“Well I'm not really an expert. I'm just starting but I tried a few brands of boards and I can tell you that your board made a lot easier to have fun on the waves. I have a lot of control, it is really comfortable, makes it a lot easy to take the waves. I feel more control and its very fast; an awesome board that I can't wait to take out to the waves again. Thank you for making this great products, congrats.”

“Las mejores tablas que he probado; rápidas, confortables, divertidas, con una maniobrabilidad impresionante; se cortan las olas como en ninguna otra; excelente diseño y materiales; definitivamente todo mundo debe de tener una. Desde la primera vez que la saque a la playa, la gente no despegaba las miradas de ella. Definitivamente las mejores.”

“Got the board this week and tried it out today. Am so impressed. All the other boarders were so jealous since not only was I going faster but I could spin much better too. Here's a picture of me after 3 hours in the water in the cold waters of Donegal in Ireland ...I know I look wrecked but it was such a ride out there as well as dodging the kite surfers as you can see behind me. Thank you very much..I hope you will be able to sell me more boards for Xmas.”

“Just sold my surfboard due to age (I'm 50 and the knees don't work like they used to!) and picked up a black and teal pro board at Longboard House in Indialantic, Fl....Amazing!!! surfing without standing...spent all day out on the beach enjoying the surf..thanks for a great, innovation!.”

“I rode it yesterday at El Faro Beach on Rincon Puerto Rico, Good place for surfing. The WAVESKATER on a 6' wave is good, but on a 10' foot and over its much better (awesome), it's like a jet on water, it's very fast. In one moment when I took a wave around 12', I looked to my side and their was a BIG MOUTH looking to eat me, but this time it wouldn't, I rode on my new FERRARI, bye, bye I will see you later. It's much easier to make tricks, and my teammates and others loved it. The people questioned me about it: THIS IS A NEW INNOVATION IN BODYBOARDING, THE WAVE SKATER, PURE POWER AND SPEED.”

OBCRUZ comments in Spanish
“Lo pude probar en la playa del Faro en Rincón días atrás, uno de los mejores lugares para el surfing en Puerto Rico. En olas de 6´ corre bien, pero en olas de 10´ o más es increíble, se siente como si vijaras en un jet sobre el agua, es muy rápido y manejable. En un momento cuando tomé una ola de alrededor de 12´ y miro a mi lado veo la gran boca.”

“You should've seen the waves I rode today on my Wave
Skater. Just huge! I discovered, once again, that the
bigger the wave, the better the Wave Skater works! Plus,
the Wave Skater turn is really a subtle turn. On a big
wave, the subtle turn is the best. A surfer out in the
water commented to a friend who was out there that I
appeared to really be having a good time. That guy was
right! I think they were the biggest waves I've ever
ridden, and I did so with no fear... just casual cool.
The Wave Skater is supreme! Wave Skater: The Thinking Man's Bodyboard
Thanks again Bruce!”

“I finally managed to get out on the Wave Skater. Its a very nice board. I noticed right off it likes larger waves. It really performed in overhead surf (thats overhead for a surfer since practically anything is overhead on a body board.) I showed if off at ...surf shop and the guy working there was impressed so I'll send them your web address.”
Thanks,
—P. Lundquist, California
“Bruce. 2 words. Sick :) Outstanding board and I am very happy with it. I had it out all last weekend in that Ernesto stuff. Handled great. Even at my 195 lbs. it floated me well and handled sharp. Just wanted to take a minute and let you know how impressed I was with you, your service and your company. I will certainly recommend the
Waveskater to everyone I run across. Be safe and travel well.”

“Just got back from the beach, had a good time with the Wave Skaters! It's a great choice for people who want things that will last. It looks like it is much more durable than the last boards we had that delaminated after 1 month. The coiled leash (better than rope type leash on the last boards), handholds, and better turning ability all make for more fun in the water.”
Thanks!
—Craig Schmith
“Well I finally got to the beach to use my board! I'm no more than an enthusiastic amateur, but I was getting pretty good at cutting back on waves, and I even caught a few curls. Great fun. The board isn't heavy, but it's remarkably sturdy. I certainly couldn't ask for more from a board, and I'm looking forward to many summer vacations of fun from it.
I'll also probably have to get some for the kids nowI made them jealous!”
—Ellen P. Kiley
“I recently purchased a Wave Skater at your Carlbad shop.
What a fantastic board! I have had more fun with it. It's
incredibly light yet strong at the same time. Its length and
contours make it very comfortable to ride and add to the
maneuverability. It's a Sensational Product. Congratulations!”
—Pat Boyle, La Jolla
“I love the Wave Skater! I would like to buy another from you
and have it shipped to my cousin for a gift. Also, I was out the
other day and hit a nice shore break. I had the waves to myself
and got a bunch of great tube rides! I need to get some pictures
for you.”
Thanks again
Aloha,

“I arrived on the beautiful Jersey Shore just in time to catch TS Beryl's
swell on Thursday. Grabbed the new Wave Skater and hit the beach early each
morning and had an absolutely great time. The board catches everything,
turns as well as any bodyboard I've ever ridden and even has enough speed to
get me barreled in those pounding beach break waves. Very, very cool design.
And at the end of each session, I'd grab the biggest wave I saw, race the
curl, then bank the board shoreward and ride all the way to the beach.
Anyway, great job on the board. And great customer care, too.
I appreciate it.”
—Mike Young, Carrollton, TX
“A friend of mine, Bruce Blumenfeld,
came to me with his bodyboarding design. I liked his basic strategy;
improve the tracking of the board so that you don't have to bank
it so much to 'hold an edge', and to make it a lot easier to hold
onto when the going gets rough.
We worked together on his preexisting patent pending twin tapered
pontoon design and on getting the manufacturing process of this
new kind of board right. He calls it a "Wave Skater,"
I like the results. Like how it feels under me. It's easy to turn
and handle, fast enough and stable in soup, easy for a novice
to steer. The one I own is blue and I thoroughly enjoy it. It's
sort of like surfing a fast blue cloud. And these boards are something
I'd be happy to give as gifts to members of my family and friends.”
—Tom Morey, Bodyboarding Legend
"I am an engineer working with polymers and controlling
their nanostructure and this is why I truly appreciate what you
have done with your polymer product and
the innovation you have brought. I know it takes lots of prototyping
and more importantly working out the process development so you
can make these one after another the same every time. All the
issues of curing, curative additives, molds, TTT processing etc.
This is why, when I saw your web site, I could see from the pictures
there was something there from a materials and design standpoint.
Now I can say it works great!
Great innovation in Wave Skater!!! I used the Wave Skater today.
Surf was heavy about 10 to 14 foot swells and very fast. Wave
Skater provided great planarization in paddling out. At all spots
here on the West Coast, all breaks are in deep water so paddling
out like Hawaii is a major chore. But the Wave Skater allowed
me to paddle just like I was on a surfboard! I caught ten waves
of which about eight were perfect in the curl.
Again, due to the planarizing and incredible control with almost
my whole body out of the water, even on fast breaking I was able
to get very nice rides. In fact, on five waves I was able to ride
to the three break, as these are the rolling waves to shore type.
I do not like to do this all the time, as then paddling out is
an issue, but I wanted to test the Wave Skater's control going
up and down the face and back again like a surfer. Many of the
surfers and a couple of other body boarders asked me what it was.
Thanks! It was a great day for me. I would actually would like
to purchase 3 more boards, as we have a summer place out on .....
Thanks,
I would be honored to be associated with you and your product!"
—John Jendricks, California
"I like how the board ridesvery responsive, but solid.
I feel very sure of myself on it, even when the waves are rough,
with lots of wind and current."
—Galatea Maman (European sports writer and bodyboard enthusiast.)
