Lake Billy Chinook mid morning

Uh, still mid morning

"Killer" - yeah right. This is the "grand-dog". She learned how to swim pretty quick.

That was me back there - man, they are quick on the draw with that flag...

Now I don't know for sure, but I didn't see any fences for miles and miles. Thinking these were free range (wild) horses at Billy Chinook?

Another shot of killer... Ok, her name is Lola. Pretty good little boat dog. Blows me away she can sleep right in front of the subwoofer for hours.

That Lake Billy sure remindes me of home
@ Berg where you there this weekend? We saw the same couple horses but one was a baby at water side, even saw 3 cows lol all on the Reservation side where you cant go.
Was there July 28-31. Saw the baby horses as well. Probably 9 total and they were all very skitterish - pretty cool as my daughter is a total horse nut. We drifted right past and got some cool shots and vid.
Heres a few shots we had at LBC this past weekend.

We blew up the tube (*gasp*) and did a little filming from it. Here's a few screen grabs -
Most of the film of me was out of frame, this is as good as it got

Apparently I was better at keeping my buddy in frame

working now?
please note, this is my first year boarding. tell me what i am doing wrong please!
Now we're talkin. Ya know, if you stand a little taller into the wake right when you finish your approach you'll have that W2W down smooth as butta... Have you landed many W2W yet?
never landed a w2w, just get about as close as you see in the video. thats at like 65 ft and 21.6 mph
water temp when that video was shot was 94 degrees, about a half mile farther up river from where that video was filmed we pass an 8 foot or so gator. he was up by the bank upside down and not moving, i think he was dead
Here are the 4 amigo's that I had behind my boat..
I thought it was a big deal until I saw a Nautique with 10 behind his!

That looks like Kal Lake Grant?
RE: Grants' Post. That right there is probably one of the best testimonials for the 1847 prop I've seen yet...
you're technique looks real solid, edge a tad harder and you got it no problem.Quote:

This was our first time spent on Kal for the week and we loved it, we got out early and got the watersports in and then did some cliff jumping and there's a cool rope swing on the east side of the lake. The lake does get busy on nice saturdays though!Quote:

He owned almost that entire stretch of waterfront stretching well back into Cougar Canyon which is behind that hillside.Quote:

You should see the wake this thing makes when it's taxiing at slower speeds. All of the jet skiis come out to get some serious airtime! Sorry no pics of that.
Wonder what kind of surf wake they throw????

Put it this way, you could surf it with a SUP (Stand up Paddle Board)
Holy crap that plane is awesome!! It looks like your son is at least on the dock playing with the tablet. Mine made the trip onto the boat last trip via my daughter. Luckily she didn't play with it for more than a couple minutes.
