i was so psyched when i threw the tantrum down..i only wakeboard once a month or so..just to keep me fresh for the winter..snowboarding is where the money is at for me..no wakeboard comps. around here..and i dont have any sponsors, got a few on the snow tho.

I have alot more talent on a snowboard as well. Itook a trip to alaska lastwinter and had a blast. Also wen't out to stowe and jay peak in the Vermont/ New Hampshire area. I will for sure be going back to those places soon.This is a very good way to keep in shape and ready to go when the snow comes back. I will be atempting a tantrum this weekend if the weathers fine.

I went wakeboarding for the first time a few weeks ago when I was on vacation in cali. They were telling me not to worry about anything and to only concentrate on trying to get out of the water. I did it the first time and never failed. It really was a blast and I wish I had a boat I could go out on. I've been trying to get the video from my cousin but shes being lazy.

Sick *** trick, I could of done that though......hehehe, ya, riiight.

Not bad for your first try. The wreck on the 2nd vid looked like it hurt, but funny as hell tho. lol I landed a scarecrow, i believe its what its calld,this weekend instead of a tantrum. Its a backroll with a 180 thrown in it. Looks alittle diff from the first pic. You can see my body is starting to twist.
