8 year old son, getting close to ropeless
Typical Saturday for me... Boat, women, ski, wakeboard, surf...

Had a friend on our boat. Never been wakeboarding or surfing. Had about a 1/2 hour session. a couple pulls to get up. a few pulls of line riding, and ended with a long, controlled freeride. That's how it's done for sure!
The biggest thing he did was actually listen to all the coaching I gave him and did exactly what I told him to do. I was impressed. (that said, if I would have had the right board, the right wave, and someone to coach me through exactly what to do; I would have been freeriding on day one also. But with a dirty direct drive wake I had to be content with rope slacking to start when my surfing adventures began).
All goes to say that it's really not that hard to get up to speed surfing.

My friend and I took our boats out to Possum Kingom Lake this past weekend for a camping trip.
Spent some time surfing and hanging out in Hells Gate. This was my first trip out to PK, will be going back for sure!
