What is a wakeskate?
A wakeskate is a board ridden without bindings — your feet grip a foam or grip-tape surface, similar to a skateboard. This makes it a unique challenge compared to wakeboarding, with a completely different trick vocabulary focused on board flips and footwork rather than strapped-in aerial moves.
FAQs – Wakeskates
How is a wakeskate different from a wakeboard?
The key difference is that a wakeskate has no bindings. Your feet are free, which makes it harder to stay on the board but opens up a whole new set of tricks inspired by skateboarding — kickflips, heelflips, body varials and more.
Is wakeskating harder than wakeboarding?
Generally yes. Without bindings, the learning curve is steeper and staying on the board takes more practice. Most wakeskaters have a wakeboarding or skateboarding background before they start.
What size wakeskate do I need?
Wakeskate sizing is based on height and weight, typically ranging from 39" to 44". Smaller sizes (39–41") suit lighter, smaller riders and technical riding; larger sizes (42–44") offer more stability.
Can I use a wakeskate at a cable park?
Yes — wakeskating is popular at cable parks. The lack of bindings makes some tricks easier to execute and fall safely from. Look for a model with a durable base that can handle rail riding.
Does Liquid Force make good wakeskates?
Yes. Liquid Force is one of the few major brands still actively developing wakeskates. Their TAO and FOCUS models are well regarded for durability, grip and performance at the cable park and behind a boat.
