 |
|
There is a road by my house that is submerged in rain water. The water depth ranges from about 6-12 inches with deep spots at about 2 feet on the shoulder. One lane is clear of water, so my buddy would drive his truck with me behind it wakeskating. We wanted to hit it tonight.
Would it work?
Has anyone ever tried this before?
Thanks for the help guys!

electricsnow, Or is the lesson not to go in after your friend who got sucked into a culvert, but swam all the way out the other side?

That's the beauty of this example...so many lessons can be had. How about this: "team, let's just be safe out there."
