Video: Guy wakeboards down a canal while being towed by a Ferrari F50

This stuff is all kinds of crazy, but we love it...

This stuff is all kinds of crazy, but we love it…

“How do you spend your weekends,” should be an interesting and complicated question for these fellas. “We surf up canals using a supercar as tow truck,” probably not as straight forward as having a Netflix marathon like the rest of us.

This footage, shot in Lincolnshire, England, is of professional wakeboarder Jorge Gill, who is a two-time European wakeboarder champion, as he surfs along the stretch of water with the help of the classic Ferrari.

The video is class and the car is said to be doing as much as 84mph at some points in the clip. We are no surf or wakeboard experts but even we know that this is insanely fast to be travelling when only wearing a wetsuit and it is no surprise that reports are saying that Police are currently looking into the video.

We can think of worse ways to spend our time and let’s be honest, people always ask us did we do anything cool at the weekend and our answer is always the same…

But enough about our lives, check out the brilliant video below…
