You should probably stop joking around now and take Butti up on his kind offer. I always tell everyone he can ride anything with a motor, anywhere, anytime, and with finesse. My first ride I showed up with a couch for filming and towing, yet he offered his ski for me to try out…never will forget it either.

quit feeding the trolls!
Gave me this wierd visual of a troll, that should be under a country road bridge in Europe somewhere. But he's ugly as hell and he's under the lip of each and every good wave.....He won't let you enjoy it, mostly cause you don't want to hurt him, but he keeps showing up . Wave after wave. Then he smiles and gives a nod, meaning this wave is yours......then an iguana-like toungue of massive proportion snaps out and sticks to the back of your wetsuit....you're ripped off of your ski and digested within hours..
Can I have your ski?

The silver surfer guy obviously has some skilz. Just because he uses a couch to demonstrate them is not reason to jump his sh&t.
However, even though the big ride zone might have made it safer compared to years past, it still makes stand-up riders uncomfotable.
The event IS for the stand up riders.
Respect your bretheren!

Wow, just read the recent activity on this thread...

1st - LMFAO

2nd - I usually refrain from taking part in these sorts of things... however...

3rd - There are only two guys that ride sit down that I feel safe riding with (DrewProductions and Russ) - because I've been riding with them for almost 15 years now. I know how they ride, and never have to worry about them.

As for as all the other couch riders I've met over the years, most only care about going fast, turning unpredictably, cutting people off, and going where they are looking instead of looking where they are going. The ones that do not fit this description are usually old people out cruising around 10 yards off the beach making swimmers have to be on high alert.

Where we ride all summer there are a handful of us on standups, and usually about 30 - 40 sit down riders any given weekend. Most of the couchers are ignorant azzholes who come ripping into shore between boaters and do nothing but spinouts over the boaters anchor lines.

Most couchers cannot even respect other couchers. Back in the day when I had a Yamaha sit down I was out in the bay doing a headstand (nobody around) and out of the blue some jackass on a seadoo come flyin up to me and does a spin out, blasting me with his jetwash... needless to say I got blown right off and thought I broke my neck on that one. Then he takes off.
------------------

Anyway, the rules put in place are for a reason, no couches allowed at the Daytona Freeride. Whether a permit says so or the organizer/promoter says so. If you don't like it, then start your own couch freeride.

Besides, there are way more couch riders out there than stand up riders... so you're really not alone in the world... you just need to find your kind and join their herd.

rant over...

No one is stopping you. Most would probably encourage you if it meant you'd stay away from the "Nazi freeride".

those who are jet ski fanatics are strange ones.. the puzzler is the narrow view of some while they tread on the beach,neighborhood, and web so intensely. :hail::hail::hail::hail::hail:
