I think I saw the best faceplant ever today during the season in wake highlights on Fuel TV's Daily Habit. Andrew Adkinson was participating in the Royer Rumble Double Up contest, which also was at night. He was just starting to go up the wake when it appeared that the nose of his board dug in making him faceplant. I wish I had a video of it because it was the best I've ever seen. He didn't look like he was the only person having troubles with the wake during the competition. It kinda looked like they had to hurry the process up a ton. Anyone else seen this or have a link to the video of it?

Watch at about the 2:35 mark. Fuel TV had a much better head on view of the fall and it looked way better.

In the old movie Shafted, Parks is coming in TS on a double up and somehow gets hung up, he faceplants right into the double up he was trying to hit and it just lights him up. It was awesome!!

No problem riding regular and switch, got outside both wakes as well.

at 2:45 Tony takes a pretty good slap. I also posted pics of my oldest son with 2 black eyes after taking a faceplant behind our Epic.

I have one of my brother in-law on my other computer I will have to get. Second time wakeboarding said he wanted to try a wake jump only he waited to long into the line. He cut into my turn but then squared up to the boat, when slack came out of the rope he shot across being slung by the boat like a rocket. When he came off the white wash on the outside the nose dug in and you could hear his face slap the water. It was great.

This one hurt. There was a miscommunication in which way to go while getting up on doubles and my buddy's board hit mine just right to where I smashed my face. I still laugh every time I watch it :-)
