Loved the Bad Boys Series videos. Very cool. I had a question about your rope length though. How far back are you? From the camera angle, it looks like you guys are right behind the rooster tail.

Must be nice to ride with a bigger crew. It's just me, my wife, and another couple. Still fun though.

Eric, I'm sure Stef will be around shortly and can back me up on this....Anywhere from 65' to 80' (maybe Peter at 85'??) - depends on who's back there and what they're working on.

I keep forgetting to add my email address to my profile. I will do this now:-)

Susies got my back! Thanks Susie!

Eric, thanks for the compliment. Glad you liked the videos. I'm having fun making them. We ride exactly as Susie stated. Some of us are riding at 65 feet and some as far back as 85. In this case, most of the riders were farther back while wakeboarding. I think that most of them were riding at 75 feet.

The rooster tail is big, but not near as big as some of the other boats out there. It could have been where I was filming from that made it look larger than it really is.

Thanks again for the compliment. It's nice to know that people are enjoying the videos!

Eric, I used to have a 93 Open Bow Ski Nauty. It had a great wake, when heavely loaded. If you ever have any questions about the boat, I might be able to help :-)

Thanks Stefani and Susie, I appreciate your feedback. We have been riding 55'-65' unweighted. The wake really starts to spread out beyond that..darn ski boat. We just started making it w2w this year after starting late last year. I have a fat sack but we have yet to use it either. Seems like I ought to be good at going w2w and 180's before creating bigger wakes. Perhaps we'll shoot some video and try our hand at making a movie. I'm thinking set to U2 elevation...lots of big air and floaty grabs and such.

Have a good one.

Eric
