My son had this great idea of towing the surfboard at 18-19 MPH, so we ended up trying it and it was a blast. I attached a few pics, I am on a broadcast 5 '4" board, at about 65' at 18 MPH. It like a huge wakeskate, it was just fun cruising behind the boat.

We ended up calling it "Speed surfing".....:D

Ha! Fun stuff...is that Shasta? Man it's nice to see it so full. Was there a lot of debris floating around? I'll be there in a few weeks.

Yes, that is Shasta and its full to the brim, lake was awesome.... you will have a great time. We spent couple nights in the squaw arm, and four nights in the pit arm.... water was a little cold at 70-73 degrees. Very little boat traffic, even on Saturday and Sunday it was not too bad, empty during the week.

That lake does look fun! I notice sunken trees in the background. It must be high.

I have heard other people call this Lineboarding. Try whipping around corners... :) :)
