Kampus Wakeskates still exists
After some years with lots of problems producing wakeskates and wakeskate shoes, Kampus has developed a new line for 2007. Here's a part of an article published on wakeskating.com
"After skipping 2005 and most of the 2006 production season with their wakeskate line, their new high-end board construction was revealed and it looked pretty impressive. Utilizing their experience with manufacturing snowboards, they developed a unique core lay up that’s comprised of vertically laminated wood with woven fiberglass that ends 1.5 inches from the board’s edge. These new design features add strength and durability to the high-end line in order to keep up with the demands of today’s riding.
The top sheet and base on the high-end models (the late season Leif release and the new for 07 Clint Tompkins pro model) consisted of PBT plastic for more durability, which is a change from previous Kampus wakeskate designs. Both models have the new core lay up, but the Leif pro model was a flat deck, while Clint’s pro model is the first concave release from Kampus."
