great stuff. Tried with my daughter on saturday and thought I was gonna drown, but we weren't choking up for her! I'm gonna make this happen.

Yeah, the trick is the front person has to choke up, we have been doing this for a while, on several types of boards. Here are some more pics. And make sure you post pics if you get it with your daughter.

our tandem pics from last year ....... the kids will be trying some different things next week on the lake we will be at for next week ....
|
Those are great, I remember that big yellow board.
|
we are going to rollins lake the 6th to the 11th and dennis is letting me borrow it ...... the kids have been wanting to ride the board alot ...... laura used to ride it alone and she looked like a longboarder in the ocean by walking up and down the board as she rode it
|
we would use 2 ropes to get the kids started as they each held a rope
|
