I was just wondering if any active wakeboarders were on this site. We have a place in Dead Timbers and I ride around that slough most of the time. See ya on the water this summer.

I don't think now is a real good time to be wakebording in dead timbers. Do you have your family already in?

Family already in what? I'm 19....
What do you mean it isn't a good time to wakeboard in dead timbers? I wasn't talking about wakeboarding at all right now, too cold....but why not dead timbers specifically?

Have you even been over there when the water is up? Pretty much every tree that could do damage to a boat is marked and the place has been in my family some 30 years or so so we know the general area of where the trees are.... Thanks for your worthless comment.
And what do they say about wakeboarders? :P

Wakeboarders know enough to avoid mudpuddles; it makes the wetsuit feel slimy.

I've yet to see a decent wakeboarder on this lake. I don't expect to see them doing flips and all like on ESPN, but when someone gets good enough to do anything more than hang on and cross the wakes, someone take a picture please.

usually the ones that are good enough to impress people arent around people. . . .they are away from traffic back in an empty end of the lake like they should be. There they can practice and perform all they want without ticking any one off. . . . .but without the public being aware of them either. I happen to know of a couple of professional wakeboarders on our lake. . .if they were less responsible, you would all know about them too.
|
We have several big-air guys on the south west end. I'm too old to be one of 'em, but I ride with and pull a few......like Sig said, usually on weekdays when nobody is around. It makes for better conditions all around.

There was on guy that used to ride in my slough that was pretty good but I didn't see him at all last year. All I see on our lake is the boats but no one behind them (due of course to rough conditions). Most of the locals (Auburn) that I know are just posers and had their daddy's buy them a "cool" wakeboard boat and have never before used wakeboards that have been on the racks since they got the boat.

Obviously , you have not had the pleasure of watching me wakeboard. I do flips all the time........just not intentionally.

Haha. Yeah when I ride on my wakeskate I like to see how far I can make myself fly off the wake and dive (or fall) in the water. Or try and do the largest raley I can with no board under me... :)

There's a story on wakeboarders on Lake Martin in that new LAKE Magazine (NOT Lake Martin Living) that came out this week. Cool picture of doing tricks as well, it says it will be continued April's issue too... So you can probably find out the goods on wakeboarding the lake from there... here is the link: www.lakemartinmagazine.com

There's a few young guys (my daughter calls them HOT) that do all sorts of jumps in a slough across from Real Island,... aka Blue Blood Ally,... I think. They're pretty good, and are there most weekends. My son (13) is a newcomer to the sport. They're fun to watch, experienced and the not so.
