I do a variety of water/lake related sports and activities. As you can tell from my name, I do like to wakeboard. I also ride my jet ski, go swimming, and just go on my boat and sit out in the lake.

During the winter I play ice hockey when my lake freezes over. I also ice fish when the ice gets thick enough.

I'm also into big trucks, so I like to go off roading a lot. I also enjoy watching NASCAR and NHRA Drag Racing.

I'm also currently restoring a 1979 Taylor Jet Boat with my dad and brother, so I've been doing a lot of work on that lately.

So yeah, I try and do that stuff between work and school.

Also moving to Social Discussion.

I buy, build, and then paint models. The game is basically called War Hammer 40k, and you buy squads of an army making your own team. There are about 20 armies in total I believe. You then proceed to build them up as dull grey models, and then paint them carefully. They are each about a inch tall so one unit would take a good 24 hours of work. Then you bring them back to the workshop of where you bought them at, and you can play these models as an army against friend or random people. There is also War Hammer: Lord Of The Rings, and normal War Hammer which is based for fantasy. War Hammer 40k is basically in the future where the whole universe has just war. These are some of my armies so far.

Warning both spoilers are big.

Tau Empire:

Based on long ranged combat, and their weakness is close combat.

On my free time I would go outside and practice some baseball with friends. But now that winter is around the corner that's out of the question. :(

If you seriously handpainted all of those, then you sir, are a badass.

As for me, I tend to just play video games like LoL, gmod, Guild wars 2, ect... However I like to get together with 5-6 friends and ply Magic the Gathering or go to tournaments for it.
