Just kidding. I wanted to know about the new wakesurfers. I saw what looked like a miniture surfboard with two skags and no bindings on a wakeboard boat in Havasu a couple weeks ago and the dude said it was a wake surfer and easy to ride. I don't wakeboard anymore cause I have a knee that gets twisted up easy but without the bindings I think I would be ok. Does anyone know anything about these? Where to get them, how much, easy hard to ride?

looks like a good way to get a dose of carbon monoxide to me.

Slow, but another twist to behind the boat rec.
Seems the exhaust fumes would get to ya.
See it from time to time in Parker,,
Ocassionally theirs a Havasu guy who makes them outta wood & walks around the sand bars selling them for $75.

It looks like fun but I don't think it is going to work behind my boat. I may have to stick with the time tested sport of ass grabbing.

We do it all the time. Its an absolute must that you have a V-drive or Direct Drive boat for obvious reasons. You only run about 10 MPH and they are really easy to get up on. Slow and fun and you can go for miles. Once you get in a groove you can let go of the rope and just ride the wave. Its a really good time. We try to rotate often because of the carbon monoxide factor but we have never even had someone get light headed. I think since your standing its a non issue but we still like to be safe and not push it. Give it a try.
