    Thought this year would be too early...

    Can't believe it but my 3 year old is riding boat now. He rode cable twice before he tried the boat. He is loving it! Here is a quick video of him riding today. So proud of my little man!

      3...He started riding with me last year. Over the past year I have been having him in a board laying on his back and I will pull him up and pull him across the carpet in our shop. About a month ago he got up when I started pulling him from the shore. Then the cable and now boat. He picked it up so easy. Got up at the cable and boat on his first try. Actually he has only fallen getting up once which was my fault.

            How fast were u pulling him at? With the front ballast full i can plane out at like 10 mph so i was thinking that would be a good starting speed for little ones. Mines only three weeks though....

                I'm actually pulling him at 13mph. We started at 10 the first day but it was way too slow for him. Congrats Brichter and 99SAN! We have another boy due Sept. 30. Ready to do it all over again.

                        I'm impressed. It took me almost 4 summers to get my son on a wakeboard. Good job Dad!

                              Tony it's a Ronix 119 Vision. Great board and he will be able to progress on this one for years to come.
