Here's a video featuring my mom and my daughter on Mother's Day. Stoke comes from all rider levels.

You go girls! Grandma has great form and looks so sharp crossing the wake - then she goes one handed! I can remember the rush of taking a hand off the handle. Lexie is too cute and what a grin! I bet she loves being out on the boat. Great video!

Thanks Liz. It was a stoke-filled morning. Lexie has been hitting the lake for dawn patrol since she was about 3, and never complains. It's really cool that she is ready to start riding and will finally get some of the benefit from being on the lake at 6am! I'm a proud papa!

My mom will be stoked about your comments. I'll pass them along. Thanks!

Grandma represents!!!!!!!!! Great video. Your ma has great style out there. It is also so cool to see the smile on Lexie's face no matter what happens in the water. She knows what it is all about. Good to see you getting out on the boat again. Can't wait to see Lexie up and catching big air. Post the vid next week.!

Tell Lex she is just as cute in person as she is in these videos and pictures!

Thanks for the nice comments everyone, I have passed them along to my mom and will share them with Lexie.

Stef, hopefully you will get more of a chance to hang with Lexie next time. She's an amazing little girl, if I do say so myself. Luckily she got all her mom's great qualities and none of my bad ones!

Wake addict, the boat is a Malibu Sunsetter LXi with about 1800 lbs plus wedge.

Wow you guys, thanks for adding to my stoke. Mother's Day couldn't have bee any better than spending it o the water with the family. It was great to be back out after a year ad some shoulder problems. Paul converted this former slolon skier and I will NEVER go back. Lexie did so well and it is great to have a three generation family of riders. Thanks again for the comments...now to gwt some air!!
