Well we are getting out pond deepend, and it got me thinking, why not try wakeboarding on it. So I thought about some more, I would build a small dock to sit on, then tie my rope to the back of a quad. Then just get pulled along. I would toss in a slider and call it good. My pond is about 150 yards long. Any forseeable problems, or any ideas to make it go smoother would be appriciated.

sounds like a good idea to me. I'd do it if I had a pond

sh*t Ive seen guys just go in the ditches on the side of the road, being pulled behind a truck. Your idea seems a lot safer and better.

There's some footage at the end of this video I made a few years ago that you should see. I straped a skylon to a four wheeler to board in my pond. The whole video is crashes then closer to the end is this footage. <BR>Actually the first time two of my daughters got up boarding was behind the lawn tractor in my pond! <BR><a href="http://www.wakepics.com/view_single.php?medid=7149" target="_blank">http://www.wakepics.com/view_single.php?medid=7149</a>
