Hey boys just wondering what it would be like charging a skate in the surf
has anyone on the site given it a blast could be worth while. i have tow in wakeboard and thought that was wicked. My opinion is apart from losing the board it would be like a skatepark heaps of trannys etc. what you guys rekon.

We've towed into some small stuff. It was cool you could either jump the wave or ride it. I bet if you charged some big stuff you could let go and ride, although a wakeskate fin is very short and might not be able to dig into the curl to hold you in the glide.

I'll try some when it gets warmer, where do you ride east coast rider?
I ride in Md, and we have a mini-cloudbreak here where you can ride waves a mile long(Bomborous). It only gets good a handfol of times per year. My brother just got a tow sled, he's pumped.
