I was out snapping some pics of my good friend Marks nwe Crusader and I told him to give it a little leap. Just wondering if anyone else can top this? If so post the pix to prove it

Yep, i'll back you up on Mike (Rivertard) he can wheelie with the best, if not the best. :)

I am gonna jump in and say that Rivertards "wheelie" is just that, a wheelie. The pic above is a jump or a leap. Reminds me of bunny hopping the old 440 stand ups.

We've got a maniac up here on our river that does that all day, just never caught him on film. The boat actually leaves the water, drags the pump like an anchor and then drops back down. Looks like the boat should break in half every time he does it. :skull:

Yeah, but how about Rivertard? He hangs his bow up high all the way down the river.
I have an mpeg wheelie somewhere out in cyberspace and will post it when I find it. Here are some pics that are much like the others; kinda hard to catch the boat at it's peak.

I don't do this so much anymore; the boat in its current tune goes straight up and I don't want to risk losing it (dropping straight into the water when I lift throttle).

Hoping to have my boat together by the end of th month or so, just wondering about these pics of the "wheelies." Do you just hammer it with the diverter all the way up? How bad is it for the boat?

I'm kind of partial to (rivertard). He's kind of like Ron Jermey. Not only is it amazing that he get's it up (especially at his age) that high , but that he keeps it up that high ! His boat of course :D

I know some guy that does fiberglass and gell work. His neck is red and he smells like shine, but don't let that scare you off...cause he does do good work.
Jungleboy is good with his beer can. Nothing a mallet won't take out.

Haha totally forgot about that one Bottom which is odd since I was in that race lol Whats scary is that boat was probably 10-15 degree's PAST vertical before it came back down. I have the video from shore, unreal. I betcha Jesse's not about to do that one again lol
Awesome pics tho
Cheers

Here is one of many pics of rivertard. Now remember he rides these things out for a 100 yards or so.
