Dang. 24-hrs non-stop?

Find it odd that live feed will be streamed for the first 19 hours, but not the final 5. Why stop for the last portion?

[ragboy]

No, I think he is going to feed the beginning and the LAST 5.

What the hell....Sounds interesting. I hope he can do it. On the fly fueling???

Pull up beside him with another boat and let him go from toe side to heel side...maybe? Could be done with a rope to be sure he does not fall. The record does not have to be done all freeriding, right?

Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Oklahoma Breakdown]

Wow, that would be an amazing feat. Gotta be tough to keep it together for that long...

[Moki]

I wonder if he falls at all, does invalidate the record or if he gets back up in some amount of time does it still count? That is going to be a long night...should be a lot of fun -especially when it's over.

[rickd3508]

I'd hate to have to drive the boat that long...lol

[talltigeguy]

It should be streaming now, but it ain't. Maybe a big northern pike got him in the middle of the night.

This is amazing, I could not find any of the answers to the many questions we have. Have you guys ever tried standing for 24hrs? This is going to be crazy, I wonder how he's physically going to be able to do it. The boat trade-off is going to be interesting to watch. After many years of watching 24hs of Le Mans and Daytona, I really feel for this guy.

[Ewok]

and it is streaming now

From Ragboy's site:

"For the Rules, short breaks were allowed for refueling (we took a avg of 9min to fill up 45 gallons or gas from boat to boat), also every hour of surfing you could get 5 min of "rest time" nurses checking to see how you are doing, getting some food in and drink in. Falls are allowed, but remember if you go 24 with 2 falls and someone else goes 24 with 1 fall they would get the record.

There had to be 2 witnesses 1 nurse 1 driver and 1 manager every 4 hours, the witnesses could not know me, so as you can imagine there was tons and tons of planning and trying to get people there. Also on top of that had to be a lot people running around (gas people, other boat drivers, tons and tons of stuff) this has been in the works since feb 2010

Getting approved from the surrounding towns and village to boat at night was the hardest part, well everything was pretty insane, standing for 24hr was not easy at all

my total time was 24hr 19min

If anyone tries to beat me, they must remember that was just my warm up run..."
