If you ain’t first, you’re last.

New fly by wire steering maybe? Boat didn't respond at all when he pulled hard starboard.

He mustve seen too many of those freddy king mud motor videos.

That could’ve been much much worse. Dang.

I was expecting much worse. Glad he's OK.

Idiot.

**Elcid_Fowler** · 03-11-2021, 10:08 PM

Haha...I like how he just sits back down and hammers down as if there won’t be any problems.

I think that was on purpose. Knock the bait off those rocks, stop and fish the ensuing topwater frenzy. A true pro.

Slow the video to half speed. He was already chine walking then it grabbed and pulled hard left. He wasn't able to turn hard to the right until the boat was beginning to upset that's probably why it didn't respond to steering inputs much.

Says the video has been removed now.

The bow caught. Steering at that point wasn’t up to him. It was just a poor choice to try and take the inside line in those boat wakes. It’s no different than running a high performance boat up on pad and coming out of the throttle hard without trimming down first. Once that bow drops it’s going to hook and there’s usually nothing you can do about it.
