i basically say exactly what you said joey, either "skateboarding on water" or "wakeboarding with no bindings" it generally gets the point across

I normally start with asking them if they've heard of wakeboarding.... which I really need to stop doing. Then I'll go to the skateboarding on water, pulled by something explaination.
If that fails I'll show them Subvert... but normally point them there anyway.... Yes, I plug for myself LOL.
