July 2019 Picture and Video thread

Did my good deed on Sunday. This Supra flagged us down as we were otw back to the ramp. Sounds like the alternator went bad and killed the batteries, and it was barely able to idle. Tossed them a line and pulled them the rest of the way in. They offered gas money but I refused, and asked that they return the favor to the next stranded boater.

Here’s a pic I got of @Bairums boat waiting at the ramp

We hit up Norris Lake for an adult only trip last week. It is always fun to act like idiots for a few days. [emoji12]

The wife was finally able to drop the rope and surf an entire song. She was pumped.

Just a few things my 9 year old has been working on behind the Max with 55ft of rope at 19mph and half full ballasts. The W2W stuff he has in the bag, but that backside 180 still needs work. The plan is to land it blind before school starts.

Dude, you got a future PWT champ on your hands. That is awesome! Good to see some people out there still wakeboard.

Thanks bro, we'll see how far he progresses before Halloween. Wakeboarding is where it's at. I only let him surf when the water is too nasty to wakeboard, or after a really good session if we have time. It's like a reward.

Damn. nicely done. That surface 360 was super stylie. I like. I've never tried the heelside half cab, I always do my from the toe-side so I'm landing them heelside switch. He'd be fun to ride with. I could see us fueling each other's stoke. :-D

Wakemakers bringing Christmas in July! [emoji16]

Can't wait to try out an extra 1000lbs next week at the TX JAM [emoji305][emoji305]

Nice! Take a pic of the wave with that load.

We went out last night until the sun set. First time for this guy to surf, and he dropped the rope within 30 seconds...

so he gets a congratulatory [emoji481]

Moved tabs around like Matt suggested in other threads and even in 14-18 feet of water, TONS of push. If I fall out of the pocket the back of the wave just scoops me up and shoots me forward. Ballast is 90 front, 100 port, 85 starboard with surf tab at 35-40 and wakeplate at 0-12. 11.1mph

Riding the 4'6 Doomsell Nubstep and the 4'10 Ronix Potbelly Cruiser. Both are great. The Cruiser can surf wayyy back at the curl, crazy. Still had push, only thing that stopped me back there was the curl hitting the top of the board and slowing me down.

Had a friend’s daughter up for the first time. And she did a transfer/surfed goofy!
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...9936f0782e.jpg

Just cruising back to dock with 15-20% ballast at 17-18. Wake looking siiiick. Tore my right shoulder up 7/2 and ultrasound this morning showed no tear. Back to riding soon!
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...6c2a5d2f58.jpg

Also should mention, have just added 500# of lead, 200# each rear side and 100# up front.

Good looking wave. I set my plates at 60 surf side, wake plate 25, and 0 on the non-surf side. Pitch at 7.5 for both surf sides, and roll at 5.0 for surf right and -3.0 for surf left. I found that is my sweet spot. I also have stock ballast with 300lbs of lead, all in the rear. I put 200 on the surf side and 100 on the non-surf side.

New 3D printed flag mounts are on. Spinning poles make them awesome in the wind.

Really disappointed in lake Travis. With wind conditions the amount of no wake zones in every cove. The no trespassing, no mooring, stay of beach shoreline signs it was a real bummer water was super clear and had some great views. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...6929f4369b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f111598799.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c5503dad4b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...10378543d9.jpg

Talk about a nasty storm on the back side of this. Luckily we made it into a covered slip until it passed.

Back home from the Dallas boat show, didn’t bring anything home with us but helped us confirm our model for the spring order. And this one wasn’t too far off on colors or options either. Salesman was great to talk to as well.

Yes, I’ve actually known for a bit but can’t say anything as I was told not to say anything until it comes out. Going to be a nice model for someone looking for a shorter boat than we’re looking at and ready to[emoji2101]

Cleaned up with a little hotsauce and a damp rag before going out:

Wife doing her thing. I had put a 2” fin on her phase5 for her to get used to it last year, and finally swapped it back to the tiny “stock” fin. She did amazingly well, her turns were much more crisp, and she didn’t lose the edge as much as I was worried she would.

Stopped and chatted with a fellow forum member for a minute

I have a LOT of posts and pictures to go through since being MIA this summer. I've finally made the jump and put my cleaning, detailing, restoring, protecting, and sealing skill to use. I've offically opened Exclusive Mobile Deatail and Restoration for all automobiles and vessels around Utah. Did a full restoration on a Toyota Tundra yesterday and kocked it out of the park.

Nope just a good sealant. We didn't have a clean enviroment to ceramic, it's coming soon on this Tundara though.

Tell the owner to stay away from the car wash!!!!! Lol

Got to have a (mainly) guys only trip this weekend after getting home from deployment. Buddy brought his new jet ski and I taught some others to drive my boat so I can actually get on the end of the rope myself. The storms rolling in made for some good pics, and cleared the lake out enough to play.

I’ve seen this Helix before last season and we must have passed each other 4 or 5 times today.

While I was out I played around with many different settings to get a better understanding what the effects were. Good learning experience every time I take the boat out. Different wave shapes...
