Shotgun 1 #4 May 11, 2005 I love kneeboarding... I tried wakeboarding a couple of times, but I just couldn't get it. I'm too much of clutz to do anything that involves standing on my feet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jumpchikk 0 #7 May 11, 2005 I can't vote for multiple things? TUBING is my all-time favorite! We used to have two tubes on the back of my brother's boat and we would be back there combat tubing. I swear I would make that an Olympic sport! TOO MUCH FUN!! I ski either with two or slolam...never tried barefoot... I also kneeboard and wakeboard (haven't done it in a long time tho).... I love the water!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was the first person I knew wakeboarding - just saw one at the store and "had" to buy it... Since no one else was doing it, I had to teach myself how to do it, no one to learn from.... (Did the same thing with snowboards, about 20 years ago) But, my favorite thing to do is use a very short rope and wakeboard behind a jet ski... Get someone who can whip a turn, and you are going for a ride... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Acensky 0 #12 May 11, 2005 I have tried tubing but there were to many people on the lake to have it be fun. I use a boat for scuba diving. So I am not really behind it, I am more in and then under it Heather ___________________________________________________________________________________Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
