The price seems to be around 400-600. I am going to wait until I get my new boat as it will more than likely be a V drive. I have always wanted to learn how to foot. I slalom and wake board a lot. So figure time to learn something new.

Booms benefit kids learning to combo or slalom too. They're worth thier weight in gold!

I wouldn't recommend it! Unless you just into Pain. They use to before the boom was invented, but not the prefered method. Booms seem expensive but they're really priceless. If cost is an issue look for a used one. |

After watching a few of these videos I have
some questions. Can you learn how to barefoot without a Barefoot boom?. If not how much is a decent boom? |

No worries HW, you're welcome to cruise my photobucket anytime!
Yep, he had to give me a few pointers plus I'm not used to pulling at those speeds or how peppy the boat is now. <--Not bad problems to have. Amy said thanks on the pics! HW, the handle in 'Too Fast' on another thread looks exactly like what I just bought. The handle Glass Seeker has is the one. |

That is a beautiful wake, brother. My '01 SN has a nasty foot wake. Nice for slalom, not so good for footing. At 70'-80' back a rooster tail shoots up and grabs your foot! Just ask GlassSeeker!
Nice pics, too... |

I didn't bring a camera on Good Friday, but we skied. Drysuits all around, Johnny has some pics. Went for another W2W bomb out and crashed hard.
Also got out last Friday courtesy of BuffaloBFN and Mrs.Buffalo (?) for a couple rips down Wahoo creek, Lake Lanier GA. Hope he doesn't mind me snatching some pictures from his Photobucket! Phantom Barefooter, my new trick. Thumbs up for a good time (Greg's first deepwater pull?), OOPS now we're going faster! LOVE that table. |

Not much action here guys. Get the boat on the water and rip a set.
My ski club opened and of course Lakeboy and his faithful mentor GlassSeeker were on the water: Footin' at Sheridan How 'bout you Hollywood. Did you get out? |

Hopefully the ice is off your lake or river and you guys are starting to throw down a set or two. GlassSeeker and myself ripped our first official Spring set on Sunday with warm temperatures and glassy water.
LakeBoy Foots GlassSeeker Foots Andy wasn't ready to ditch the drysuit, but hung it up after the first set. It is Spring in the Golden State folks! Bring it on! |
