Surfing is boring

[SC Ink]

We need to come up with some Inter Moomba Surfing Challenges.

Yesterday was one of those days where everything was perfect.

Overcast, low humidity, 90 degree air temp, 85 degree water temp, no wind and the entire lake was smooth as glass.

Everyone in the boat was able to surf around the entire lake.

I have to admit - it was pretty boring.

I was thinking about our "surf a mile challenge", but that turned out to be too easy.

Maybe we should see who can do the most unusual things while surfing...

like juggling while surfing, playing an acoustic guitar while surfing...

Last year we had a beer can stack challenge while riding. Pop cans if no juice on the lake.
Rule is no littering, so if you drop one, you gotta bail and pick them up. Obviously empties.

I still haven't done 2 boat wakesurfing. Weighted opposite, creates a huge center spline you can surfe the regular side or Goofy. Good drivers are key (one with PP, the other just keeps good spacing/even).

2 people on the same board surfing. A lot of fun. I haven't landed a 3 with my 5yr old son on my shoulders.

Ed, try some 360's

[you da man]

Maybe you should strap on a wakeboard and try different jumps. Sounds like you're just cruising and a little slashing. Try doing some 360's or shuvs. I know the Outback V is not going to allow for big airs.

We have done a game of catch when two of us are out there. We tried making a samich with all the fixins, that went well at best. We have dome all the goofy things, Drink a soda,eat,toss marshmellows and try and get them in the persons mouth, chips and dip. i guess it's boring sometimes but it is still better tham nothing.

I am going to try the stack of soda can thing.

yup, arleardy started working on 360's.

That's how I ended up surfing with the 2 fins facing the boat - kinda got stuck in the position

That's what I like about the CWB Ride, you can remove the two outer fins and reverse the center fins - like a wakeboard configuration.

Try surfing standing backwards heals to the front it's actuly very hard to do , I also tried for a vary long time to do a hand stand no avail.

I agree - mix it up!

OK, I've changed my opinion

If I could even just get up on a board and cruise in a straight line, I'd be happy.

Think one could get pulled out of the water one handed?
