keeping your balance when up is kinda the same and landing off of jumps is kinda the same but falling hurts more on water and oh yea you are getting pulled by a boat.. that kinda messes up where you should have your center of gravity a bit.. but it only takes about 30 mins to really get the hang out it

i would imagine some of the basics would be the same, definatly the whole keeping the leading edge up and not catching it. ive fallen off water tubing before and i would much rather hit the water than hit hard packed ice/rails or jibs. My boat makes a pretty big wake, hehe

edit holy shit brew, is that the thing you were talkin about? that guy is like 50 foot in the air!

yea thats the thing.. the boat only needs to do 20ish for it to get up in the air... my uncle has one up on lake george and the few times i went on it the thing would kick me off then proceed to flip over and land on me.. it hurts when you fall but it's fun while your up an flying


the site is SportsStuff ®.. so we goign out on the boat sunday now or what?.. lol
