This just in. Mark just shipped the Lake Wakes prize board. My first impression was the box. Holy cow, that's a box. It's big and well it's sturdy and really protects the board. The box was hard to open. It was taped and glued. There's more glue and cardboard in side.

Maybe I'm making a big deal out of the box but I've seen other boxes that haven't held up well.

The board looks great and is flawless. It looks to be a little more than an inch thick through most of the board. Plus the board is made in the U.S.A. We all need some of that now don't we? So, come on out to the National Wakesurf championship and maybe you'll walk away with this outstanding prize!
