we did the thing with the rider pulling the tuber to one side of the wake. it works well but we still got a lot of spray from the boat. I have a super wide angle lense right from sony and I was less than 5' from the rider. Behind the rider gives the rider a chance to bail on the rope. Not so bad for the rider, but the guy on the tube better hold onto the camera. I used a oversize ziplock bag for the camera. cut a 3/4 hole in the bottom and stretched it around the front lense. zipped the end shut and it worked perfect. kept a towel on the tube to wipe the lense off. got some footage, but not as good as i was hoping. I was hoping for maybe better tube ideas or what everyone else uses. later, sturdy
