Grrr....i was introduced to wakeboarding this year after a guy i met brought me on the boat and now i'm addicted....well now 6 months later we've broke up and my new board and i are stuck on dry land i think....its really his roommates boat and he says its still okay if i go with them (my ex was the one who called off the relationship saying he just didn't have feelings for me) so can i go or not?? or do you all think it will cause problems... |

Go and see what happens. There will only be problems if the two of you let them happen. Are you over this guy? Can you both be mature about the situation or is there unresolved stuff? Is wakeboarding really important to you? I think you can find ways around this. Post on the find a pull forum here and on wakeworld and you should be able to find a ride on another boat. |

Erika,
If he called off the relationship, I dont see why not..if you detect its a problem, find some other guys to ride with..there are a few girls that ride with me, and we dated (past tense) we still ride together and its still fun.. |

I know that if I was the one that called off the relationship I could care less if the chick came on the boat. Unless I called it off because she was pyscho or some other reason that would make me NOT want her around. He seems not to care, might as well catch a ride and get back in the sport. _________________ "What do you mean you're done for the night...Insomnia doesn't even open until 4.

ditto what b-rad says.... give the roomy a shout and tellem you would like to catch a pull (just be prepared for your ex to be around other women, if he's there at the same time you are)....or you could always come down to TX, i know plenty of guys (including my self who would be more than happy to bring more ladies!) _________________ www.under360.com |

Erika- When your back in Louisiana you can come ride with me!!! I live in New Orleans. I wouldn't worry about your ex, but I wouldn't call him for a pull. I would find another boat to go ride with and smile real big when you see him!!!!

Erika I was/am in a very similar situation. Although she broke it off with me, and said she would stop going with us. I told her that was cray. How could I get her addicted then not let her come ride. Any way the first time we were out it was weird. Heck it was only a few days later. I am sure the next time wont be any problem.
If he says he doesn't care then by all means go for it, just drive seperate incase it is wierd and you want to leave early. _________________ I'm back! after 5 years |

Hey, as long as you can both be adult & leave any issues at the shore, it should be fine. |

Where in Louisiana are you at? Matt Lockwood from the CWB facotry team is going to LSU now and I know that he rides a lot up there. I can get his cell for you if you are near that area. _________________ "What do you mean you're done for the night...Insomnia doesn't even open until 4.

Erika- Did you know that Tulane has a wakeboard club? It's only $100 for the whole year!!! Even if you do not go to Tulane you can still become a member for the $100!!! They have a '01 Malibu Wakesetter. Here's the number 864.8224 The president's name is Andy. (I hope this is not your ex). Also, If you want pulls we go every weekend and have a '03 Super Air Nautique 210 Team. In two weeks there will be a wakeboard event here in New Orleans. It's NO Pros Just Bros and you can find pulls there. If you didn't know there is a wakeboard shop in New Orleans NOBS- New Orleans board shop. It's on Oak St.-uptown 2 blks. off of S.Carollton (Later- Tamara Melton 862.6273)no_bs@bellsouth.net |

i heard about the no pros just bros and think i'll probably show up for that. where can if find out more info about the wakeboard club?? I think i vaguely met John at Camp Pull Me last weekend, the boat was sweet. And i think i'll have to check out the board shop, any girl clothes? I tried but rukus doesnt have much of a selection for us.....
and if you all have room occasionally i'd love a pull email or call
318-201-6758 or tainted_faire@yahoo.com |
