my most recent pay check put me at about a grand and im asking every

one for some spending advice, im thinkin' either a tower, or fat sacs/

other similar products, or a cheaper tower and fat sacks, or the less

desirable option of doing what i did with the last chunk of cash i had and

continue to pay back my parents.

thanks all ( P.S. what do you think is more benificial towers or ballasts,)

Spend half, pay parents back with other half, and then try to find a tower.

neither of these are necessary in wakeskating. Give your parents some money(they'll appreciate some responsibility)

pay back the rents....i just gave my dad the 2K i owed him and it feels real damn good to know that you dont owe anything to anyone.

and tower/ballast is def. not necessary for skatin. if you have any left over and you're still jonesin to spend it.... go to your local home depot/lowes/whatever and get some rail supplies.

incline, flatbar, box, gap.....just have fun with it.

Buy mass quantities of drugs and do them for a week until you have life changing visions. I'm surprised nobody has suggested this method.

what kind of boat? do yo have a pylon extention? if not you can get one for a couple hundred, save some money and give some to your parents. If you need a fat sac just get an old waterbed at a garage sale and an aerator pump for the boat store and you're set/

Buy a llama and ride it to South America. From there you should be able to find some cheap flip flops and a blanket for a decent price. With the money left over buy yourself a couple of cheeseburgers.

Jimbob
....hahahah Great!

Go on a trip. TRAVEL!!! When I was young and had some extra clams in my pocket, I did a summer snowboard camp at Mt.Hood. That was back in '94. I got to meet a sha-it load of my heroes and get good. I learned a bunch of new tricks. As Jimbob recommended, I was also able to go up to Whistler for some more sumer riding and got drunk, stizzled and banged dirty French chicks. I look back on that trip fondly and as money well spent.

I convinced my folks to let me go by saying that I was going to also visit the Campuses of UBC in Vancouver. They wanted me to go to University when I was young.
