Met a girl a couple of weeks ago. We've been hitting it off very nicely. Took her wakeboarding for the first time a few days ago. She loved it and was hooked. Got up on the first try and was doing surface 180's by the end of the day. I think I may have finally found a keeper!

That's great! Now don't screw it up by making wakeboarding too serious. Let her have fun, keep smiling and progress at her own rate. Oh, and keep buying her gifts, too. That always helps! |

Not like she's got anything to be ashamed of.

Wasn't saying she did....was just sayin, some chicks are weird about that is all. _________________ (insert funny chit here) |

There are only a handfull of girls out here in GA that ride, so its nice to hear of new addicts catching on....LOL
We will be out on the lake tonight boardin and surfin for a while!
My hubby and I tried it for the first time about 3 years ago and we have been hooked ever since, to the point of riding in wetsuits in Feb.
Congrats on finding someone that will have fun with you on lake instead of just being a boat ornament. I know too many girls like that!!! _________________ Surfing in Georiga?? Who woulda thought??!?!? |

HHI Dave, maybe it's me, but that board looks kinda small for her. What size is it? _________________ [quote="Swass"] 8824, dude - I suck. You were right.[/quote]. |

'07 Liquid Force Diva 135. She's about 118 lbs. LF rates this board for riders 100-150 lbs. Should be just right. _________________ Hilton Head Wake Sports.com

HHI Dave, my wife and I both ride a LF Witness 136, and we aren't as small as she is. Good looking board and nice legs too We're thinking about getting my wife her own set up and we may go with the Diva. _________________ If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular? |

Took her first set on the new setup today, her second time ever wakeboarding. She was riding across the wake both directions and doing surface 180's by the second set. I have the video to prove it.
This girl is hooked. It sure is nice to have an SO who shares your interests!

HHI Dave, that's cool man! That's one thing I love about my wife is she gets into a lot of the things that interest me and gives them a try. Wakeboarding is one thing we both got hooked on and I love that fact that we do it together. She is also a great boat person and has become invaluable to me. I almost am lost when she isn't with me. I'm very happy for ya. Tell your woman she needs a bit more sun, though. You need to post the video so we can all see how well she is doing. _________________ If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular? |

Sweet. She's pretty dam good for only 2 times out. I was impressed by the non-faceplant during surface 180's and the few times she got sideways. Tell her to keep it up-she's off to a great start! _________________

Funny, I have to keep reminding my lady that it IS all about fun and NOT just about progressing. Last season she got so focused on becoming better at TS edge that she became quite frustrated if she thought she "lost" some progress. (I actually thought she was going to give up completely on the sport).
This year she's having much more fun and getting close to a W2W. Then again she hasn't had to struggle at all, so hopefully even if she struggles a bit this season she still remembers to have fun!
Now if I could just get her in the water earlier in the season _________________ Today is a chance to become a greater person than the person we were the day before. |

Wow! Nice story. I still try to get my wife to wakeboard, but she likes waterskiing. I guess I should be happy that she enjoys a watersport. Anytime she tries, she gives it a half-"butt" effort, so she can say that she tried. Arrhh! |

Very cool. You guys look like you're really enjoying each other and it is great to see a couple do so much together. That is one of the things I am very thankful about with my wife...it is a blessing, don't ever take it for granted _________________ If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular? |
