The Frozen Tundra of Orlandowake

Frozen tundra

So what do you do when you find out that overnight the temp is going to drop down to 28°F ( -2°C)? Throw all of your gear in a couple of trees, hook up a couple of hoses to some sprinkler heads, and create a magical wakeboard winter wonderland.At least that’s what we did. We woke up this morning to majestically icicle laden trees (and gear) as well as a frozen tundra of a backyard. Not to mention, the dock was covered with a sheet of ice that almost took us out on numerous occasions. So after being thoroughly impressed by our abilities to create the unimaginable for Florida, it was time to tear the boards out of the trees, suit up, and go ride. Derek was on the water when it was approx. 30°F ( -1°C) and rode like a champ. Sean on the other hand, was smart and waited a couple of hours until it got up to about 45°F ( 7°C) and then had a great set, aside from his fingers being on the verge of frost bite. Enjoy the shots! Hopefully this will never happen again. Click HERE to see the pics.
