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.
