Thursday Video: No Beach, No Problem

Who said Florida was entirely beaches and palm trees? Hang on tight — surf’s up!

These creative Floridians made the most of a full ditch and wet conditions with the simple addition of a wakeboard and a willing cowboy. The concept is sound: this is how the canal and towpath worked, after all, though I doubt Sal the mule ever reached these speeds along the Erie …

Full credit to the wakeboarder, because we’re 100% certain if we tried this at HN HQ we’d end up faceplanting into the ground within four seconds. This guy is not only proficient at moving in a nice straight line but he’s got a few moves as well! Hand it to horse people to know the best way to make their own fun — anywhere, any time.

Go riding … and wakeboarding.
