Quick video of my 7 year old on her 6th day of riding (1 to 2 sets per day). Watch out Amber Wing. I think she will be coming to knock you off of the top.

P.S. - The kid rides for 20+ minutes without falling. I normally have to stop and bring her in so everyone else can have a turn.

I started pulling her at 8-9mph. She quickly decided that she was going to slow. I started bumping her up slowly. In that video I think I was pulling her at 14-15mph. Went out yesterday and had her at 17mph. Still had her on a long line to give her room. I think she is ready for me to pull her in and start working with the wake some.

Robert - Ally told me that she didn't want you to see her ride until she could land her jumps. That kids head is always two sets ahead.

Yea, she will probably be showing me up by the end of the summer. As far as the inverts, I will post that video this time next year. That one will be named 8 year old Shredder. Seriously I am an extremely proud papa of both of my girls. They both are doing extremely well. I'm glad that I found something that we can do as a family that everyone enjoys. The memories that my kids are getting now will last them a lifetime. I hope that they grow up to pass the joys they are experiencing on to their future families.

This is my 4 year old's first day http://youtu.be/zA3sl5HlJ5o,
she's really improved she can get behind the boat and is starting to work on controlled edging. My 4 year old really loves surfing I haven't seen any other kid her age surfing independently http://youtu.be/-ITZUvYssHo I hope by next Summer they will be better than me, which won't be hard (LOL).
