I thought I would start a new thread for those of us who appreciate a good faceplant. Of course there are few better wipeouts than occur while barefoot waterskiing due to the speed and lack of slats on the feet. I have shot miles of video on my barefoot journey the last year and a hlaf, and have posted some cool video.

Here's the one you have been waiting for. Enjoy!

This is great stuff. Check out "Fred Wingate Crashes" on youtube. Also rather entertaining. Fred is always ready to provide some quality ski/footing entertainment. Notice the old school Nautique in the videos

I was surprised at how many falls I (we) took. Andy on the front to back and back wakes, me on the toe-hold and front wakes. I still have more, I was only thru the Mid Winter footage when I ran the video.

Surprised I (we) survived that stuff and still wanted to do it the next time!

Roy I am not sure if I needed to see that. Although it is always funny when it is not your face.

Me too, Kapla, those are a scream. It is like "hey, look at me, I am cool" then....WHAM! About 20 seconds into the video my friend Dave hits his first one-foot, smiles a weak smile, then gets slammed. I remember that day, and we were all laughing so hard in the boat!

This is so much cooler when you are watching someone else do it.
