Here is the first episode of our hopefully weekly installment of winching videos around Michigan. Look for the shots from Placid Wakepark, as well as the presumably toxic Red Cedar River (no one who was riding on the river has died due to contamination...... yet).
Anyway, heres the vid, and if you ever want to ride with us, holler at me! We're always looking for new people to shred with!

from Al-Pal on Vimeo.




Heres the link to the video as well:

^^ I agree, need to sketch it up a bit. Winching is about putting your health on the line.

I dunno, that ghetto handle looks pretty sketchy. The ledge would be cool though. I love the double sided kicker that Placid has, great idea for a 2.0, a lot better than obsticles that can only be hit going one direction.

Ya we would love to have hit that but it would've been almost impossible to get off the ledge the way we had the winch set up.

Good to see my alma mater is setting the standard - Go Sparty
Get your tetanus vaccine if you are riding the Red Cedar

Hugh, my uncle is your head football coach :-) I'll get at you dudes next time I make the trip up there, I always thought about winching that river, but never ventured down to see if it was doable. You guys still sportin that Sirlin Wrapped Mastercraft? Sparty On.

thats so sick bro.
ya definitely hit us up next time you come up.
And that was the waterski team with the wrapped prostar, but they lost that endorsement somehow. we're still looking for a boat but our winch is definitely keeping us busy.
