I love wakesurfing. Haven't done it in awhile though. Same goes for wakeboarding. My boat just sits way too low for it. I'm all over skiing and knee boarding though.

My cousin just got back from Oregon and sent me these pictures. Somewhere around the Eugene area. Looks like he had a good time -

That looks like the country side was pretty sweet up there. I guess you weren't joking about your cousin having some sick skills

I grew up skiing right when wakeboarding was coming on the scene. My days were spent behind a MC Pro-Star 190. Did a little bit of slalom, hydroslide, barefooting, and jumping. Was quite spoiled to be allowed to ski in a deed restricted "for skiing only" lake and one of the residents was the guy who held the collegiate jump record for quite some time.

Did test drive the freshwater X-Star and man o man have ski boats come a long way. Perfect pass, ballast bags. To bad I can't afford a 65K dollar "play toy."

Wish I could get the chance to get behind a boat with a good wake and a tower. As I mentioned in my previous post I have all my own gear just no boat. The friends I go with all have center consoles as we do more fishing than wakeboarding.

Anyone in the Charleston area ever looking for someone to go please PM me.

Ya I can't wait to get a chance behind a boat that has a good wake, and a tower. I am in pretty much the same boat.

I used to have a 20 foot Four Winns. I had a hard time finding people that wanted to go to the lake to wakeboard. No problem finding ladies that wanted to tan though. Guess it was still a win.
