Im lost without the PW thread!!!!

Missing pics? what do you mean?

I wanted to see the boat loaded, but found the other thread describing it.

[Fiveflat]

Ah, yea no pics. Like I said, I'll never launch my boat with that many people ever. But when there's 4 wakeboard boats tied off to two houseboats and only one setup for surfing, everyone wants to go watch for a quick set.

[thtrog]

I would like to try a Bazooka surfer.

[bigdaddy_houseboater]

I surfed this weekend with a borrowed 4'4" board. Hyperlite Coex. So... its a big NO on the small board. Next one to try is gonna be 5'4". I rode without the handle for all of about 10 seconds.. then lost the wave. I need to tweak my ballast. 800 lbs was not enough to make a decent wave on my 20i. On the other hand, my kid was bustin HUGE flips on the decent wakeboarding wake.
I will post some pics when I get them...

Nice!

I need to get a bigger board or lose some weight. In the long run losing weight would be best best.

[thtrog]

I've invested a lot in my weight, so it's tough to give it up.

I forgot option 3, get BALLAST.

I've invested way too much into my beer belly...
Dale - I'm on a 4'6" surf style board. If you get a 5'4" board, you'll get too comfortable with it and it'll only be good for cruising and drinking a beer on while riding.

I only use rope and two 15" round buoys to 'anchor' my Tige

I've not even sunk my box this summer.

Or, go the opposite direction and find the biggest dang board you can...good for cruising and drinking a beer WITH FRIENDS

just imagine this behind the boat

I've not even sunk my box this summer.

Used mine once...it was sunk so well that I was barely able to retrieve it

Of course, it's not nearly as pretty as your polished box

I bet it can be a beast to retrieve. Mine does look nice my office.
