I was blessed being a member of a boating family while growing up. I started wakeboarding when I was 13 behind our 19' Jet boat. In highschool my dad upgraded to a Sanger V210 and good times were had by all.
I am now 21 in my 4th year of college. Since I have been away at college I have only ridden a handful of times which is a big departure from riding roughly everyother weekend when I was in highschool. Last year I only had one opportunity to ride, later that day we sold our boat to some family friends since we never used it anymore, sad day needless to say.
I had to opportunity to go vacation/riding on the Colorado river this past weekend with some friends, first ride of the year and hopefully not the last! It was epic, I was stoked. I thought I would share some photos.

We woke up every morning at 5:45 and would ride till 8 or so. Some guys slept in the boat, true committment!

Enjoy

Evan, you need to hook up with the riders at UCSB. My friend Jared is at SBCC and he rides a fair amount. If you wanna ride there is plenty of opportunity near there. on a side note I miss the river, my dad sold his house out there in September. This will be the first summer with no River trips in over 15 years. Sad times...

Ya that brings back a lot of memories of when I lived in So Cal, we always went to the colorado river and had a blast and great water in the early mornings, that is if we could ever wake up from the night before. GOOD TIMES!!!

We were on the Parker strip, we rode mainly on the southern part (down river)

Sweet pic's.
That last pic reminds me of Victorias on the Delta

Any more pix of the girls? The shotgunning is hella funny, good pix altogether. Parker looks fun, I've never been there, maybe hopefully sometime :-)

Brian- Are you not going out to the Delta anymore? I am planning on going out Sunday and will probably have room. (not sure if you remember, but we met at a competition on the Delta last season, I parked next to J-Rod's boat and we chatted a lil)
