Nothing more destructive to shorelines and property than a wakeboat. Further proof he is an *******.

I am a professional in the field. Anybody who disagrees with me is ignorant of the issue at hand.

Will one of you skiers help me out and tell me how people do that right behind the boat? is the wakeboard tied to anything.

It’s wake surfing. The boats have bags that fill with water and sinks the back of the boat, which creates a big wave. As long as you’re in front of the wave, you’ll stay up without the rope. The boat is only moving at about 10 or 12 MPH. It’s pretty easy to do and a lot of fun too.

You get up and start riding the board using a ski rope. Find the sweet spot in the wake and let go of the rope.
Like this gif expect not using a table to surf or you will poke your eye out

Nope, we have a "professional in the field" that has expressed their "professional" opinion and you obviously are incorrect**

I’d love to hear how it’s not storms, natural erosion, or fluctuating lake levels, but wake surfing that is the imminent threat to shorelines

It accelerates shore erosion beyond what naturally occurs, and often faster than deposition can replenish. It causes excess turbidity and higher levels of suspended solids, choking out vegetation, which further destabilizes the shorelines.

I’m certainly not an expert and had never even heard this argument until you brought it up. Google leads me to believe this is an actual problem at some places. But I just have to believe it has to be a pretty shallow and narrow lake to lake to cause any issues.

Somewhere like the Rez, I can’t imagine surfing or wake boarding causes any issues.

So, by your logic, barge tugs have been destroying the Tenn-Tom shore for decades, and thus, all ********.

If you really passed the PE like you say, that's scary

I mean, I think so? I think that's one of the reasons the corps spends a **** ton of money on anti-erosion and bank stabilization efforts.

Yeah I mean the guy (Mobile) isn't wrong. Water is powerful.

I personally think we have a lot of overly sensitive bitches on these forums nowadays. They didn't get the joke regarding Mullen being an *******. Then Mobile gets pissy and flexes his professionality, then T-Town, one of the bigger bitches of all time, starts questioning his PE over something that clearly happens, then misses the ******* joke again. I mean someone actually downvoted my question about wakeboarding, hahaha (probably my serial downvoter).

Douchebaggery all the way around. And we just won a natty.
