Imagine riding a wakeboard — through the sky.

Any volunteers? I imagine it would be a hairy ride from takeoff to a height that would be sufficient to parachute.

I did my share of skydiving, CPT Jack Durish, but there's not a chance in hell I'd try this airborne version of wakeboarding! Your observation is obviously a critical one!

When I saw this I remembered the first few times I tried to stand up on water skies. I'd hate to do a face plant on a runway at 80 kts

CPT Jack Durish 20 years or so I would have jumped on this. Looks like fun.

In my case, 20 years or so isn't nearly enough. I'd need to go back at least 50 or more
