I mean, it is Literally just ignoramuses being dragged by a rope through the water and over waves behind a boat. How people would ever consider this a sport or an exercise in athleticism I will never understand when if you did this to someone on land you would be charged with attempted murder and likely thrown into prison for trying to kill someone even if you tried to beat the charges with a moronic defense that you and your buddies were just getting ready for the X-games, i mean, seriously? Just because you can tape-record your friend with your GoPro tied up behind your speedboat flailing around literally getting wakeboarded through wakes until they are exhausted doesn't mean it's a sport, because any judge would likely rule it torture especially if your friend gets hurt and tells you to stop. To summarize, if you don't have money to buy water skis and learn how to stand up and do real tricks like jumps and flips over boat wakes like a real athlete, wakeboarding is likely an activity you would enjoy.
