Location:Bayou Bonfouca <<lol its true
I jumped the wake, landed it and did a 180 upon landing all on accident lol. Then, did another 180 to get back to normal and went over the wake to get a suburb face plant wipe out.
Got it on film too but I need to get it from my cousin.

My right knee almost bent out sideways when I fell one time but it didn't break.

I think I might need to put the fins on...

I'm not sure my wake is sufficient for huge air... but I am a novice so...

Riding doubles is so much fun. Up north at my dad's place you can get away with it all day. I think if we tried it around here the warden would bust us. The last time I was out we got pulled over because apparently I came within 75' of their boat and I'm supposed to stay 100' away.

Guess I shouldn't complain too much, we didn't get a ticket, just a written warning. I thought we were going to get a ticket for sure though, the guy looked thoroughly ticked and we were a younger crowd with a tower and wakeboards. Good thing we had everything else they wanted to check, registration, number of vests, etc.

In WI boats and riders have to stay at least 100' away from boats and other riders. To my knowledge.. I would *love* to be proven wrong though. There were a couple opportunities we had, but I was afraid of getting ticketed.

Ah the good old days. When you were trusted you could take care of yourself and would take care of others.

Wakeboarder3780, why would you come that close to any other boat at riding speed, especially the warden's boat? the more you post the dumber i think you are

awesome, welcome to the sport. getting your first air is always cool. just wait until you go wake to wake. your hooked then and become obsessed with getting better.

that washed out wake is gonna really give you troubles, a white wake will trip you alot as seen in pic 3. injuries=bad.
try playing with speed or moving people forward or back until the white is behind where you hit the wake.

cool pics and keep us posted with your progress.
