[fireworld45]

CRazy dude XD

[indysled5001321]

so it prob wouldn't work with a 25hp boat that does about 60kmh

[ROBERTxxP]

probly not. haha. but a boat with 25hp is better then no boat.

[TORCHforAMERICA]

that would really kill your ass without spandex

[yukolop]

mad skillz

[indysled5001321]

whats the smallest size motor you can do this behind?

[thelightning87]

The minimumspeed to be able to properly stand is about 70km/u/45mph

Depends on the kind of boat u have how many HP you need.. if you have a light boat.., at least 60/70hp would be perferred

[fordmustang51]

depends on how much you weigh. the heavier you are, the faster you need to go.

[omgiku]

doesnt that like. kill your feet?

[wildkitwall]

no u cant like relly feel itand it doesnt tickle either

[afyith]

[jmfooter14]

[waterskiingdude]

[MNTheStateofHockey]

fuckin' awesome, love the song choices especially the first one

[brittcrowell]

Just for the slow mo headers you get 5 stars!

People just dont know how many times you take it in the nogin to get it right the first time.

Keep it up!

[Airiflerholic]

thats how to get an enema.

but 5 star anywya!

[kellectrik]

I'm 46, been footn for a long time but just got serious. At 200lbs I thought you had to go 40+ but with a little research, learned I could foot at 35MPH. Proper foot position will keep the spray down. Lane Bowers instructional video and all his "podcasts" helped alot. To do front to backs etc etc I'm sure I'll have to go faster, but I'm going to go to Florida next year to either Dawg Bower's or St Onge's school so I can learn some tricks without injuring myself further. BAREFOOTIN IS THE BOMB!

[hevflbzvrtd]

thats crazy whats the name of the first song

[kopeanin]

(can't get my) head around you by offspring

[drumfor1]

Right on! Those toe hold turns look effortless. Funny how much pain is endured for the rush. Great backward up one foot toe hold...impressive as hell!

[Auglet23]

hey its Augi

[SchoolYard123]

ROFL! I could never do this in my life! I tried wakeboarding this summer and I SUCKED.

[badassbansheee]

who sings the first song

[adams6998]

im also a new skier...i suck but im only 12....advice plz!!!

[hi400229]

the guy with the thumbs up is kinda cute... barefoot skiing looks kind of scary going so fast..... im sticking to tubing right now xD good thing i had pretty high classes for swimming when i was a kid..ahhh youth hood

[MattRox11]

my dad used to be able to do this, but he got fat :>

[zabomb89]

you have to be going at like the minimum of 40

[thefishnet]

how fast do you go?

[nautiqueaddiction102]

well theres a formula (weight divided by 10 plus 15) but im pretty sure the prof. speed is 45.

[Ipodtouchftwz]

The speed is determined by the skiiers bodyweight, his style etc. There are no certain "designated speed", but yeah, you have to be going pretty fast, it's not like wakeboarding where you can go 10 knots if you want, couse in barefoot skiing you only have your feet to support your whole wieght, while in wakeboard you have the whole board.

Cheers for stating the obvious =)

[DawgTV]

size of your foot and your weight are no longer the key factors. Your form will determine how fast you have to go. check out the 5 day video course free at DawgTvLive..com and learn to relax on the water to stay safe and slow...

[enjoihenry1]

how is that possible??

[swimstudalldaway]

nice vid man good job

[searay77]

*hit a log*

[collinballin1]

nuts

[skiersasa1]

OMG! I am so happy to see other barefooters! It's so great to watch others! i am newer at barefooting so i like well... suck!! watching ppl really helps me!

[josh5968]

How the hell do you get up on your feet? How fast do you have to be going?

[meganwewt]

bare footing is hard im scared to do lol i hate hurting ym feat 1 ski for me

[eriky399]

I tried but I sucked.

[bothsox]

me friend can do a back flip off the dock and barefoot at 75 MPH

[Jrockskiproeast]

Jumping in general is just about getting as much energy from the ramp into your torso vs. deflected energy into you legs and hips. If you'll notice, some of the biggest jumpers don't invert nearly as fast as lesser jumpers. It's all mechanics.

Dang, I could talk about footing all day. Call me if you wish to discuss. Jason Lee 615-554-3530

[Jrockskiproeast]

Jumping looked solid. It looks like you're taking the compression well. My best was 65 feet before going inverted. It's the best way to learn. Don't rush into jumping inverted. You can go big traditional and it makes learning to jump well inverted WAY easier.

[Jrockskiproeast]

The headlines are: You step under on your turns. Fix it now if you can. If you continue to do it you will always struggle with absolute consistency. stepping under is just risker and I can only think of a few old school guys that step under and do it well all the time.

You are over rotating most of your missed toe turns. The toe turn to the back is passive by nature. Your using too much strength to accomplish it. It's all in the hips. Try to minimize shoulder and arm movement.

[Jrockskiproeast]

I know how to get up. It's a little to involved to explain it here.

Nice job on the runs man. Keep it up.

I was going to go trick by trick and try to offer advice on form and motion but it got really long.

[kandyc93]

that looks like it really hurts!

[owenmack9]

far. ur heaps goo i only just learnt how to step off the water ski.how old r u and have u ever been 2 da hawksbury river. australia. u should it's heaps good and how do u do bare foot deepies cos my feet always fall off da rope

[jakesug]

whats this song called ?

[Th3MileHighClub]

i tried just getting up once with just my feet out in front like as if you would be getting up on water skiing and it didnt work and i've been wondering how your supposed to do it for a long time and now i know that your supposed to drag your face in the rushing water and have your feet inside a tight hole thing..lol good job anyways, your brain must be watery

[Glitchrf]

What part of the chain are you on? I see that you are on Lake Pleasant in some of those videos.

[footin247]

I was on the three lakes chain I think it was on mapple and crystal lake and I was also on stormy lake but thats in conover

[sox3214]

im pretty impressed. im on a watersking team. i have been since i was 11 and out of all the summers i have dedicated to waterskiing ive never seen someone barefoot so well with so many tricks. well done!

[jordanwhite1414]

k 3 things

1)wow

2)instant enema much lol like going on your ass that must cuase some water up the anus =P

3)you must have like mad crazy feet for that, when im skiing and dorp one for slalom and touch the water it stings alittle going for the whoel time you must be nuts good job OMFG!

[barefootfanatic4]

jake awesome video this is richard balek

[footin247]

thanks when are you going to scarpas

[steenrye]

Wow, these guys are mental :) It must cost a lot of broken bones to learn these tricks ?

[4x4buck]

my dad and his friends used to do stuff like that back in the 70s sometimes without wet suits

[camsam1100]

thats sweet

[k0nna]

onko tuo suomesta?? ::D

[AikenForClay]

how fast do you need to go to bare foot?

[petterlang]

about 30 kts

[4x4buck]

weight divided by 10 and add 13mph so if you weigh 100 pounds you should be pulled about 23 mph

[thejetjunior]

I don't think that formula is very accurate. I weigh about 100 and there's no way I'd be close to being able to barefoot at 23. I'v heard divide by 10 and add 20. Thirty sounds a lot better(even though I like about 35)

[4x4buck]

my bad ur definitley more accurate i have never put the formula to test that is just what i have heard

[wakerider927]

I think its dived by 10 plus 20 cuz i go 27/28 and im eighty pounds

[petterlang]

FAKE!

[clayphoon326]

this isnt fake this is all real uv nvr seen barefooting before?

[petterlang]

you have a really good understanding of irony i must say.

[Hymninway4]

awesome dude! i slalom! but im working on barefoot right now! iv not had much time to work on it though! this summer has been really busy! get video though! ;)

[zenkulis]

thats awsome man ;]

[cmshoenberger]

u saw how he got up when he dove off the stand on the shore... alot of beginners tho use this pole attached more to ths side of the boat and just hold on to it as opposed to what he has attached to the back

[texasdude92]

haha...sweet....the water has to be pretty flat, though. cant do that in 2ft waves like in my bay....but nice man.

[goobergoofyyea]

awsome i just tried water skiing yesterday and turns out im a natural i got up first try and goin off jumps. next i want to try that thanks for the inpyaration and that first songs awsome check out my channel

[brettman123]
