Dude that is some sick riding, wake doesn't look that small but it definitely ain't large.

nice riding bro, and by the way what kind of life jacket is that its fresh as hell

that is a helium life vest brian

Is anyone else having trouble loading the video? Firefox just freezes.

I was too, but I just started clicking spastically and it started playing.

i do but i try to make the best out of it

It just goes to show that you don't need a huge wake to be good. I was sucked in to all the hype of extra ballast and bla bla bla. Now I just use stock ballast and or wedge and the wake is fine...

I learned almost everything I can do behind a 89 prostar 190 with a pretty damn small wake. Bigger wakes just make it WAY more fun. Still very impressive man!

great video, I enjoyed watching it.

great riding! Props to anyone that can do it on a small wake.

Awesome riding behind that outboard (or any boat for that matter), but doublely for an outboard. Surprised that they allow a wake in that location. Nobody gives you grief for that?

^^^^^Didn't look like you were making too much wake to me. <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/wink.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>Glides, ralley, whirley were killer!

thanks a lot guys. the location is fort lauderdale florida and as long as your boat is under 21' you can wakeboard or ski without grief!

yo thanks man

Wicked!

im thinking about getting some ballast for the boat but i doubt it will help that much. anyone ever put weight in an outboard?

great riding! great editing! you need to find someone who knows how to shoot. i know how that goes man!

I've seen plenty of outboard boats with weight in them, should work about the same as any boat more weight, bigger wake... <BR> <BR>We never put any ballast in our old boat because once you got 6 people plus all the gear on board there wasn't room for anything else.

That was some sick riding!

hell yeah I ride all the time behind a small wake! the boat in my profile pic is the one we ride behind all the time.

that wake isnt that small. it just looks smaller than normal cuz its salt water. I guarantee its super hard.

Back in the day we used to ride behind my buddies fishing boat. I think it was around 25' but we would just fill the live wells and shred. The wake always had a white wash lip on it and was small but it was poppy. I could do all of my tricks on it. It just took a little more energy and a lot harder edge. Really good for technique actually because you really have to learn how to wait for your pop.

i live on a private lake that only allows boats that are 20' 6'' long or shorter on it...along with no wake enhancements...i own a 1986 malibu skier...and so does the local pro, he can throw raleys all day, tons of mobes like moby dicks, tootsie rolls, he can spin 5's i think he even hit a seven once. And to top it all off it was behind an unwieghted 1986 malibu skier,

pretty sweet vid

Not sure if anyone has ever seen this one before... old school footage of a 21 y/o Scott Byerly riding behind an outboard fish n ski. <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.wakeboardreport.com/archives/2008/02/exclusive_footage_of_a_young_s.html" target="_blank">http://www.wakeboardreport.com/archives/2008/02/exclusive_footage_of_a_young_s.html</a> <BR> <BR>Scroll down to see the vid.
