What kind of board is your son riding? In the market for my 5 yr old.
with temps in the 90's and wind at 15 to 20 (there were guys kiteboarding in our river!), we got a crew together to do a different type of boating. Floating, cruising, swimming, BBQ'd lamb tacos...

And the sunset's are always better from the water.

One of the great things about this forum, hooked up with Trayson while visiting family in Oregon.

Darter - Where did this take place? Who supplied the adaptive gear? How did the kids know about the opportunity to get on the water? Tell us a little about the day. This is wonderful. Bet everyone had a great time! - Deerfield

The day we were there they had a group come in the morning and another in the afternoon.Quote:

The tow boat was a late sixties Correct Craft Mustang that was followed by a Hydrodyne chase boat. Apparently being an adaptive ski spotter also requires special training too as I was only allowed to spot for the regular skiers.
There were skiers of all ages. The youngest looked like maybe 4. She had a Great Dane service dog that pulled her wheelchair around. When she skied, she was so little that they had to pad the seat with an old wetsuit duct taped on so she'd fit!
Really was a great way to spend the afternoon... Might head out again next time they do it.

Had a small crew today only me and my wife , so the wave was pretty small and short , and apparently I don't know how to use auto wake , but some shots using auto wake because I can, then one of the glass we missed because we had to cut out early , but a great day on the waterhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...0bbbab153b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...cefe09d93c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1870427774.jpg

Definitely tows harder than the MB--I have a cabin and a hoist so its not a recurring issue. But I did tow it 150 miles to my lake and all in all it wasn't horrific (except for the fuel economy).Quote:

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.
