How many days have you gotten this season?

I'm sure most people aren't as obsesive as me and actually count the number of days they've wakeboarded, but I wanted to see how many days I could get so I've kept a running tally this season. My goal was to get 75 days this season (beginning of March to what will probably be the beginning of November), today will be day number 80! Anyone think they got more than that? I know many of you live in warmer climates and have longer seasons and some people are just hardcore and go year round, so some of you gotta have more days than that...

Oh wow, I don't know. Back this summer I got to ride atleast 4 days a week. This is my first year though, and for the longest time we did it all wrong. Next summer will be amazing.

I definitely didn't count the days. I can tell you this though. I bought my boat June of 2004 with 150 hours. "Big Blue" now has 626 hours to date and I plan on adding more tomorrow afternoon. I don't know where you live, but here in texas we are still riding in skins.

Big whopping 0.
Had my ACL reconstructed in April

Getting back to wakeboarding just isn't a priority in my life. Even though I've discovered 5 more people who own boats and have offered to take me out, I've got other things in my life that are more important.
The funny thing is that I live where I can wakeboard year round too.

phantom, i hope i never get that seperated from something I love.

over a hundred days easily for me, even with missing almost two months to a broken rib.

I think I rode a minimum of 60 days but thats probably a conservative number.

During the winter I try to get out once a week weather permitting.

I rode ten days straight on my vacation alone and then every Fri, Sat, and Sunday (2sets Friday...4 on Sat...2on Sun) through the summer with the exception of one week that I went to the Delta and rode.

I'm going to try and keep track this following year and see how many times and sets.

All that riding and I still SUCK !

Derek,

Man! That's a lousy ratio

Gotta hurt! You really need to get out more (j/k) I have trouble making payments when I don't get out every chance I get. I am sure you have reasons. I guess I am lucky I am in So Cal, and still no wetsuit. Getting ready to start wussin' out soon. Temp's dropping.

This season...let's see. Bought the Bu in Feb 05, 270 hours later, and average of 1-2 days(closer to 2) per week. This is, I believe , the first week I have not taken the boat out Going to the desert with the kid and some others tomorrow. Man, getting the DT's already

At least I will save a little gas money!

I would say maybe 20 being low and 35 being high. Pulled the boat a month ago and wont go back in untill spring

It will be snowing in NE ohio before long

I don't count the days I ride, I count the months until I can ride again! When I get closer to May I start counting the days.

Started on April 15th. I am at 99. Would like to get to 100. It is getting cold. Not bad for Michigan.

Buzz, there's no 'j/k' about it. Nice BU, by the way!

Time on the water is precious but at the same time, so are a lot of the other things our family does. I guess that makes us wayyyyy 'recreational'. It's all good, though, kids are still young. By the time they're REALLY ready to ride, my back will probably be shot anyway :-)

brent661 10-21-2005, 7:15 PM

ive logged exactly 38 whole days and 57 halfs and considering im in southern florida theres a good month left of wakeboarding before its gets 2 cold so i should have 15 more by the end of the year. 16 more if i get my new bindings for christmas

(malibuboarder75)

Well we put like 250hrs on the boat this summer. We rode about 3-4 times a week between the months of june-august. Riding from about 4-8pm. Good summer, to bad I had to start college.
