YAY for slip and slides! Ive always thought of doing this and I finally did. I set up a slip n slide on a beach and rode it hopped in the water. next time Im gonna add a kicker under the end to get a little pop into the water. It slid really good, hardly any drag and it was a fun first "slider" Colorful Also it didnt give the board one scratch. The kayak on the other hand gave it some good gouges.(Read below)

I got a really fun idea for winter. Get two slip and slides. Have one then a kayak then the other. Its easiest down a hill. Then get your buddy to run and you can hit sliders with your wakeboard without boats. Sure its not the real thing but something to keep you occupied in the winter.

my seasonal board sport chart:
summer:wakeboarding and skateboarding
fall:skateboarding
winter:snowboarding and snowskating
spring:skateboarding

mixing the seasons can end up in pain, and/or damaged boards.

I tend to not wakeboard in winter.. it's a bit to cold here in Ohio in the snow Very Happy

Pretty cool idea though, i want to set one up and slide into the lake with kickers or whatever like you did. Sounds fun. Cool

i wouldnt be, my favorites out of wakeboard, skateboard, and snowboard, is proably skateboard and snowboard. fall is perf for skate cause its not steaming like summer here in newengland, and in the winter, we can take a ccarride down to vermont or we can go to some smaller, but closer mountains. im happy with the way it is here Very Happy
