How did you actually make the water? Is it Maya 4.5's default water shader, or did you make it yourself, or what? Oh, and you never answered my question about which sides the nose user added image

lol, my bad. The nose.. there is a difference. And it doesn't matter which way you are riding, unless going switch.. just like skating and snowbaording. The graphics point one way, and on some boards, one side will have more pop that the other. The water.. i made half of it. I got the arctic water shader, and changed it a bit. The bit difference is mental ray, as you can see the difference between the regular and mental ray renders.

Hey uh..do you think you could send me the shader you have/used? Cause I really like that water user added image

And thanx for cleaing the nose-tail thing for me user added image

On a skateboard, the nose is longer than the tail, so thats how you tell the difference there.

Looks cool though, i love the bindings!

Alright, i am re-doing the bindings... cuz.. well i hate them. They don't even look like wakeboard bindings. Here are the ones that i am going to try to model.
