I was throttling the Skater in the run. The Fountain may have been close that was near the start. we got to the first card stop and waited 5 minutes then the 42 & 35 came rolling in. Then we all took off for the lunch stop. The 3 of us kind of stayed together for safety reasons, we all took many over the bow. we were the only ones to make it there.

^ This. Loved the video, and the captured still shots and slo-motions were a very nice touch! As always, great job Tim!

I have never seen LOTO that rough! There are big boat wakes/rollers, but....it is a skinny lake that doeen't get the wind produced waves. JMO.

Great video Tim and thank you for sharing.
I would have paid big bucks to drive the Skater! It looked like fun!

What size Skater is that? What speeds were you running? How big were those waves? Awesome video, certainly a few badass boats.
