Its been a week and half now, so I figured I'd better get some pics up! Two Fridays ago, we stole a day from mother nature- the forecast called for an 80% chance of rain, but the skies stayed clear. Hollywood was in town on business and Brad (Barracuda) made the trip down from MA. We burned more gas in the '90 in one day than I have so far this year... awesome.

We did some frontwards stuff...





...and some backwards stuff...







...and some upside down stuff...



...some flyers...



...triples...



...and even had some lovely ladies to share the day with.



Thanks for coming out guys, we had a blast! I sure have met some great friends through CCF- thanks Keith.

Nice pics!

You guys sure are hardcore with all of that cold weather gear...either that or some of us are pansies.

Water temp here is now in the low 80's and the general temp is the mid 90's.

Tim which lake is that again? Nice man, We have been busy with Family stuff as my last grandfather passed away on the 10th of June at 101.5 yrs old that weekend was shot and last weekend all the rain we've had water levels are high and debris probably everywhere.
I hope to make it out on Lake Zoar Sunday I do have a pic from I think Memorial Day weekend was last time I have footed I think.

Tim- Thanks for having me for the day. You sure have a nice place there and the 90 ran great!
I had a great time as the 5th wheel for the day- hahaha
I finally got to meet Hollywood and the lovely Carolyn.
Quinner even joined us on a late night phone call Thursday night.
Good friends and good times- absolutely!
Sure was nice to hang out with you guys and spend the day on the water.

Great pics! Melissa sure is good with that camera! She even caught Hollywood in mid flip We sure didn't see that flip coming and it was a highlight of the day!

I feel we should add the disclaimer that no geese were actually harmed that day..hahaha

Bruce- It's a great hat, but I was just borrowing it.Maybe someday I'll get my own

Greg, its been a cold spring here in the northeast- lots of rain and not much sun... air temps were around 70 that day, water temp was mid to high 60's. Our lake is shallow and will get to 80 in August if the sun will finally come out! For now the wetsuit tops take a little bit of the chill off.

Phil, looking good! Im up on Tyler.

Keith, would have been fun if you could make it. Wish I could have spread the word more and had more of the northeast guys come- this sort of came together at the last minute.

Bruce, it is a good looking hat, isnt it? I think Brad was hoping to steal it from me...

Tim great pics you blokes make it look easy. Water temps look a bit cool. How is the water temp at GL warmer than that I hope.

Kapla -3 C is cold you are down under like us in winter. Your barefooting exploits have encouraged me to give it a go next season. I like to wakeboard but my old knees are becoming a problem I was hoping barefooting will be easier on them.

If you're going through hell, keep going

Great pictures Tim!

It is always great to see folks from the site get together out on the water.

Looking good, gentlemen! Brad, wow, you've advanced big time. One foot, backwards, what's next?

I'm getting closer to making a full pass on the course. The INT is Sunday, so we'll see what I can do.
