Well I was just having a discussion about wakeboarding and the pain involved in learning this wonderful sport. We decided that all newbs need to get properly Edge-ucated by getting rookie at least a handful of times, before you progress. Helps build charater! I was originally going to have people post up there best face plants but lets see all your best crashes. We havent had a good crash thread in a while, so lets see what you got wakeworld. Nothing says wakeboarding like a good solid edge catch! I would post some of my own but I will let Ryan Taylor aka Photo Ryan post them up.

Pros get it too! In all fairness this was the tail end of a double back roll to blind attempt.

HAHA! Like I said it was a double to blind attempt, WHEN he lands that trick it will get trick of the year! He was sooo close he would either rotate and pop the handle or have the handle and not get the blind rotation all the way. It was sick for sure!

Here's my wife on about her 3rd time riding -- we made the mistake of taking her out in a Malibu VLX after she had spent a week riding behind my dad's unweighted bass boat...a little too aggressive into the wake :-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RuSBBAMPQxI

Callen that was spring last year Troy got fully owned by that rail, I thought we were taking him to the hospital for sure. Ryan that 5th one down in your first post made me cringe! The ramp was two different sequences from different angles. I wish I had the Ninja skills like that.

PS: 1-My first ride, on the bar, trying to pull the boat backwards 2-My buddy riding a table (as you do) 3-Unsavable invert 4 - Me again, the old 'ol le' move 5 + 6 - My buddy and his girlfriend, with very similar 'jetty starts'! Oh yeah, and I rookied myself on a powerslide in Sept, caught a back edge out on the whip, which ended my season with torn ligaments in my foot. Still hurts now! Bring on the new season and my new LF witness... (Message edited by wideboy on February 20, 2009) (Message edited by wideboy on February 20, 2009)
