Ripman.... Nice to see you again... I'll be returning in the air in about 5-7 years... Taking a break from PPG to take care of family things... Don't fret, I'll be back with something new and wonderful... See you in the air in the future... Your friend "The Flying Alligator"
Looks like so much fun! Thanks Rip for the footage. Can someone explain why people drag their feet behind them close to the prop? If you're going to foot drag the water, keep your feet out in front and ride the water like a ski. Don't drag your foot behind. It will only slow you down.
I was thinking the same thing through the whole video. Plus, if you do go in the pressure from the water is more likely to push your feet back and up into the potentially still-spinning prop. Every one of those made me nervous.
5 stars!! Highly recommend.
😊

I thought this was Bad Apples, but apparently it is Endless Foot Drag. :-)
Good point. The grass and the pond here is for sure much more conducive to long foot drags.
Shout out to the pilots who did the full ski circuit around the pond.
5:55 That foot drag transition from solid earth to pond takes a lot of skill, nice job Matt!
Thank you for filming!
I love the water drag footage. Thanks for sharing.

That little lake has had more feet in it than bowling alley rental shoes.
😂
What with that guy in the fishing vest @20:30 ?
🤣
Sweet!
Guy @1:43 pretending he meant to land 😂
Wow, that’s a lot of foot dragging. I had another note, I don’t know what I was saying, but you sure caught me dropping some F bombs there didn’t you?
Great stuff!
6:20 looked like a really close one.....Lucky he didn't hit you
Let's kick some fish! Guy under the red wing gettin' er dun.
Looks like most folks were on their A-game later in the week. Has anyone coined the phrase "pond hog" yet?
PPG Sturgis. But 100X more fun.
And half the noise
I'm surprised there were no swimmers in this one. Almost though...
😂
all that water drag doesn't hurt the propeller?
It does!
Whooo
That look like Mitch at 20:15
hi where these water theres mosquitos?
Not too bad!
