Winch Spot Discovery In Backyard

Never thought of it before but today when getting ready for a session it hit me. Ive got a killer spot in my yard, pretty long and nice width. I was wondering what you guys thought.

Mr. Top Hat, Second choice after what?

Mr. Top Hat, you always put it perspective.

That's in FL right? I would clear all of those lilies out and give it a day or two. Water moccasins live in/near/around the base of lilies from what I've heard. Oh, did you know there's a Winch Spot forum?

Slyder, theres a local gas station with a toliet that would make the perfect hunting ground.

Anyone with a winch is welcome to stop by, I will gladly Guinea pig it. Its pretty much a non-stop session at my place.

I'm with Kyle and Top Hat on that one lol Smash

A winch is an engine hooked up to a spool with hundreds of feet on rope on it. It is used to get a pull on spots where you cant get a ski or a boat.

ripava82, oh yes, depends on the winch tho. But most will pull fast enough and some can even go over 50mph... so Very Happy

yeah but nobody has the gnads to do it, I want somebody to get it on film when it happens and well send it to alliance as the winch-skate-speed record lol

ripava82, yeah haha, but you probably dont want to go that fast Wink

check out http://www.alliancewake.com in the video section look for Omen, Sattelyte, Integrity, Pirate Winch session or something like that. You'll see some riders getting pulled by a Pirate Winch
