Wakeboarding - Long Isle, NY

[turboale]

I got a chance to borrow a 300mm 2.8L IS and jumped on the chance. Took it out wakeboarding to grab some shots of a friend who is sponsored by Liquid Force and is getting an article written about him. We were suppose to be on the water at 7 while the light was still a bit low but got stuck in traffic getting out of the city. Anyway, the whole set is CLICK HERE (http://akent.smugmug.com/Wakeboarding/Wakeboarding-09-19-09/9703898_sRZ6Q#655892275_jXswN) but here are my favorites. CC is always welcome, if I'm going to make any changes, I need to make them soon. ;) Thanks for looking!

Thanks guys, I think thats my favorite as well. Do you think the strap on his wetsuit takes away from it, or doesn't bother you or adds to it? I am on the fence about taking it out...?

I'd get rid of it to create a cleaner space between the rider & ground.

I also like the cab front shot (4), one of my favorite tricks. I think bringing up the black levels in that shot would make it pop more.
