And when you they ask you a question about it and they call it wakeboarding.

Things like this drive me insane for some reason.

JimTheArchangel, Perhaps in the distant future, but as of now, no. Sad

cassette315, I am used to people not counting skateboarding as a sport, so i just say baseball, football, soccer, etc. are not sports...

i always just say that Wakeskating is alot gayer and not as fun as wakeboarding. I alsow explain to them that wakeskating is HUGE in the Homosexual Community.
