Here's my favorite youtube video. It combines boats and surfing my 2 favorite things in the world!!!!

Gotta admit, pretty cool. Must be a hella long paddle back up river though. :beer:

How about the guy surfing behind his own wakeboard boat, Ghostrider style?

I hope there aren't any docks on that river! I hate it when the wakeboarders come by my dock. A pile driver rig sunk next door to us, wife and kids saw it sink. The owner was pissed about it sinking (b/c it weighed 70k lbs!). I think he emptied his whole toolbox throwing things at the boats passing by creating a wake while he was trying to salvage all he could. Screwdrivers were flying! But he didn't hit anybody....thankfully.

The call to the insurance company and police would be interesting after a long swim to shore..

I have never been that blonde. If I tried that I think I would have a backup plan, like a 25' teathered kill switch for the safety of others and the preservation of what is surely a expensive boat.

Imagine if the steering failed and it went full lock at speed. That guy would be lucky not to get run over.
