Has anyone on here ridden a flowrider?

it looks really fun in its own way. I think the best part would be falling off and getting flushed down the toilet. That looks cool.

I know you do, that was my point all along! Just figured you were 'falling in' with your freinds even if it makes no sense.



I though my element comment was kind of funny and thought you would appreciate it if they made special allowances for you folks.


I got it and thought it was a valid point and semi-funny. The element is like a Prius for grown-ups who still like to use good ol' fashioned gasoline, but think they are environmentally freindly. It must be the name.

I have ridden the standing wave at the WaveHouse in Mission a few times.
Pretty sketchy and hurts like hell when you slam down on the hard bottom.
Flowriders are super lame. Similar to skim boarding on flat sand.
I have a few friends who have rented the park in FL which is an actual wave that peel's. There is a right a left and a split peak. They said it's pretty dam fun with a few cases of beer and all your boys.

Keep the valleys in the valley? 50+ in the water the other day. Weekends are for working.

Nice thread derail.

I have a similar objective for my postings:

First, I like to have half of my posts be serious or useful and surf related. The second half I like to be attempts at humor or sarcasm. And I reserve the final half for things that just plain don't make sense.

What doesn't make sense is that you added an extra half.
3 - half's don't make a whole.
