MANILA: Philippine conservationists hit out Sunday at a wakeskating "stunt" that took place at an ancient mountain rice terrace, accusing sponsors of exploiting the UNESCO World Heritage site.
Wakeskating is similar to the popular water sport wakeboarding but users are not bound to the board.
"I noticed that on the back of the bills here, you could see all these rice terraces and tonnes of water," Grubb says in the video, which was uploaded Thursday and already viewed over 241,000 times as of Sunday.
