Tow At !!

HA HA HA, sorry! Good luck though!

 

Ok here is what you do. First you are going to want to spray paint the entire craft "Guard Orange", It's a law or something like that. Next, you need one of those foamy floaty things to tow behind it so you can catch a ride without sticking your d*ck in a waterjet. Once you have all of that figured out, make yourself a vest out of raw steaks and old rotten fish (though you have already chummed the area, right?)

Practice driving the ski in a really crowded area like first street, or a swimming pool. Dodging those people will hone your skills.

Now for wave selection, definitely somewhere crowded. I mean, you want to be seen.

Board selection is critical. Don't get ahead of yourself. I'd first try it on a longboard, I mean, everything starts on a longboard, right?

Before you are ready to charge, you and your tow driver need to practice the trust rituals of beer bonging a case of redbull together and throw the cans right into the line-up.

Now go run over some kids and get some!!!!

 

Why? Did your arms fall off?

 

Step 1) Watch a surf video of guys getting barrels and punting with out a jet ski.
Step 2) Get frustrated because you cant punt airs or get good barrels.
Step 3) Think real hard about how you can do what they do (but not the hard way like practice or moving somewhere with better waves) you want this to be as easy as possible.
Step 4) Buy a Jet Ski because clearly you could do everything a pro could do if you were going fast enough.
Step 5) Crash that jet ski into the sandbar the first time out or maybe run someone over trying to whip your bro into a 2 ft closeout.
Step 6) You get black balled from surfing around where you live because everyone hates you.

 

nailed it.

This guy did it with out legs...

 

I never thought the day would come that I agree with anything IWBTY says. Yet, here it is!

 

Why so much hate for tow-in surfing? I think it looks like fun.
Anyone complaining about crowds has obviously not been out this winter

 

It was the comment about small waves that made this thread smell like kook.

 

he's not talking about tow in surfing, he's talking about tow AT surfing. wildly different things. tow in surfing is for big (25ft +) or gnarly (think chopes during the code red swell). tow at surfing is a bunch of douchey technophiles f*cking around in small/tiny surf being obnoxious & making a lot of noise.

 

LOL! I like that description.

 

Unless of course, the OP doesn't have arms. Then it's a glorious story of determination and drive amid adversity.

 

touche. i did not think of that. how callous of me.

 

Then how the hell does he hold on to the rope?

 

Never mind, that must the the adversity part

 

Small waves like 3 feet would look pretty dumb, but what about something like this? Not 25 feet but still looking like a lot of fun.

But hey if someone offered to tow me into anything I probably wouldn't turn down the opportunity.

 

no reason to tow that. it's barely head high. it's just pure laziness/greed that leads people to think that doing s#1t like that is ok/a good idea.
