Wakeboarding is extremely popular in Europe. There are two varieties - wakeboarding behind a boat and wakeboarding on a fixed rope towing rig.
The Brits have invented a third variant - riding behind a fast-moving yacht: in this photo, taken during Cowes Sailing Week, a wakeboarderraces behind a sailing catamaran. Perhaps this will soon become normal practice?
