The first one has Pete Peterson using his feet to turn the pow of a free-board completely to the rear, while being towed at over 50-miles per hour; the other performers include Bob Butts, who slides down the Ocean Park shoot-the-chutes standing up; “Windy” MacDonald, aided by a blimp speeds through the waves at over 50-miles-per-hour on one ski; and movie-stuntman Carey Loftin, who drives a motorcycle over the pier with Peterson following behind on skis. |
