What Ive been doing all summer

These are from LaborDay weekend.

Been wakeboarding about a year now (started at the end of last summer) and I got to say it is my new addiction. Nothing beats a day on the lake







Pop 180 to get to switch




180












Anyone else on here do some wakeboarding?

 

nice pics man your getting pretty good. I started when I was about 16 with a cheap board and then I got a Hyperlite Parks 138 board with Parks bindings, but then I kinda gave up for a few summers. I got back into this summer right where I left off. I'm still trying to learn how to ride switch. It looks like that boat doesn't have a tower but your still getting some decent air. nice 311 sticker

 

i tried it for the first time this summer. i got up on my 5th or 6th try, it was a lot of fun but my feet kept cramping up like crazy. ill definitely go again if i get a chance.

 

I have a couple friends with towers but both of their boats are down right now!!! yea, got to stick to the towerless strecthy rope for now. hopefully next summer will bring better toys lol

thanks for the compliments tho!

 

Gosh i love wakeboarding so much, even when i completly wipeout after a fall and it kills i still want to go again its so fun

 

Yes, I have done a lot of wakeboarding, but not doing so much now - too much risk of injury. I have 3 or 4 friends who have wake boats (X30, 210 and a V-Ride) so I am lucky to be able to go quite often. However recently I realized I'm just as happy being on the lake as wakeboarding.

 

yea the whole high risk of injury thing is kinda bad but hey ya only live once. no pain no game. kinda puts a whole new twist to the saying "go break a leg" tho doesn't it

 

what lake where you at?

 

Man I haven't wakeboarded in about 9 months now. Just haven't had the time to take the boat out. What a difference though once you ride behind a boat with a tower. I can do the 180 thing but other than that and jumping the wake I've got no other tricks.

Lol I found a video clip on my cell phone that someone took where I do I nice face plant trying to do a flip for the first time

 

Lake Sinclair, Milledgeville GA

haha yea i almost got a concussion trying to do a surface 180 a while bak... edge of the board caught half way around and BAM didn't have time to do anything. saw some stars for a few minutes and had a killer headache. took a breather and i was bak out again haha

 

BY THE WAY, if you have been involved in a hobby or sport this summer (non tacoma related) then post up pics and tell us about it in this thread!!

 

yea i wakeboard i just started back up i like to wakeskate too but wake surfing is what im the best at

 

Ima try out wakeskating and wakesurfing next season, shit looks fun as hell
