cool, reminds me of what kiting was like when kiting started, anything goes as long as it is fun> Before pidgeonholing and 'gay labeling" if you're doing anything or on anything different

Lol @ the closeout at the end

Not a bad idea as long as you don't mind eating sand.

Inspired - We tried it yesterday behind a Honda CRV using some spare tow rope and a Snatch strap lol... I would say you need around 30-40m of line to make it work properly...

Still super fun though

We use two tow rope. any more then that, when you cut back in the slack falls in the water and gets caught. then you get snapped off your board when it releases.
I find it alot more fun when you take your fins off as well. because your always cutting you dont need them.
