[@jtinwisconsin]

You gotta love a Barefoot Sanger !

[@marceverds6308]

[@Macmathews1]

WICKED... Love the beats toooo :)

[@indyskierspd501]

Awesome!

[@lbaquero57]

espectacular!

[@WorldBarefootCenter]

Hey Jesse, yes you can definitely come down to Florida and give it a go! our website is in the description, and all information you need for the ski school can be found there! :)

[@looneyskillz1765]

what speed do you run at when going barefoot

[@Einhornzaman]

Does it hurt your feet, not nearly as much as the wipeouts! First few runs of the year cause some irritation! Speed, general rule of thumb that I was taught, your weight divided by 10, add 20. My case, 220 lbs/10=22+20...42mph. That being said my speed varies based on boom, water conditions, long line, etc. Long line on flat water speed is your best friend. The driver though is the key to success in learning. Go to a barefoot training school. You'll learn more in one week than I did in one summer of "trying to figure it out"!! Your body will thank you! I'm not a great footer, don't do it nearly as much as I use to as getting older being a weekend warrior starts to take it's tolls on your body! It amazes me some of the flips, spins, jumps these guys take. My hats off to you! As for the wake...that was pure heaven right there! Something to be said about and outboard skiboat!!

[@haydenksimmons]

FINALLY A WAKEBOARDER WHO LIKES BAREFOOTING!!!!!! They usually always diss on it.

[@marceverds6308]

JD Webb was a barefooter before he started wakeboarding... I competed against him at barefoot nationals in 99 and i bet he stil barefoots on occasion

[@MrEt003]

great barefooting, i wish i was that good

[@darek4488]

I always wonder what about the correct speed at which you can barefoot without the risk of getting you feet underwater.

[@themarcus795]

What speed are you going. Like 25 30 or faster

[@hunterhuck]

few questions.... I am 53 height 5 foot 5 weight 170 been footin for 5-6 years 3 times a week. I can tumble right or left and 1 hand 1 foot on right side only .. on a boom/short rope. long rope I can just hang on and manage a few wake crossings.. question has to do with speed .. on boom we typically go about 32-34 but when 1 foot I go under / hang a toe ..like I weight to much for that speed? I have yet to land a backwards foot... do I need more speed?

[@igoski1582]

This is much harder to do on a 75 foot rope, regular slalom tow bar, straight behind the boat. Do all of those some tricks towed like this, then I'm impressed.

[@mickromer6199]

igoski1 you gotta video of you doing any of these tricks?

[@bonzo354]

why is this not available on mobile? i would like to share but nobody uses home computers anymore.

[@MaksimHuzmiev]

I do not have a Down syndrome, so probably because of that I did not know the name of this song ;) I listened it first time in this video and - yes! - I like it.

[@MaksimHuzmiev]

Please - what music is playing in back?

[@rclv428]

Why are barefoot boats all Outboards instead of direct drive inboards?

[@natule14]

!! Good

[@hunterhuck]

I am 58 yrs old.. foot at 32 to 34 mph. 5 foot 6 and 180ish. I can sit /spin/tumble turn ect, but cant do 1 foot tricks or get around backwards... do I need to raise my speed .. or just move down there and do it every day???

[@WorldBarefootCenter]

Here is a link to an instructional on proper one foot technique kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZame4iqqc1jnMk. - Team WBC

[@WorldBarefootCenter]

Moving down here would be your best option ;)! Yes 32-34 mph is too slow to be doing one foots at. You need to go around 39-40 mph so that the water is a little harder. Alternately if you are directly on the boom you can go a little slower then this. Good luck and let us know if there is anything else we can help you with.

[@thepolarisman500]

does it hurt your feet?

[@ObtainingNewLevels]

What happens if you let go of the rope while it's still going?

[@carlosalbertomotadecastro2746]

cara esse esporte e muito louco gostaria de participar com voces e esses garotos com cabelo de pedrita muito legal

[@omeriva]

music ?

[@TheHirschhirn]

*LOL* starts at 2:39 :D

[@Shawn46310]

Does this hurt your feet?

[@haydenksimmons]

Well, I'm 5' 7" 150 lbs and I go 34 now on the boom/short line. And when I do a one foot, it's pretty good. So if I were you I would try about 36, maybe 37/38 if you're comfortable with it! But I'm not as good as you, I think I need to raise up my boom cuz on the shortline my suit curls by my shoulder blades so it just digs into the water. But I can one foot and one hand on the boom. It's pretty sketch on the shortline. I'm uploading a video and I need advice. Check it out in a couple days!

[@Patch5636]

So you can guess names of songs?

[@romicoroot]

прикольные девчонки)))

[@JoeZasada]

it doesn't hurt your feet - it feels just like someone spraying your feet with a garden hose

[@marceverds6308]

that is FALSE, try going 5+ miles in a single run and tell me your feet dont hurt tough guy

[@christiannavigato]

im 160lbs and I long line at 38 mph

[@skyflyut]

2:45 Face plant

[@haydenksimmons]

Someone obviously doesn't barefoot. The suits we barefooters use are filled with padding that floats.

[@tomlane1722]

wow all the girls r well fit plus this aint a sport this is maniacy i wakeboard and ride at 25 wich is fast for a wakeboarder but i like the spped u guys go twice that ur nutts i love it woooooooooooooo

[@MrEt003]

i can barefoot at 30 mph, and i am 14, but only 85lbs

[@TheTmanpwnsu]

Apparently they are to good for life jackets...

[@225sundowner]

Doesn't that hurt you feet?

[@gortnewton4765]

Good luck. If you hit anything that's floating in the water you'll rip a foot off.

[@iCruncheez]

wats the point of barefooting??

[@jillpratt933]

Thumbs up to the girls without wetsuits. Ouccchhhhhh! Please don't fall :)

[@paulwaterstreet7132]

I can't believe that you ski without lifejackets on. We have drownings every year due to people not wearing lifejackets and have a state law that requires jackets to be worn. Put up videos that show safety first and then the very talented bare footers. You may have to come out and see how we bare foot and teach people without a boom, but all wearing lifejackets and some with barefoot suits.

[@ghotioutofh2o]

Super buoyant bikinis? See 2:00

[@its_DanB]

this is incredibly stupid to do with out life jackets or the wet suits with life jackets in them... even the professionals can take a spill and get knocked out and then guess what... you drown

[@broncosgjn]

bla bla bla

[@bsand727]

+It's_DannyBaranowski Full suits are the way to go. Seen couple kids have to go to the hospital because they took water up the butt doing something stupid.

[@broncosgjn]

[@bh8671]

Grahame Nicholson wow. You must be really fun at parties. Can you actually string a sentence together or is that the best you’ve got! He is right. Anyone who has ever skied or been barefooting knows it only takes a second to get hurt or knocked out and not long to drown. But what’s the point of me saying anything. You already proved you’re a brain dead moron.

[@marceverds6308]

its called confidence in your ability to not only perform but to know how to avoid a bad situation... I dont wear a vest barefooting on the boom and i dont wear floatation surfing big waves either because it makes me uncomfortable and I have gotten hurt really bad wearing it... Its not always black and white and if you are not on that level you cant really speak to whether it is dangerous or not, now can you?
