LF TAA article.

I think it's cool that they're doing the whole spread the stoke thing this Summer, but pissing off fishermen and skiers is not a good move. There are fifty times the fishermen than the wakeboarders and they will always win.
It may be fun to swamp them and such, but take it from us So-Cal'ers. When you have lakes that only fishermen are allowed on, you begin to leave them alone a bit.

well if they are casting their lines at you wouldnt you get mad. What would you do if 2 boats stoped right in front of you and before that they went around and did donuts in the smooth water that you were just about to ride through.

I rode with the Liquid force pros on the trip across america and every fishermen we passed we waved to. None of the fishermen waved back. Kevin Henshaw said it best, "they must not like to wave around here"

I just read the article and in both cases (the waterskiers and fishermen) it was unintentional. Obviously Liquid Force isn't going to have people out on the Trip Across America intentionally causing problems. The whole purpose of the TAA is PR for LF and wakeboarding and intentionally pissing off other groups would defeat the purpose.
