So we finally got a chance to try out the surfboard. I must admit, I was stunned at how difficult wakesurfing was.
Mark took me and Chase out on his newly purchased Malibu, and we all messed around on the board for probably 2 hours trying to figure it out. We just couldn't quite let go of the rope.
Then we ran into Pat Tanner. He was surfing with the same board behind his boat, so we caught up to him and asked his advice. He hopped in and showed us.
This first clip is just a shorty. I'll post a longer version later. I wanted to show just a bit for now, and also check out the rope handle NAILING me, right on the money.
