yeah, parks has done a few cuz he is a crazy mofo, and i believe philip soven has also... correct me if im wrong.

the real question is, has anybody done one without the help of a double up?

dunno if it's possible, all the doubles i've seen have barely made it with the double up so i think a normal wake wouldn't get you high enough, just like doing a double rodeo off a 30 ft jump as opposed to like a 70 ft jump

I've got a video where they throw them behind a yacht. And by yacht I only mean a big ass boat that's clearly not a ski boat.

 Not really. With an experienced driver and a couple of tumble turns under your belt, it's just a mater of technique, NOT strength. But if it was strength based, shapiro could still do it. Twice as wide as he is tall.
