I just realized your boat has shark teeth :D!
Sweet vid! Your wife does a great job pulling you in your vids.
It does. I've always thought the docking lights and bow eye looked like eyes/nose, so I added the teeth. LoL.Quote:

Yea y'all seem like you have it down good. I subbed to your channel and noticed when you take off on surfing that you press down on your back foot and seem to pop right up as you point the board toward the boat. I'm going to have to try that as it looks like much smoother starts.
Hopefully this finally works. Here a few over the past few months. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...18306a28ee.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...b4f7eaa883.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d20a571477.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...05e4ae4ba8.jpg

any of those elephant butt? my mom used to spend a ton of time there back in the 90's when she lived in abq/santa fe.
Yes! The two pictures of the boys in the blue Axis are from the Butte. The other pictures are from Navajo Lake and Vallecito Lake.Quote:

If I was on your max, she couldn't see me back there!) I've gotten to the point where she just watches for me to flip the board and then takes off. I don't even say a word.Quote:

Unfortunately I couldn't land a 360 to save my life that night. I really wanted to get first person vid of one. I was running about 50% success rate the last few times I've been out. :-/
"Just one more pull"...
Who needs to see anyway?
