after doing a trick, especially 3 shuvs or bigspins, ill fall back sometimes and be riding, practially laying down for like 20 seconds before being able to get back up.
one time i went for a shuv on, but i fell back, and realized taht i was sitting on the board, still riding.

my friend tony berard can fall down and lay on his back with the board on one foot way behind him and ride like that for like 5min. and still pull himself up, its crazy...
watch at the end of this video, he does a frontside 360 shuvit and lands like that, he didnt ride away from that one but he usualy does.

thats chip, he owns the skate/wake shop i ride for down here in LA. hes a super sick wakeboarder and he tore his ACL so hes out for like a year and a half so he just films his riders now untill it heals.

That's a sick video. I love it how you're riding behind an outboard for much of the time, and still riding better than 99% of the kids with $50k boats.

thanks guys, actually all i own is a 1988 skeeter 16 ft bass boat with a 90 horse power motor that EATS gas and barely runs. and i finnaly got a pylon for it this week!! its my "super air skeeter" and yea the only reason i was riding behind that x-star was for filming a video, anytime i get to ride behind a nice boat like that, its such a treat, so for the kids with the 50k boats, be thankfull!!
