so today we went to the lake to wakeboard a lil bit. as we were getting ready to start riding a boat went by with a guy wakeboarding... no big deal right??? except we get around the corner they arent riding anymore. they begin to tube through the smoothest water on the lake. cut in front of us and circle and plow... having a merry old time. i dont understand.... they couldnt go to the open bay where it is a lil more choppy?

that sucks dude, i feel you. <BR>i saw your home lake is pedro. was this where its at? <BR> <BR>because pedro is pretty much always flat, its not hard at all to find glass. i wouldnt worry about it if it was there

its hit and miss man. theres certain spots that are good but the wind is pretty bad sometimes. mcclure is better. just ridiculous that on a huge lake they tube in the flattest water. The guy that rode was doing tantrums and crows... you would think they would have a little courtesy not to cut us off.

where do you ride at pedro? at moccasin we have had nothing but ggood water. we dont go there offten, we are going saturday actually, and we have great water there, its easy to find. but i feel you. if your able to do tantrums and crows, you wouldnt even own a tube. <BR> <BR>Not going to lie though, i tube every great while, you get some really funny looks when you go W2W on a tube. and if no one is around. hitting 45 on one is entertaining. but would never take good water if people where around

Yeah, tubers suck. I hate them, you hate them. It takes no skill and any idiot with a boat. There is NOTHING we can do about it. It's like jetskis. The kind of people that are tubing will never read this our any other watersports board, so I don't bitch about it much. You will never educate that guy, they boat 5 times a year. <BR> <BR>Focus on the guys running 3K ballast with beginners and pulling powerturns, or wakesurfers. Atleast those guys might be hear and listen.

Tubers are relentless, we went to a lake in the middle of no where and we were the only boat out there then when i got in the water out of no where tubers coming zig zaging through the line.
