Earlier this summer my 5 year old daughter and i went "surf boarding" behind our boat. The "surf board" is basically a 3'x7' 3/4 inch plywood with a rounded front end and fins below. The board is connected to a tow line directly to the boat. You stand up and hold on to a fixed rope for stability. This "surfboard" has towed 4 generations of skiers.

The "surf board" is large enough for Dad to manage stability and my daughter to just sit while we are stationary in the water. Once the boat is under power i just remained seated in the back of the surfboard and she stood up. Once she was comfortable i slid off the back. The boat was probably going 6-9 miles an hour. SHE LOVED IT!!!

Last night I purchased a similar tow behind. The blu N bayou ski and sled.
