I thought the idea for the shot was a little cheesy, but I'm glad yall liked it
Steven M, I did a lot of research and calculating to find a good system of solar and wind power for energy on the ship, but it would've cost way too much and required more constant care than I could manage. Honestly, I only run the generator for an hour or so at a time and that's only when I've got people over.
95% of the time I'm on the houseboat, the generator isn't running. There's just so much better things to do out here and in the water to bother with electricity. For every 3.5 gallon tank in the generator, I get over 25 hours of power, so I've only filled the tank a couple of times since April when we filmed the show.
-LoGiK-, I don't know what it is about my front lips that look like front smiths, but this isn't the first time there's been confusion on it: http://www.wakeskating.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=29871
For the record, I've only seen a few smiths on wakeskates that I wouldn't turn my head away from (or nose-up at, if you think I'm snooty) and even the good ones are just pretend without a bar. If anyone doesn't know how a smith works on a skateboard, I'd suggest you look into it... anyways
Shred session on the front deck of the ship with the boys was sooooo sick.
So I just gotta say again how fun it was making this TV show and how happy it makes me to see all of you stoking out on it still... yeeewwww

nick, I was thinking more for the fridge and lights and night, not so much the tv, n64 and other electronics. But now that you explained it tis all good.
Sick houseboat too, love the clear floor so you can see under it.
And again that ledge hit is sick.

Does anybody know of any ways how to avoid this regional censorship? Or can I find the vid on some other video site?

Nick, to me this is a front smith without a bar. I have 4 clips of Andrew riding this out. Also there is one where his nose is almost touching the water but he comes off a little sketchy. Sorry to change topic on the AMI Pull thread. Just wanted everyone to see what Fortenberry was working with. Again this is NOT skateboarding.... a wakeskate will never have trucks wheels and bushings to look exactly like a skateboard.
2 cents anyone?

Ya Andrew those are looking dreamy!!
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
what about this one
I've never had the opportunity to try one with a bar and I want to bad
I think what Nick is talking about is when you do a smith/feeb grind on a skateboard you have to balance on your back truck and that can't be done with nubbys even if you can get it to to look like a smith
