Fiest off thanks again Joe for the pulls and the great day. It was my first time in and behind a Pro V and I must say I was impressed.

I got a new camera so I am still learning how to use it. Big Ed seems to have it down check out the pics of me he got. Thanks Ed. Hey J-rod NO DRYSUIT hell I was just trunkin it and it was nice

Lucy is not able to ride until June but that didn't stop her from from getting wet. Your are a trooper in that tube.

Dood that outfit is Sweet!

Nice job Ant. Feels good to ride in shorts doesn't it?

Brandon It was cool to meet you and Chuck. Your Supra is sweet.

What's up Ant.... You the only one trunking it?

(antbug) · (antbug) **Join Date: Jul 2004** 03-28-2005, 1:15 PM

hell yeah it does. I did this huge melon 180 into the flats and when I got in the boat Big Ed said that it was the nicest 180 that I've done. He then said (which I took as a BIG complement) it looked like one of J-rods grabbed 180 and cause I was wearing shorts he almost thought it was you. Man did that make me feel good.

Hey Ant! I'm sure glad you got that third pic of me BEFORE I submarined

.....By the way I should have Fri 4/1 off, if you and Ed are interested.....

Thanks again for the great day!

evan ~ my 1st run I was wearing the monkey suit and I was sweating balls. My 2nd and 3rd were as you see.

walt 03-28-2005, 2:50 PM

Great pics Ant !

(jarrod) · (jarrod) **Join Date: May 2003** 03-28-2005, 3:02 PM

cool! I'll take that as a compliment too!

Congrats on the progression.

You should have seen Evan ride Saturday...toeside, heelside, frontside, backside...he was spinning every way possible.

(antbug) · (antbug) **Join Date: Jul 2004** 03-28-2005, 3:34 PM

Walt ~ Thanks. I still need to learn a few more things, but they are looking better.

J-rod ~ what do you mean. That's how I remember Evan.. toeside, heelside, frontside, backside... one of the smothest riders I've seen to date.

Joe ~ Even though I like my job... Work sucks when you get offers like that. I will keep you in mind, but I don't think I can get the time off.

You guys are making me blush, ha, ha... Ant, get up here. Let's ride. Hope you guys can make it out to Spring Ride, if not, the houseboat trip is going to be sa-ick. 2 Boats out there with NVS's, we'll probably get kicked off the lake.

Can't wait for summer.

(guido) · (guido) **Join Date: Jul 2002** 03-28-2005, 3:40 PM

By the way guys... The riding looks good. Ed's grabs are looking smooth. Looks like you guys are going big.

Or maybe It's my riding....Though I like to think you need to take better pics of me!

(bbr) · (bbr) **Join Date: Apr 2002** 03-28-2005, 9:13 PM

Yeah it was good to meet you boys too. Thanks for the pic of my boat, so far that is the only one that I have of it on the water. Let me know the next time you boys are up this way.

(big_ed_x2) · (big_ed_x2) **Join Date: Jul 2004** 03-28-2005, 11:05 PM

Brandon ~ Does that mean free lessons!?lol

Evan ~ Thanks I just feel like I need to be getting more air or Ant just needs to adjust the camera or something It seems like he is taking those pics standing on the tower.

As far as the drysuit,man it felt nice to be warm

Brandon,

How is the wake on the Supra? What would you compare it to (if that's possible)?

Whudup Big Shizzle???

You got your boat dialed in?

(bbr) · (bbr) **Join Date: Apr 2002** 03-29-2005, 8:59 AM

I love the wake, I would compare it to a Malibu, just a bit narrower. So I have to ride an extra 5 feet out. Still working on getting it dialed though, but you have the ability to change the shape of the wake with the wake plate. I love it. We'll have to get together soon and ride. The weekends down here are getting a little crowded. Gonna have to make some trips up north.

(antbug) · (antbug) **Join Date: Jul 2004** 03-29-2005, 9:37 AM

here are a few more. My new camera doesn't have the sequence setting, but it does take 4-5 pic per second.

(guido) · (guido) **Join Date: Jul 2002** 03-29-2005, 9:37 AM

Brandon... Bring that thing up to spring ride.

Big Ed--Glad you could make it out! You and Antbug are welcome out anytime...Thanks again

(antbug) · (antbug) **Join Date: Jul 2004** 03-29-2005, 9:47 AM

a few more good jumps

Brandon this was the other pic I took of your boat.

Walt ~ wow what a difference the PS Elements makes on the pics. Thanks for the heads up.

(jarrod) · (jarrod) **Join Date: May 2003** 03-29-2005, 9:48 AM

New spin out in the flats? That's a good warm up for a 3.

(antbug) · (antbug) **Join Date: Jul 2004** 03-29-2005, 9:56 AM

J-rod ~ after talking with Ed last night the comment about the 180 looking like yours wasn't true. I was in the monkey suit when I did the melon 180. He said (on my 2nd or 3rd set) cause I was wearing white shorts that he thought for a second it was you... oh well one can only dream.

(big_ed_x2) · (big_ed_x2) **Join Date: Jul 2004** 03-29-2005, 5:49 PM

J-Rod ~ Just talked to my dealer and getting it this saturday!

Ok I'm gonna regret this one just like I did the last comment....but I got to clear it up!
The 180 melon grab Antbug did DID look like one of J-Rod's though he was wearing the drysuit.The comment about him being in shorts and though it was J-Rod?

It seems like comments like that I need to keep to myself cause Ant Bug's head gets alittle too big!

(bbr) · (bbr) **Join Date: Apr 2002** 03-29-2005, 8:13 PM

DAYUM, I must say that my boat looks good on the water!! When is the Spring Ride exactly? I'll see if I might be able to make it. Anyone have the details??

(guido) · (guido) **Join Date: Jul 2002** 03-30-2005, 9:36 AM

Brandon... Check the thread in the events section.

(jarrod) · (jarrod) **Join Date: May 2003** 03-30-2005, 9:41 AM

Thanks for clearing that up!

Brandon. Good choice on the graphics. Your boat is f-ing SICK looking! I like.

All these BV pics are killing me, especially since it's the LoCal crew up there. Such a big kook, I haven't been out since January. Glad to see you guys are hitting it, and geez, are there always that many campers at BV this time of year?

clubjoeskier 03-30-2005, 1:02 PM

Easter Sunday/pyramid down/nice day at noon.....

It was heavier than usual, but peeps are creepin' in gradually over the last month.. It's still good in the morning if you want to get up for it...We just take the jetskis out, and when the water gets cruddy, we ride those till it mellows out again.

(antbug) · (antbug) **Join Date: Jul 2004** 03-30-2005, 1:26 PM

joe ~ nice profile pic

clubjoeskier 03-30-2005, 2:16 PM

Appreciate the pics too, Ant...too bad you missed those invert shots

.......

Lucy and I are lookin' forward to getting out there with you and Big Ed again.....

(big_ed_x2) · (big_ed_x2) **Join Date: Jul 2004** 03-30-2005, 5:46 PM

Since I'm a funny guy I guess I won't bother next time!

(bbr) · (bbr) **Join Date: Apr 2002** 03-31-2005, 6:42 AM

Just looked in the events section and I won't be able to attend in April. That is the last day of the month in the office, and that would be suicide if I wasn't there. There will be many other weekends however, as I am planning on hitting lots of different lakes up north this summer.
