i honestly couldnt name one automobile that you couldnt wakeboard behind. this thing isnt anything special. ive done this behind a four wheeler so bmw can get over themselves
we did this with someone standing on the back, the roof rack snapped out of the runner and cloths lined him off the back of the moving car. it was on a beach but still fucked him up pretty good.
20 ft?!?!?!?! are you crazy. I've never seen anyone ride less then 60 feet, and its a WAKE not a wave. I ride at 75 feet at 24 mph. Get your facts right if you want to sound smart
well, in england we dont have boats (not when i went a few weeks ago anyway) we have this weird clothes line thing around a lake that pulls the rope, and its still called wakeboarding here.
We do have boats in England. Hundreds of them in fact. Theres plenty of lakes all around the country with mastercrafts and ski nautiques and malibu boats to wakeboard on.
Theres also cable systems such as JBSki at thorpe, Princes cable ski near heathrow and sheffield cable ski near sheffield and many more which as the above said are a cable system around the lake which pulls you around. Theres ramps and sliders to give you air and do tricks
Why are all of the British car shows so damn much better than the US ones? Top Gear on BBC America is unbelievable, and this appears to have the same spirit. Keep it up, UK.
guess stupid this show is about cars not wakeboarding. and top gear is a show for people that think they know cars, but acuually they dont, so if you are that stupid dont commant on any videos
I love the X5, but how is pulling a wakeboarder going to save the average person money? If you want to save money buy the diesel not the V8 petrol! Sheesh! Love the X5!
no offence to people who have the 07 x5 but i like the 2000-2006 model better, just looks better, this one looks to much like an X3 and that isnt a good thing :p
dont be hating on a car that you like but cant afford. I have an x5 and its probobly the best truck i ever had. You guys hate on it because you'll never have it. Like danny969ng said... go buy a hyundai
how stupid.. what does pulling a waveboarder have to do with this car.. i thought they would actually turture test the car in war and rugged terrain... but pull 200 pounds?? come on... it can do that 5 times over.. unless you have th optional seating for 7.
oh wow, im gonna put a second mortgage on the house and buy me one of these things, because it can pull a wakeboarder, and in the meantime bury myself neck deep in debt, fuck BMW!

MyBday is right your wrong i swear to god i would rather have a hyundai THE X5 IS WANK! ...A off road car that can't actually go off road... THERE CRAPPY... and what the hell kind of test is that?! A quadbike can tow a wakeboarder... FITH GEAR IS SHIT YOUR SHIT AND THE X5 IS SHIT... Top Gear FTW!

omg are you kidding me.... ANY car can pull a wakeboard... I wakeboard and the desired speed for a wakebaord is around 23 mph... so ifyour car can go 23 you can have a good wakebaording session.... but also you cna start out AS SLOW AS YOU WANT... so ANY CAR can pretty much pull a wakebaorder.. haha this is retarded

NFLstar80 3 years ago
the longer the line the more hangtime you get
wakeboarder1234567 3 years ago
the lenght of the rope varies around 20ft depending on the wave yr boat gets.. just adjust the rope at the point yr boats wave is the biggest.. ;)
