I’ll trade you some 360’s for some air!
Biggest secret I can give is give the board one good quick pump up the wave and try to Ollie just like a skate board or wakeboard. But you’ve gotta pull your back leg up to so the board can follow.

Well the wife and kiddos got out on the water today at Conroe onboard our old Moomba thanks to my dad.

Lindale to drop two of hers off at Papas house for the week.

On a wakeboard yes, you push down wish the rear foot, like a skateboard, before doing the jump. On a surf board it’s basically a jump.

All of the above... lol
It’s onr of those things that’s tough to explain. And Trayson I feel your pain, I had a couple spin attempts last night trying out my new prop, and landed on my knees somehow on the hammerhead. Nice bruise right beside my kneecap. Luckily I caught the board when it rolled and tried to nut-shot me! Lol
OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, after a double header of boating last weekend (and like 20 "almost" 360 attempts with 1 success) I found my back hurting pretty bad. Took the morning off from work (because I have like 6 months of sick time accrued) and even after yesterday's Chiropractic visit, I'm still not 100%. Dammit getting old.
But I'm back at it after work today! high of 96 and low wind in Portland! We're gonna be on the river FO SHO! (and bonus, our water temp will be "up" to 65 degrees! LOL)
And I got a new little toy... (or a bigger toy?)

Great night on the water. The launch was as crazy as 4th of July. The big Christensen yacht was parked by their launch blocking off 1 of the parking lots so the main lot was crazy full of cars without trailers. Thankful to have crew today that did truck valet.

On the way back we felt s loss of power and vibration that came on suddenly. Got out the dive mask and found a small branch between 2 of the blades of the prop and a lot of leaves in the water where I must have mulched the rest of it. Thankfully no damage and just an unwanted late night swim. Glad for the dive goggles I keep onboard.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...152c864b71.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...e9397afe72.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...a5ce73ba2a.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...a204633be0.jpg

The yachts were cool but it will be interesting to see some of these rolling down the river...

I'll always remember seeing this guy at the launch in 2015 and trying to keep up unsuccessfully as it disappeared downstream. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...93df0f6b5d.jpg

Nice pics everyone!
Trayson, you always catch some nice sunset pics on the way in.
Not technically the boat but my wife picked up a new tow vehicle while I’m deployed! Now I’ve just got that much more of a reason to want to be back home!
2019 Laramie Sport. Going to put a set of Timber Grove bags on the back with the air management mounted in the floor cubbies.

Dropped the boat in and tied up at the slip on Tuesday for the season. Showed back up this morning to this gem of a surprise! Any suggestions on replacing the glass is appreciated, feel free to PM me.

Either way, got out on the foil for a bit.

I am going to guess replacing the glass will require going through supplier of windshield.

Finally the spot has opened and we got EPIC!

This one was the 2019 SA450. Being at higher elevation and the new gearing Marine Products decided to give the 450 a test. Just switched the prop to a 16x12.5 and I'm prettry impressed. Now it was only the wife and I but also had 300 in lead, but it shoots to wake speed fully loaded pretty decent, you do have to use launch.
Without slamming the boat it throws some meat.

We had a terrible forecast, but the weather turned out perfect... no wind until 5p, all sun.
