I tried some rolls anyway in the ankle slapper surf and I paid for it. My pump unhooked in the chop just before a wave so instead of aborting, I hit it anyway and did a pretty high half roll. I was wearing my full face MX helmet and it literally saved me a trip to the hospital. There's a big gouge in my chinpad where the face piece of the helmet hit and I have a bruise on my forehead from the helmet. I'm pretty sure I got my head pinned to the bottom by the ski for a split second. I shoulda stuck with surf riding instead.

In that case I'll be putting some big :splatt: just for the viewers pleasure.:Eyecrazy: No disrespect at all. Bronson was going huge, the wave just wasn't peaking up right.

Will fo sho! Felix was steping hiting it.

We need to work on the ballast/speed a bit better to get the lipping wave at a slower speed. Sucked I didn't get to jump also but maybe if we started earilier, the "captains" might have been able to drive. Just imagine 2 6,000 pound boats weaving in a somewhat straight line 15-20 feet apart that you are supposed to get in front of, turn around and head right between them. Little freaky, right guys? :veryhappy:

Go for it Mike! I took plenty of good splats attempting BF'ers.... still not sure if it was me or the V-wake that was the problem.... I know my body position isnt perfect all the way through rotation.... God it was fun though.... Mike you deffinetly need to hit it up next time with us!

Next time, if using a SKi Natiaque again we need to put about 1000lbs worth of people in the Back..... that deffinetly helped at OWC.

Mike will have to answer

I dont think the Ski Boat had anything.

The other boat was a Super AirNatique... It had something Im sure...

Next time it should be way better with two Super air's loaded down!

isn't the wedge a malibu thing?

The Wedge is a Malibu thang :sad: It's a fag foil :nana:

I was in a 04 Super Air Nautique with no ballast tanks filled. It holds 900# and I have another 1300# of fat sacks that I use for wake surfing. None filled and still had a waist high wave.

The other boat was my friends 1998 Sport Nautique without ballast either.

I think the biggest difference in our wakes were 1. I had a lot more people (weight) in the boat. (they should have been in his boat) 2. The design of the Super Air's hull is made to put up a larger wake then the Super Sport (more of a ski boat) 3. We started drinking to early :beerchug: and the other driver wasn't on the same page as myself. (couldn't stay in a straight line) 4. We need to practice and experiment with the weight and speed to get the lip throwing forward more. It was still a blast though :brap:
