so i'm sitting here thinking of alllll the $ i spend on wakeboarding (gas mainly), most of the time it's just to get out there to try and stick a new trick. which made me think, would i pay money to automatically be able to do a new trick?
you wouldn't even have to practice or go through the hard crashes....you are just all of a sudden money at it all the time.


any of you have a trick that your like, "man, i would totally throw down $300 to be able to automatically start landing TS 7's!"?

There would be no personal satisfaction in it for me. Never was one for something just being handed to me. It makes you soft IMO.

I dont ride for the glory of the tricks. Its more about the experience. Hanging out with friends, girls in bikini's, planning the trips, hunting for the butter, and getting to know the people in my wakeboarding community.

But on another note, I could give $46,000.00 for a double back roll and even leave my life jacket behind.

Anything not worked for will not be appreciated... So my answer is no. If you want to spend some money and learn some tricks, go take some lessons.

I think we'd all agree that trying to land that new trick is what gets me out on the water. If the money I paid for a new trick included automatic stress relief, smiles, and memories implanted in my brain, then I might think about it...but seeing as how that is a long ways off...I stick with spending my time and money and then never forgetting the 'day I landed that blah blah blah'.

i don't think i'd ever pay anything to be granted the ability to land anything either. although it woulda been much less painful when i was learning the HS FrontFlip!

"hunting for butter"...what kinda bait do you use?

You have to hit the marina's real early in the morning... find the fishing boats...steal as many drain plugs as you can find and poke holes in the rest!

How about pay to not take a certain fall. I fell last Friday on a 360 and I still have a bruise all the way from my elbow to my shoulder. I would pay $50 not to have taken that fall.

I'd pay for that damn s-bend that I've been trying FOREVER!

how much?

I'd pay 20 for switch and regular. That's the one trick that no matter how many times I try I can't land...it always turns into a laid out front. I don't know if I ever will land one, I have no choice!!! where do I send the money???

How much money would it take to eat dog poop (warm)?

depends on how much poo you're talking about.

I got a guy one time to eat a cockroach that he had just smashed for $50. We told him he had to chew it too. The cockroach was about 3 inches long. I don't think I have ever laughed so hard in my life.
