yeah its worth it. it get costly if you live right here and go alot but if your just in town for a few then you would be a fool not to go.

it just takes a little bit to get used to making the turns and not get snatched off your skate. i might come up there wed if i can get off work earlie enough.

I think it's way easier hitting rails behind a pwc.. for instance you can't adjust your speed behind cable and if you don't take the right edge toward the rail you're done. But it's def. alot of fun and worth the money,

twgapk,
season pass? Razz

Agreed.. Saturday nights are alot of fun there Mike Whitt is the man.
It's crazy how many people go there now.. back in the day it would be crowded if there were six or seven people in line Rolling Eyes

damn ive only been riding for 10 months so every time ive been there its pretty packed until about 11:15 then most of the younger riders have to leave to get home in time.

Yea, those turns are killer. Fortunately, I didn't have to worry about the turns too much from falling so much.
