Holy crap :eek: you are calling that fun?

What is the boat speed? It appears to be around wakeboarding speed????

That first pic you have that holy crap look...:)

could be fun????

[tigesinaus]

yeah its mad fun :ro:

its about wakboarding speed.. we had speedset set at 20mph, taps at 8. once the boat is run in we will do it with ballast.

there are a few beatings involved, but we can get really smooth wake clearings from both sides, the z1 wake is excellent for it!!

That looks like it hurts :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

[da.bell]

I just bid on a body board!!! That looks too FUUUNNN! Excited tp give it a shot.

[balair]

how you liking the Z1 so far?

[helmut]

The wake on your Z looks really nice plenty big with a long nice ramp. How is it boarding.

[larryueckert]

da bell we got to get nice and drunk and try this the 18 at the west coast camp trip:ro: :ro: :ro: :ro:

[tigesinaus]

yeah its a fun thing to play around with behind the boat. u get pretty smashed if u land in the flats or dont quite make the other wake but, when u get nicely across its really smooth. we usually go 2 up and jump each other, i will try and get some shots for u guys.

id recoment anyone try it, its good fun.

loving the z so far, the wake is amazing, it throws you so high and so far across without even really trying, first jump i charged like i normally would at the malibu wake and got launched way out into the flats... took me by surprise... its got a 750kg ballast system but we dont use it for boarding, just using taps is plenty for us!

Look, new tricks for my circus animals to learn (oh wait, those are my kids) :eek:
