It's technically called wakeskating, which is done using a slightly curved, oversized skateboard deck with some type of grip tape and no trucks or wheels of course. You wear skate shoes while riding for a little added traction. Guys these days are doing mind-boggling tricks.
You wouldn't believe what a guy named Reed Hanson is doing on his skate riding at home on his cable system setup he calls "Battle Falls". Check him out if you'd like at https://www.facebook.com/reed.hansen.56/
