Pics From Bull Shoals Lake

[saltare inverts]

Boat getting ready for action. Jumping from clifs about 65 foot high. Even higher when water is lower (20 feet) at normal pool. Notice the clear smooth water. Luv it.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm, water looks great, interior looks better!!!

[saltare inverts]

SOme more pics. The wake is not weighted at all. Newbies want it small as possible. Two people on boat at 24 mph. Baby asleep on our twin seat while cruising, doesnt get any better.

Thanks for posting, those are awesome pics! The boat looks super sick and the water is so clear I would love to be at that lake! Did you see the article with Shaun Murray at Bull Shoals recently? Oh and the wake with no weight looks pretty sickkkk!!!

ps - post about 100 more pics plz!

I love that area, and being in Missouri don't live to far from there. We are heading for Norfork lake thursday morning for the 4th of July holiday and will go to Bull Shoals as well, thanks for sharing some great pics!

Pull on Fuel TV showed an episode a few weeks ago where they went to that lake. Looked like a beautiful place.

[saltare inverts]

I used to tell nobody about that lake so I could keep to myself. Everyones been so helpfull here had to pass it on.Mikeyd, Yea I saw article with Murray, I told him not to tell the world. Too late. Csuggs, love it when they play so hard they fall asleep just about anywhere once you take a boat cruise. Rwadlow, you will have the time of your life. Jonyb, what is a good way to find out when they have watersports on fuel?

[saltare inverts]

Wife clearing wake. Couple of the crew cooling off.

[jonyb]

If you've got a DVR, you can search for Pull, and set it to record the whole series. Otherwise, www.fuel.tv should have a programming guide. They also show the King of Wake Series, and a few others.

Totally awesome!!! Thanks for sharing, I'll keep checking back for more hehe!

I remember when I went out with my Dad when I was a kid the motor always put me to sleep.... great pic. Now our 6 mo. old Golden Retriever gets put to sleep when we are running the boat.

[saltare inverts]

SunsportMD, thanks. I will have a hard time hitting as many pics as you got on you pride and joy thread. Fman, it is great. Years a go I had a jet ski and my oldest daughter and her cousin would fall asleep on it when I was driving. So I would find a cove and sit for a hour trying not to move so they would not be cranky if not enough sleep. I do enjoy the boat so much. To be honest there are times when I look at it and I am just glad it floats.

My first bow cushion remake. My son with dirty face and bloodshot eyes, but having a ball.

[mapleleaf]

Nice work with the stitching, can't wait to get back into mine when I get home....
Looks like you've been towing that boy around for 24 hrs. straight!!!

[saltare inverts]

Yea hew was playing hard. Justr got done doing high dives from cliffs. He was fearless and worn out. I am afraid how he will be when he is 10 and stronger.

[sunsport22]

hey saltare where do you normally ride in missouri

[saltare inverts]

Normally in the Missippi River. I can usually find smooth water on it. It is not clear but smooth. On occasin I will go to Mark Twain lake. I am looking for some different lakes to try though.

[sunsport22]

where at on miss i use to go up there alot we go to kaskaskia and meramec now since its up how is mark twain

[saltare inverts]

Sunsport22, We drop in at Elsberry normally. Good water not too many boats. Mark Twain is full of hidden trees. You cant get close to shore without wondering. Makes smooth water tougher to find. Alot of fisherman. How is Meramac and Kaskaskia? Never been to either. Do you live close to Saint Louis?

[87SunSportMikeyD]

I ride the Miss too, in MN! I've lost a couple life jackets let me know if you find one. :)

[saltare inverts]

SunsportMikeyd, what color, neoprene, anyone in them? I did find a beer can from you boat, hope you didnt want it I threw it away.

[sunsport22]

hey ya i live right outside in arnold mermac is nice now cuz its up and lots of smooth water and kaskaskia is glass all the time there having this thing called kylefest july 17-19 huge wakeboard fest this will be my first year attending

[saltare inverts]

I saw something about that somewhere. I thought about going also. Is there a website. Wondering how far from here it is.

[sunsport22]

ya i believe its on mowake.com

[87SunSportMikeyD]

...just my way of saying Cheers!!

[saltare inverts]

Cheers back at you 87SunsportMikeyD. Thanks for the life Jackets, i keep a look out. Hows your perfect pass DIY going. Sunsport22, I found the website, looks like fun. I am trying to get there that weekend. I have a couple friends wanting to go. Is it kid friendly at all, I want to bring ny 3 year old son. Couple of pics of Missip river last Saturday. Wife acting like its her boat, look at all the smooth water!

[sunsport22]

im not positive but i believe it is kaskaskia had always been very kid friendly but im not 100% sure and yes i love the miss heading up there this saturday hoping to finish a couple of tricks i have been working on

[saltare inverts]

What tricks Sunsport?

[sunsport22]

i can do alot of 180s and some switch 180s and alot of the grabs now im moving up im trying a toeside backflip and a heelside hoochie glide still learning

[saltare inverts]

Will those be your first inverts Sunsport?

[sunsport22]

yes got any tips

[saltare inverts]

Have you tried any. Backroll was easiest for me to learn. Throw the roll until the tip of your board is across the top of the wake. In other words wait for the pop then roll. Dont aim to far away from boat, go at wake with 45 degrees not ninety. Keep eyes open, can be hard to do. These will help on all inverts except trip tricks such as Tantrum or Scarecrow. Let me know what you are trying?

[mapleleaf]

She looks great making it look like it's hers...just tell her she can't keep it!!!! It's hers anyway!!!!!
That boat just keeps look'in better and better!!!!!

[saltare inverts]

Thanks Mapleleaf. I am getting quite attached. I will have money for a newer one next year but I think I stay witht his one. Atleast I know what has and hasnt been fixed.

[sunsport22]

ya i tried a toeside backroll and got halfway first time and second time not so good but havent got to try for liek a week or two due to rain

[saltare inverts]

Half way around almost always means throwing trick to early. Do not throw trick until your board is leaving wake or atleast most of it. I did that for a long time. Those falls hurt worse than any fall you can get on a backroll. Be patient, throw it later you will be happy.
