East Tennessee Trippin’: Wakeboarding on South Holston
After a night at the FoodCity 250, we got to go wakeboarding with our hosts son. The scenery around South Holston Lake is just amazingly beautiful. The day was hazy but the mountains were just amazing.
We did a little swimming and socializing in the water before wakeboarding. The water was perfect. The Ikelite underwater housing for the Fuji F10 came in real handy.
The wakeboarding got starting with some cool tricks from our host. After a couple of flips, he handed the board over and offered to drive for everyone else.
Everyone who wanted got a chance to ride. I went last, just before lunch, and was unable to get up on the board. I could get out of the water, but it was concluded that the board was too small for me to actually ride. Kind of a bummer, but I’ll have to try again sometime with a bigger board.
After all this, we managed to get in a little rest before heading off to Bristol Motor Speedway for the Nextel Cup Series Sharpie 500.
