People with that little balance/ability to even mount a couch have NO business riding one!!! They pose a danger to themselves and other people and give us all a bad name!!! If they can't balance that large a ski while in shallow water, what will happen when they need to perform an evasive manuever in an emergency situation??? I can hear it now "I didn't know it didn't have brakes!!!! Whadda ya mean it doesn't steer when you let off the gas, my car does!!!???"


On a different note, it sure is entertaining and funny to watch, but it does kinda hurt my soul.....:biggrin:

I saved to very heavy people on a Doo that flipped on day at the inlet... there is no way they would have made it... neither one of them could get back on the ski, so I pulled them to the shore w/ my ski then towed their ski back to them... what a mess... they had no buisness on a ski

My wife and I were fishing YEARS ago, in my little aluminum flat bottom boat.

an older ( and rather hefty) coupleflipped a PADDLE boat thing.

she was screaming, he was frantic, it was upside down and slick on the bottom, they couldnt get back on it.

the renter guy couldnt get his outboard started, I saw him yellng and frantically pulling on the rope.

I guided my boat over with the foot control trolling motor ( troll speed only lake) and fished the whole way.. took a couple of minutes.

the old man I was able to pull into my boat, the lady, well, she wasnt much help ( upper body strength) and when we tried to pull , her boobs sort of block forward motion.

so she held on to the side of the boat.

wife and I fished all the way to the boat rental place just trolling along talking to them.

saving people is cool.

I was dating a girl who wanted to get scuba certified so she could dive with me, so I agreed to take the class with her since it was cheap and she didn't want to go by herself.

There were five people there that had no business being in the water much less diving. And guess what, the shop certified them all. Of course, once they're certified, then they buy equipment. Hmmmm....

I used to wonder why a few people die each year diving in Lake Travis. After that class, I knew. Back when I was initially certified, in 86, we had one person who shouldn't have been certified, and they didn't pass her. I wonder which was the exception?
