What will the kids think to do next?

I guess they got a little bored today and decided to try something different. I must admit it did look pretty good. There is about 10' difference in the length of ropes.

Yep! 2004 Tige 22i Type-R With a little bit of help. A Pro X Series Side Sack in each rear compartment, and 2 Pro X Series Fat Bricks in the front isle and 3 people.

Bill, are you sure it was the jumper with the longer line? When my boys do that, the shorter line jumps over the longer line. Otherwise the jumper would be behind the other rider? We hook the jumper to the tower and the low man to the pylon... cool pic, love to see 'em having a blast!

Load the boat up like that again, and take a pic of a d-up!!!! That is one of the best wakes I've seen.

hmmm....am I missing something or did the photographer take that picture at the EXACT moment the two lines were crossing each other? why can't I see the jumper's line?

that is a nice wake though.....

Photo shopped right?

(eas) · (eas) **Join Date: Nov 2001** 07-23-2007, 7:22 AM

that's what my synicism was telling me......but didn't want to make the accusation too quickly.

Bill?

yeah where is the 2nd line at,could they be inline with each other,hard to tell

(billspin) · (billspin) **Join Date: Aug 2004** 07-23-2007, 8:04 AM

My wife was taking the pictures. How many would you like. It is with a 20D so I have many before and after. No Photoshop here just total luck. That is one reason I selected this photo as the one to post.

I'm calling that a real shot for sure. Blow it up and look at it, I'd be highly surprised if that was 'shopped. It's no great feat to have spectra line disappear behind another line...that shoestring lace is quite small. Great looking wake!

Ahh Bill beat me to it. Trust the guy, he's from Colorado, the best state I've lived in if you can don't count water options. Gotta give them the love for braving the crappy water they have to face on a weekly basis :-)

Guys I have about a hundred different shots of these two jumping and just generally screwing around. Believe me when I say it is real.

that wake is sicc

(eas) · (eas) **Join Date: Nov 2001** 07-23-2007, 8:55 AM

I believe you....I just thought it very odd that there wasn't a 2nd line to be seen.

Again....nice wake!

I know this looks cool and kids will be kids, but a warning on this stunt, you risk serious injury. this is a pic of two pro riders who were doing this all day with lots of room to spare, this time the wake washed out on take off and it was real close wreaking a good day. I don't recommend it. Upload

Hillard You can jump over me if you ride at 75ft and I ride at 55ft....

(wakeslife) · (wakeslife) **Join Date: Jul 2005** 07-23-2007, 9:54 PM

Yeah I would only do it if one line was a bit shorter than the other.
