We always called them surfboards. I first used an old plywood homemade one when I was about 10.. shortly thereafter we got our first pair of waterskiis. This was a wonderful way to grow up. (Lake Matawanakee, Littleton, MA)
As we grew older we hated going out when it was rough... rough you say... I did not know rough until coming to Winnipesaukee!!!!
Today and tomorrow we should have some serious rough... no waterskiing for me!
