    New place to wakeboard in Las Vegas!

    To set this up, we had the 10th rainiest day in Vegas history yesterday causing localized flooding, especially near UNLV and the parking lots there.

    Check out this dude!

    That's pretty cool. Saw the flooding on the news.

    What is the tow method?

        Its a winch. You can hear the motor wrap out on it and he says its a winch in another video.

          No winch in that video and you can see a jeep type vehicle going across the parking lot ahead of him.

          The winch and pro film crew came later in the day. Still pretty cool though!

              I remember as a kid, summers of 83 and 84 in LV. Rained so much. Streets were rivers and every kid had a raft. It was awesome. In the olden days the charleston underpass would flood at the slightest hint of rain and every time there would be a car stuck in it. every time.

                When I was a young boy in the 70's in Texas, it snowed pretty heavily one winter. My Dad took an old pair of wood water skis and removed the skags, then pulled us around the neighborhood behind his old truck! Good times.... Safe? Probably not, but somehow we survived!. Sorry, went a little . Just wanted to say sometimes its fun to be a little "unsafe" and live a little like the guy in the video!

                  Thanks for showing our video! This is actually behind the winch, the same one we used in the video that we created. The jeep just happened to pull out, the winch is the back of a truck about 15 ft in front and to the right of where i stop at the end of the video!

                  Again thank you for sharing and watching.

                  Here is a link to our full version.
