A. Not exactly sure why someone would torment an animal like that.
B. Nice gloves

Ya, that was cool when I was like 8. Looks like he wouldn't have been able to clear if the bird didn't duck

change you profile to match (clearintheswan). oh, and you may get your desired response on the other site. wakeboardingmag.com or something like that. i'm sure you can figure it out. you should have just reached down and picked it up. you have your gloves on

Would've been a lot cooler looking in full color. Then we all could confirm just how lame your board, boots and GLOVE combination is.

Or maybe, "the swan was a consenting party here." Hate to pile on, well no I don't, but if your screen name is "clearinthewake" and you brag about, you might think this a cool "trick".

Dave should consider deleting this thread.
It would be a shame if PETA put wakeboarding on their HATE list.

I could see PETA or an ECOFRAUD group using that photo in presentations against lawful water use.
It would be a shame to fuel their fire.

Dude, you do not want to mess with a white swan when they are near their nest. Swans can get mighty angry and will actually attack you with their 10 foot wingspan if you do dumb things like chase after them on a wakeboard. I suppose you get what you deserve, but just a heads up that swans will attack if provoked.

PETA is for quacks. Maybe the photo would've been better if he ollied over a PETA member?

oh no that poor swan, boo freakin hoo.. Looks to me that the swan was unharmed in the stunt. I had a goose fly straight into the bow of my boat and then go under for a complete prop dusting. I did not sit there and cry about it. My rider just ollied over the rubbish in the propwash and we went on with our day. Poured out a bit of a 40 for our fallen hommie and then switched riders.
