Ok...

The kicker at the end just couldn't work with the materials we had, at least with the humps at a sane angle. It would have ended up about 160-170ft with the kicker on. So we have a little rise at the end instead that will actually give you a bit of a boot. It should work out quite nicely really... If you can make it that far.

I'm taking the day off school tommorow so I can get some action photos of Kris hitting it in time for the magazine deadlines.

Expect some pics up soon! Twisted Evil Check out my site for all the pics too.

Dammit, it's absolutely pissing down with rain today. We went out to see what we could do and couldn't even get the boat in. Looks like next week it'll happen...

Josh -
You are absolutely killing us.....I want to see video of the slider being ridden. Who cares about school anyway...It is all about wakeboarding. Laughing Laughing

Kris had to go to Queensland to pick up the World Industries/Malibu boat last w/end, so HOPEFULLY it'll happen this friday... This is really getting annoying. It's out of my control.

I'll post pics and stuff, but not 'the money shots' for the mags. Wink

Also I'll actually be video-ing it later, when we can get some crew to come down for it, so you'll have to wait.

sorry gang i have had to go north for a week. Good times had though hanging with the gang up on the goldy..... Whilst I have been away it was cats and dogs the whole week in Melbs so that makes for the bad fotos anyway......

Word on the street is this Monday is going to be the day. No doubt Josh will post sum pics asap.

Thanx for all the support guys. When the lotto company deposits my millions into my account i will fly u all down to party with us for the whole week.

till monday... Wink

We gave it a little test run today with a JetSki. Managed to get up the second hump, so when we get something with a tower on it, we'll stick the piss out of it. Twisted Evil
