Traysurfing! FUN!

[Havegooda {A|R}]

Went out at around 1 and went traysurfing last night. Basically, you jack a serving tray for Subway or Taco Bell (whatever floats your boat), tie a rope to the back of a car/truck, and SURF! Pics of us in action below. Apologies for bad quality, iPhone doesn't work too well at night.

^^^ Setting up on a nice straightaway

^^^ Ryan was the first to actually pull off a "surf". We failed for a good 20 minutes before we got the technique down

^^^ Going at about 10 mph...

^^^ Here's me! I hit 15 mph on this run

^^^ Trust me, it's kinda freaky knowing you got about an inch of plastic between you and a bunch of asphalt...

^^^ Andrew got it down quick

^^^ VROOM!

^^^ Ryan hit the gas on Dominic's last run (tray was almost destroyed, fell apart at the end, lol), ending at a blistering 23 mph. I was barely able to snap a pic.

Then we went to the beach and started a bonfire with some cardboard and a dead bird. Poor thing. Got back around 3:30...I'm pooped.

~Gooda~

I'm all up for having a little fun... but a family friend of ours died doing that around four years ago....


Do NOT try this.

Yes Jacking a tray? Going on a tray and trusting it to hold you when a truck pulls you?

DONT DO THIS

Haha, Thats awesome

 

[Silent_Ninja]

You destroyed that board XD

 

[Rellik]

We've done stuff similar to this. Even me and my dad (though we used a quarter sheet of plywood)

but yeah i can see the potential for danger. But there is danger in all things.. So all i'm going to say is glad you had fun, and nobody got hurt.

 

[ManBearPig]

i wouldnt put my life on the line just to have fun...ive heard of too many people getting hurt or dying from that dumb stuff...no thanks

you got balls of steel my friend

 

[AWPerator]

I've seen someone do it with a couch on TV.

I've also seen friends do it on skateboards and such so they could hit a good speed for ramps.

I wish I could start a bonfire around here without anyone caring..

Those trays make great sleds for hills with snow.

 

[TwistedZ]

Iv seen this done with a couch lawl.... Iv also seen the couch and people get pulled over..LAWLMore.

Sounds fun... but risky

And for going down the slides at BurgerKing/McDonald's
Once me and my son were playing at BurgerKing and i was going through all the tubes and junk with him... and the manager came out. I thought he was going to tell me to not be playing in the PlayGround (which i was about to get ready to open up a can of Verbal-wh00pass (since i knew it was ok for me to play in there)) But instead he said "Hey next time you go down the slide sit on this tray" And he handed me one of the food trays. HOLY Crap i came flying out of the slide at like 60mph!

Sounds incredibly stupid, first of all, you are stealing which is against the law, secondly you are risking your life like that on for the sake of stupidity? Seriously...

 

[Havegooda {A|R}]

Ok, two things:

1. Not to belittle anyone's death (my condolences btw), but how do you DIE doing this? I can understand getting hurt (road rash, broken arm, etc), but actually DYING? I just can't see that happening unless the driver was doing 50 and swung the surfer off a cliff.

2. We asked if we could have the tray. We didn't steal it.

~Gooda~

 

[Carmine]

Basically, you jack a serving tray

Jacking and asking for something are two diffrent things...

 

[Havegooda {A|R}]

I use the term "jack" instead of "obtain".

~Gooda~
