WAKEBOARD SLALOM | HOW FAST CAN I RUN THE COURSE

As some of you may know, I've been slalom skiing a lot lately and really enjoying it.
Naturally my brain began to think - can I run the slalom course on a wakeboard, and if I can, how quickly can I do it. Plus, can I add a few flips in there too.
I think if my board had a little more rocker, I could probably go quicker.
All in al a great challenge and experiment, and maybe a whole new sport?
Thanks so much for watching.
Dave

Love it david!!! I’m super excited about the more consistent videos!! Great job and keep it up!

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Thank you! Glad to hear it! Will do our best to keep them coming!

[@edwardmoloney1914]

Keep the slalom content up🤟🏽

[@classof09x]

That was fun to watch!! Keep them coming!

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Thank you! More in the pipeline!

[@alibro11]

love it. Managed to run 43k on my 148 butterstick pro a few years ago in a backyard comp. started off with the 180 technique as well but without fins i ended up doing better on my toeside at higher speeds haha. Will need to up my game next time to try match you 😂.

[@MoeOuan666]

great idea, loved it. I used to carve a lot in wakepark before the introduction of plastic features.....Now I'd like to still do it, but you get hated by all the other riders and I am not in good enough shape to do it for long anyway ;)

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Haha yeah I can imagine everyone going crazy behind you 😅! But yeah it’s good fun and excellent fitness!

[@nichewson]

Love this! Many years ago I used to run the course at 34mph (on a double boot slalom). The jump in speed from 28 to 34 was vast. 36mph was my nemesis - never got all six and the gates. Love what you're doing.

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Wow, you were pretty good so! Definitely not an easy thing to do!

[@nichewson]

@@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder Ah, thanks. You're super talented - you'll be running the course at 36 in no time. 👍🏼

[@kriskris5330]

Would love to see some slalom tutorials like you did with wakeboarding!

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Haha I don’t think I’d have the credibility (yet). Give me another season or two 😅

[@JLK8339]

More slalom content!

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

[@henryprudhoe1641]

Lets see more skiing

[@pikepunk1]

Yo Dave, looking good. Hey to Dazza.

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Thanks man! Dazza just had a baby! Times are changing!

[@flatlandervs.]

Time to try your hand at waterski jumping i guess!

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Hahah I’m not crazy enough for that!

[@flatlandervs.]

@@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder If you're ever in the Midwest of the US, we'd love to give you lake and ramp access! It sounds absolutely nuts, but the true secret is "holding an edge" through the ramp, complete opposite of cable riding

[@maelgille3861]

Bro finished the game…😂

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

😅

[@classof09x]

You think there is any type of flip that can be done like osmosis? Sounds impossible lol but thought I’d spit out the idea

[@classof09x]

Osmosis back mob 5 Busty Dunn of course it exist hah

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Like the comment says! Busty can do it! I think I might be riding with him tomorrow - if I am, I’ll try film it

[@ZayneM232]

Hi david remember me hint "photoshoot"

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Hahah I dooo of course Zach! Hope you’re keeping well and enjoying the summer!

[@ZayneM232]

@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder yes but Zach is my dad I'm the kid Zayne

[@MegaVince09]

That’s 30 miles per hour, faster than you did last time on your slalom ski😊I really don’t know what that would mean🤔

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Hahahah I don’t either! 😂

[@charlesletellier7471]

Shorten the rope !

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

I think I have to get to 58km before I do? 😉
