Hey Gumby... just kidding of course on that last post. But since we've resurrected this topic.... I have found that the older I get the more selective I become about which waves I'll go for. I'm definitely not risking some of the hits (aka wipeouts) I used to not care about. Also find lap swimming a...

Sparrow Videos

1) Is there a place/person in the U.S. from whom I can order a Sparrow video? 2) I've had my k~board in the water a few times each year for the past three years and have ended up putting it away due to beginner's frustration :oops: . My passion has been waveski surfing for the last 10 or so years, ...

chadsdad... If you don't find big enough fin socks/booties, and your fins are still hurting your feet... you might want to give Force Fin Pro's a look... they are available in larger sizes than most fins, have an open toe, and can be padded with a felt insert for added comfort.

Sure wish there was a dedicated "how to" place on the KSUSA site where people new to the sport could go to see/read how to execute the basics (and beyond). WAVEMASTERUSA has an excellent place on their site called RIPPS WAVESKI SAVVY that gives an animated description of basic through adv...
