Why is it that every time I watch a wakeboard/surfing clip on YouTube it's these kids cruising in a 100K Mastercraft! Who are these kids that can pull that off?

It physically pains me to say this, but...When I was there age, we had my dad’s 18ft Crestliner and my soon to be engineering buddies decided nothing could possibly go wrong if we use a 10ft aluminum fence post as a boom and secure it with a series of eye bolt's and ratchet straps!

I later found out the hard way they were wrong. But, I’ll save that story for another day...
