How do you like the skimskate?
More importantly- WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING PUTTING A PERFECTLY GOOD BEER AT SUCH RISK????? Seriously though, did the guy catch it?

I was there.. he caught it...and drank it.. minimal risk runnin John Deere style.
Skimskate is probably more difficult to ride than a Landlok, but might have more trick potential from what I've heard.

We just got the skate...it's a bit shorter and I think a bit harder to keep runnin', but once we run a couple times on it, I think it'll be easier to 'slash' with.
The beer was at risk...but I came through. Not a drop was spilled.

Such talent. Ever consider a crossover sponsorship from a beer company?

You will have to try the beer helmet some time... it works wonders!

Have a 2000 X-Star too and going to start wakesurfing soon. Any tips and details on how you have it weighted??
Currently have center ballast sack, plus to hard tanks on either side of the engine. Triple KGB I think is what its called. Also have two fatsacks.

| We were running a full fat sack (500lbs) in the rear on the port side, full centerline KGB and about 300 lbs in the nose. Pretty much just emptied the rear starboard sack and we got a nice riding curl. Put all your observers in the port rear corner and you should be set! We had 3 observers and the driver that particular session.

Thanks. Looks like we've got the tools we need.
"We had 3 observers and the driver that particular session. "
Plus the cooler I'm sure....
