Yup, I couldn't agree more. I'm with you. However, as I used to wakeboard frequently, wakeboarders often try to find the calmest spots on the lake. Some have regular spots to go to that are calmer than others. If it was a territorial thing in this regard, I'm going to be slightly biased towards the ski boat hunting for calm waters. I'm just trying to give another perspective as to why it might happen. This very well may not have been the case.
