is on! BuyWake.com friend Thomas Horrell
was one of the first pro wakeboarders to cross over to wakeskating
and never turn back. TH designed and developed the first wakeskate
brand (Cassette) and a new industry was formed.
Wakeskates come in various shapes, sizes and top surfaces. They are
intended to be ridden like a skateboard on the water. No bindings
here. Skates shoes are a must. There are no set standards for riding
as there are in wakeboarding. Try riding at different speeds and
rope lengths. |

DECKS |
| |
Multiple Fins – Multi-fins placed at
nose or tail, act like trucks on a skateboard. This allows the rider
to lock in on nose slides, tail slides, and blunt slides onto docks
and sliders.
Concave - Just like your favorite skateboard, concave
allows for better board control and more leverage for initiating
flip and varial tricks. Concave also allows for better foot control
and more pop on your ollies.
Flat – 9 ply wood decks offer a true skate feel.
A near flat-spot creates a slow, centered and neutral handling
point on the board for initiating maneuvers like shuvits. Transition
from center stage to kick stage creates quick snap for ollie
power.
