Harf is King

This is a great look at one of the best wakeboarders out there, that of course is Danny Harf. It has information on lots of other wakeboarders too, and talks about where wakeboarding came from. I use this book and some of the other extreme books for a kids camp I work at that helps kids check out sports before they try them. They seem best for the junior high kids who don't know much about the sport but maybe have heard of some of the people in the books. This book will not teach you how to wakeboard, but might help someone get interested in the sport. There is a trick list which is pretty funny with things like hoochie glide defined and it's cool for lots of pics and reading suggestions.
