...and it's freezing f%^#ing cold! I want to go anyways, I already got the afternoon off. Right now here (Kansas City) it's 42 degrees and it will top out around 45 degrees. I Have a short sleeve 3/2 wetsuit. Do you guys think it will be adequate? I think the water may be as cold as 50 degrees
Crying or Very sad

Per Mike (owner) it was 60 degrees on Monday and while we've had some cold days, there's been a lot of sun. It's 54 now and will get to 58-59 and tomorrow will hit 68-70 but windy as hell. I will be riding regardless of water temp. Don't care! I need to ride. Very Happy

If anyone is going, look me up. I'll be the short fat guy with more boards than tricks. haha! I'm taking my wakeboard and all 3 skates yet I haven't hit any rails, can't do shuvs... I can ollie. That's about it. haha I'm such a poser.

Michael Manzer, I think that I met you at the cables. Did you have an Omen Revolt that the durasurf delamned on it's maiden voyage? I too had a Revolt. Just wondering.
I went to the park friday and got maybe a dozen pulls in before I decided that the water REALLY was cold... good times no matter what. I also rode brad's (golden) 40.5 SST. I think that the edge catches alot mor that the wooden decks. Great weight, but it doesn't have that nice deep concave that really locks your feet in...

I was there for a little while but didn't ride. The only skater I saw was on a Byerly 42. But i did leave around 2:30.

500 for anytime they're open. If you want a Memorial day through Labor day, weekday pass, it's only 300. I did that last year as I have mondays and tuesdays off but this year will probably be the full 500.

yeah man that was me. turns out that was just a skin leftover from the mold. called sleu and had all my worries eased. that board is still rockin strong but i'm a bigger fan of the bi level thing these days. that 40.5 is money under my twinkle toes. fav so far.
