Well im a big water sports fan, mainly wakeboarding although i do enjoy majority of water sports, including: Jet-sking, wakeskating, wakeboarding and knee boarding.



Here's a picture of my wakeboard:

Unfortunately i don't have any of me actually wakeboarding, because i mainly wakeboard behind the ski which makes it hard to get clear pictures

You have little feet.

Ive never tried it out.. Looks fun though.
 
Nah the shoes are actually bigger then they look, they just have to be as tight as possible

It is fun, and despite what people say, it is hard but once you get the hang of it, you'll love it.
 
Somewhat, it's probably the same amount of skill required although to get up it might be harder.
 
Well your feet are pretty much glued to the board so wouldnt surfing be harder?
 
Not really, personally i think it actually makes it harder when it's glued down as you don't have the freedom to wiggle your toes

+ You have to hold on to the rope properly, it's not all about just holding on

Oh theres a rope?

I thought it was like riding waves..



Ive gone tubing before.. a big innertube was tied to my uncles speed boat, and one time he was going super fast and I lost my shorts while I was half way hanging on to the tube.. My arms were holding on and the rest of me was in the water. Anyways, he didnt have any towels or anything on the boat so I had to ride back to his house (he lived on the lake at the time) and walk down the docks, up the hill back to his house totally naked... Was EXTREMELY embarrassing. They still talk about it to this day.

Well tubing is sort of like wake boarding.. Both are involve ropes.

Yet their so totally different, tubing is sitting down, while wakeboarding is standing up
