Went out wakeboarding one evening this week and started taking shots hoping for a good success entry but instead wound up with a pretty good failure entry, haha. Opened it in photohop and adjusted the levels, contrast, sharpened it a little, added a border, cropped and resized, then saved for web.

Landing is no problem. Gravity will help with that... Landing 'upright' now that's another story. lol Nice action shot! Well done.

I predict pain.

I see the potential for either success or failure, not evidence of either.

Man, that's gonna suck, but it sure is good for clearing the sinuses. Great timing and great capture, but the tilt really bothers me. Its one of my biggest pet peeves.

Interesting action and nice catch on the spray. I'd love to see a level horizon and more color in the sky. Good start and some post processing would even make it stronger.
