Anyways, moving on...

I've always been curious what other wakeskaters thought about beach winching. We grew up on the beach and then picked up wakeskating later on, so for us, it was a no-brainer... but I'm still left wondering what the inland waterdancer thinks of when they see a picture like this one... does it evoke the stoke?

The stoke has been invoked

I think that photo is bad to the bone, but I don't totally relate to it. I see that little curl and it makes me want to boost a re-entry. But it's not the same as seeing someone like reed actually kill it re-entry behind the boat.

As a landlocked midwesterner, that's my response to that killer ollie.

I think it looks bad ass. and i finally got to try it recently and WOW is it hard. I had to edge on my toes that made it a lot harder, but its so hard to time and do it right.

nick, i dont have fun beach winching, with a surfboard its cool but its just too dificult. Maybe because its cold here but its just not a good time.

clean up of winch and gear is hell too.

if there's a clean little swell rolling in beach winching is so much fun.

Clean waves don't happen much on the great lakes though Sad

i think that beach winching is really cool. that photo is so nice.

that being said, if there are waves, i won't be wakeskating.

Lollar, will do, it would be cool to get a south florida crew. With me being a beginner I can learn a lot faster that way.
