This thread has been linked to the game 'Wakeboarding Unleashed'.
Just thought I would let you all know what my first impressions are. I don't think it is released until next week but I have got a copy for review from AceGamez. The game is so far living up to what I expected and its great fun to play. The most simple explanation is that it is a Tony Hawks Water Boarding game. The water effects are fantastic and the ripples are created in all directions depending on where your border moves.
There is a customisable soundtrack option which is handy as so far some of the trick events have lasted for quite a long time. Anything from a Tony Hawks game can be performed, even grinding and there is also an option to let go of the rope to do some tricks only to grab the rope back in mid air. Some of the stunts look fantastic and full credit goes to Activision on this one.
Overall I have been very impressed so far and its one for both GameCube owners and Xbox owners to keep their eyes on. I will let you know more as I play it further but for now I would say its a worthy purchase and a great introduction to extreme sports titles!
