Is Johnny pulling the Uncle Rico move with the biceps?

Alan, that is not the dolphin. Here are some stills to show the difference. When performing the dolphin you use the "slingshot" action of the boom bending when coming back to the surface of the water to accelerate FASTER than the boat.
Dolphin seen @ 1:20 in this video |

Are you pulling three from a tower or a pole?
I have the SS Fly Hy Pole but have always been hesitant to pull more than two deep ups at a time. Do you think pulling three large guys from the pole is safe? |

Shredhead, that's 3 from a tower on quinner's 206. It hasn't been a problem, solid and the boat still planes out just fine.
I'm not going to tell you what's safe and what's not, but we do triple deeps off a Fly High quite often. |

Been working on getting Harry doin' the barefoot thing. Same dude that came to GL this year. That Sanger is supposed to be there, he ain't no Wally!
Tumble ????s There we go, standing it up. Pulling a 1/2 "Johnny knee ski" No, this isn't a back deep attempt. This is a back deep. Finally got that extension on there and angled as far forward as I'm comfortable with. Out of the spray and getting up backwards along side the 2001! |

While we're sharing some good falls and the wonderful side spray of the 2001 hull ...
"Pay attention!" - Video BTW - we found on Brad's '86 SN that if we properly weight the opposite side (i.e. boom high) the side spray becomes no problem. We obviously figured this out after we shot the video above. -Keith |

Keith- After you left the other night, Tim had to sit up on the driver side gunnel to keep the spray from nailing me on the short line...He moved all the gear and the box of beer over to the driver side- it worked!
Maybe we'll mount the boom clamp with some forward angle and tighten up the cables a bit to keep out of the spray pattern. Better yet, we'll have to master that neat little swing out manuever -Brad |

That Harry sure has some Balls, maybe we could call him Harry B...., Oh wait, I already do.
Good to see Harry getting after it and no doubt he was a trooper holdin' on thru all those tunbles. |

Hey, would somebody please tell Harry to lead with his knees instead of the feet, he's right there! Johnny Looks comfortable though.
Great vids! Dan |

Nice call on the music- "For Whom the Bell Tolls" . I'll bring some Metallica out next time rather than the Swedish Rap, HW.

Some pretty nice night footing there. Looks like harry managed to work in a few tumble turns. He should've kept rockin the barb wire eagle suit...

Ran the 88 SN and T-bag's 98 Sanger DLX. <-- I love that wake
Tandem endurance races PLBC and Johnny lagging behind The Champs, 2/2 I'm not sure what it's called, but it's a tumble start out of combos. T-bag step attempt. This guy only likes doing deep waters. Next we were doing bomb-outs. Started with 100' lines, much too long too much stretch. Also, speeds were kind of slow but Johnny finally nailed one on his last try. Johnny and T-bag going down. |

That's a slow-no-wake buoy, but they're optional on our lake if you're in the PLBC

We're workin on it Joel...our buddy started re-doing the whole site and then just stopped. He's been really busy traveling to Europe and planning a wedding, so we're trying to get him to hand over the reins to one of us so we can get it up and running again.
