I've been working on 360s so I've taken lots of headers into the wash lately. Not as fun as it sounds lol. That wave looks great!Quote:

Went down to Canyon Lake in the TX hill country for a week. Ran into a fellow forum member and his family on Monday and got some drone shots for them. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...8577e79227.jpg

Had an awesome weekend camping on a remote island in Maine.

ktenan - where is this? It looks so flat! We love camping/boating trips. Our tow rig is our RV so we can go pretty much anywhere. I dream of the day I can surf/wakeboard on flat water.Quote:

The day we left, the chop picked up again and it was nasty. I'll probably never hit 3 days in a row of such perfect weather again in my life.
Wow, big lake! Thanks for the info! That's way up there.... a bit further from me in NJ that I expected. Amazing that you caught such good weather considering.Quote:

Any chance you bought that boat at A&S boats in Connecticut?Quote:

I think the interior with the raspberry piping pulls it all together. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...61e827d50a.jpg
kt,
that exterior is one of the more unique boats I have seen. looks great especially the white tower.....
They do a great job picking their color schemesQuote:

Gets away from the loud/busy wake boat interiors of the past and moved to a more luxury automotive style color scheme.
I am looking at another peanut butter scheme, but damn the smurf blue could be awesome with a balance of black.

Cool video @jcarter20.Quote:

Yes it was. I also had the docking lights on, which helped to see about 15’ in front of the bow, but the tower lights didn’t do much in the way of projecting out on the water. In retrospect, I probably only needed one tower light facing the surfer and 3 facing forward. That may have helped. There wasn’t much moon light, so it was pretty dark out there. We put a person in the front to help watch. It was super cool though. I would definitely do it again.Quote:

Night surfing looks pretty cool but it would freak me out lol. We never boat at night just because of fear of debris plus illegal in my state and the waters are patrolled, It didn't look like your surfer had any type of reflective device or even w glow stick on. Seems like they would be a must, unless I guess you have spot lights on your boat as well? I've seen those surf boards with crazy LED lighting on them and it looks insane lolQuote:

I don't have a BABZ for direct comparison but I can honestly say the LTU ones are three times the size of my old Exile ones.
I was WAY less nervous cozying up to Cactus' brand spanking new, paper plate, 2021 SE 550.

Trying a double surf without enough human or water ballast.
https://i.imgur.com/B4Uknc8.jpg
Not happening.
https://i.imgur.com/uLP2Vb8.jpg
Few seasons ago I had 10 on board and full ballast and we almost had it. However the wind kicked up, big swells and we barely made it off the river alive so had some reluctance to try again being so fully loaded down. The front board sends off so much spray it kind of pushes the back rider out of the wave.
Best boat dog ever. Loves to dive in after the kids.

First pic I've seen of the new one-piece flip up seat on the port side. Cool.Quote:

Here's one you don't see every day - a first for me.

It was deep enough we could motor right up to it. A bit chilly though!
That's awesome.
Always cool to find new stuff on the lake
Here are some more and drivers seat https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...63fa4a1f09.jpgQuote:

How do you like the driver's seat now that you had some time in the new boat?Quote:

When u turn power off at the key the seat lowers and pushes back out of the way of the tower. I don’t know if it swivels at all I haven’t needed to move it from facing forward. It’s comfortable to sit in side ways. When I get home I’ll see what it will do?Quote:

Love the waterfall pictures. I would really like to go places like that!
So since nobody has asked me to stop posting videos of my kids yet, here is what Zandar has been up to lately. The TS backroll he can just about land at will now, theis video is his first (and so far only) Mexican backroll he has landed. He probably has 150 attempts at that this summer. His sister, Zayla, is just starting to be able to turn on her toes.

Good times. Finally got my 360 in this year. For some reason I can only do them at the end of summer three years in a row. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...ec5fd65109.jpg
