35mph behind my 210 in choppy water and I was scared. very scared. I didn't even cross the wake.
what about yours?

I know there is an old video of Danny Harf and Rusty doing whips behind one and clocking them with a radar... I wanna say Rusty hit 70-ish. I've done around 35 behind my dad's boat... that was definitely a "Ride For Self Preservation" kind of moment...

I was going 42mph in September, got a little too cocky, did a 180 to faceplant, dislocated my shoulder, 4 torn ligaments, hyperextended my back...needless to say I'll never do that s**t again

I don't know how fast I was going, but it was as fast as the MC stars and stripes would go. and then whipped around a tight turn. I was trying to whip around the boat. First attempt I was sooooo close....so I had to try it again. That's one of those moments I wish could have back...or at least had it on video so I could watch it for a good cringe. 2nd attempt didn't go so well.

Not on a wakeboard but the boat whipped me on a wakeskate with no fins at 35mph, so probably around 45mph and caught up to the boat. Then slid out and tumbled 4 or 5 times. Came out with two big scabs from banging my legs on the skate after tumbling. Fun though.

Jeff Mathis hit 65mph indicated behind the Waverunner at Lake Martin last year. Fasted I've heard.

I've hit 35mph behind our boat, there wasn't alot of the board below the waterline it was more of a skim board at that point,when I let go of the rope half way through the whipi fell flat on my back and slid for like 30 feet,the next day I had the biggest bruise of my life.I'll probally be doing it again this year,if for nothing else than just for bragging rights.

The fastest I have gone on a board was 45 to get past some idiot s turners

Back in the day we used to ride at a ski lake and would hit the jump ramp on our boards and got the boat up to 40 a few times. Those were fun times

(sidekicknicholas)

This is going to sound super gay, but I was kneeboarding, yeah I know.... and we put two lines together, not all the way out (maybe like 120ft.) then got the boat up to full speed, ~40mph and did a huge whip to see how many times I could go around the boat..... during my cut the kneeboard exploded from going so fast.... every screw holding the strap brackets down pulled out and I went flying.... didn't hurt because I was so low to the ground, but I would be willing to bet I was doing at least 60....

Maybe this summer I'll get some locktight and break my record.

I think if I had an old school directional skurfer and mounted some newer binders on it we could get up to at least 75, problem is that no one generally has a boat that'll go that fast. My buddys boat goes 110mph but you'd have to ride like 200ft back.

High speed whips, got up to 43 mph. According to the perfect pass anyways.

we whip each other in the 5zone by the island on the ski for fun...sometimes it feels like you're doin a hundred but it's realistically only like 35-40...
