Dad with a Spring SMB.

Dad, who was probably 75 or 76 at the time, skiing behind my Malibu. He had a great time, and said it would likely be his last time skiing.:(

Malibu doesn't have a wake conducive to skiing until you get above about 30 MPH. And even then it is too big.

Not only would surfing out of a narrow side canyon be dangerous to the surfer, but to any person who happened to be fishing or enjoying the peace in such places. It would be the height of stupid to put the surfer and the wake maker at risk and the height of thoughtless and reckless behavior nearing the criminal to do it. It is bad enough having PWC's ripping in and out. The lake only works if everyone puts another users safety ahead of their own selfish wants. I see a lot of that on the lake and also lots of injury and accident. There are an untold number of swamps of small boats, canoes and kayaks that don't go reported but that ruin a persons whole vacation due to thoughtless acts of speed and daring do by big horsepower and beer. So, that said, I love the pix posted on this particular thread. They may be as close as I'll get to the lake this year.

That's exactly why my family and I stay away from Bullfrog/Halls Crossing in the summer months, the high temps come in second.

Yes to all of the above, But wouldn't it make a cool video. Or maybe stupid the way you see it.. So many precautions would have to be undertaken to minimize risk and of course keep others from being exposed as well. There is a reason it has not been done. But again I say,what a video that would make.
 
Once in a while I paddleboard in Newport Beach in the back bay area. They have a morning yoga class on paddleboards and they do this. It requires strength and balance.

This was my niece's Senior Picture. We took a bunch of photos, but this one was our favorite. I don't think you can beat Lake Powell for scenery. And yes I know you are required to wear a PFD.
