This print captures a truly daring moment in aquaplaning history. Taken on the 15th of September, 1925, at Lake Tahoe, California, it showcases one of the most difficult stunts ever attempted in this popular water sport. Mr. Brooks fearlessly defies gravity as he water-surfs upside down, showcasing his incredible skill and balance. The image portrays a vertical composition with a back view of Mr. Brooks suspended in mid-air while effortlessly gliding across the water's surface. His athletic prowess is evident as he flawlessly executes this challenging maneuver that leaves spectators awestruck.
