Recently got some new shoes so thought I'd share them with you guys. Had been using cheap skate shoes but they get real heavy when wet and fall apart easy. Ive had problems with the tops of my feet getting sore from the footholds, I guess i should have used more padding under the turf, so Ive always tried to get something with a thick tounge. I saw someone on Xh20 had these so thought i'd give them a go. They are Teva wakeskate shoes. Real light, all the tongue and padding is closed cell foam so they don't absorb water, they drain easy and fit in the footholds well. I still wear neoprene 2mm dive socks inside them cos i like warm feet! Got them on sale from amazon.com for under $100nz incl shipping Time will tell how durable they are but so far so good.
I was using old skate shoes but got Yamaha riding boots, but having the same problem getting sore (bruised) tops of my feet from foot holds! They look good price sounds good to.
I wakeskate a bit and always used old skate shoes (totally agree they get heavy) those look sweet apart from the green heel bit :?
