Who else is riding?

Here's my lousy form and my surprised look when I landed my 360 on Saturday.

Here's a couple from this weekend.

I'm really happy with my new IS Squirt! It's fast enough to not even need to pull yourself up into the pocket, just transfer the weight forward and off you go. Once in the pocket, I had to relearn to keep my weight back to keep myself off the platform.

WHAT?! Frontside? You infadel! Good for you, Nick. I can't ride for extended periods like you, my legs get tired, using the "wrong" muscles or something, but I'm good for a session or two. Isn't Judy a trooper? She has all 4 orientations and hits them all when we ride both sides. Thanks for the props. How was Tahoe? Is it freezing up there still?

I know, right?

Judy is really killin it this year. That's awsome. My wife got in a little switch session as well yesterday.

Tahoe was really nice yesterday up until about 2:30 when the wind picked up. However, nice on Tahoe is a junk show anywhere else. Just letting go of the rope is tough as the boat is constantly pitching and rolling from all the rollers. The wake is in a constant state of flux and you really have to be quick to hang with the boat. A lot of times you find yourself running perpendicular to the shore just to get some sort of consistency in the wake. When you run parallel to the shore, the boat just rolls from side to side on boat wakes and it is a true battle.

The water was a pleasantly warm 60 degrees and man, is it full. They haven't been letting hardly anything out of it because by the time the Truckee river gets to Reno, it is borderline flood stage already. If they start dumping Tahoe into it, it will flood. It's crazy.

Here's a couple of phone pics (forgot the camera). First one is my buddy's boat. Second is a pics of the elusive Ceturion Tsunami (not so quick on the draw from me but, that is Tsunami). Third is what is left of the beach. Not much.

Hey Nick, the Tsunami is that 30' I/O isn't it? That thing always looked huge to me.

We had a day of 3's, Judy ALMOST landed a switch frontside 3, I didn't get it on camera, but the sequence below gives an idea.

...and more.

...and STILL more.

and the pièce de résistance.

One more, Dennis on the FlyBoy prototype. Not his best form, but he does have mad skills on that little board! 6'2", 270 pounds on 4'5" x 1.5" thick wakesurf board.

That's the one.

Judy is a killer!

[Surfdad]

Isn't Judy? She is going to dominate the combined master's divisions, I'll have to "lose" her board! She is a breath away from landing her 3's! and some new tech for James.

Check me out! Now that I've masteredthe surface 3 (in this context I define "mastered" as success 2% of the time ) I'm moving on to airs! All fins are out of the water, and I'm sticking to that story!

[Surfdad]

I always struggle with embedding a YouTube video, hopefully I can do this again! We have some new tech that we have been working on for a bit now. Finally got a solid board for James to do some riding on. In this short unedited video it's about 15 minutes into James first ride on the board. James does an air 3, slash, grabbed ollie indecision, grabbed ollie 7 and surface reverse part of a wind to unwind.

[Surfdad]

Check us all, including fiveflat and crew!

What is that new board? I really like the look of it. It looks right. Its also a twin. Tell me tell me tell me.
