It has been brought up that a day for everyone to get together would be a great idea. Anybody have any good ideas?

Lakes with enough parking?
OWC?
The Glen just for a good time?

It would be a good time to get to try dif boards, get some dif pulls, and meet some new people.

Sounds fun - If everyone one go there early the Butler Chain, ride in the morning hangout on bird island in the afternoon then ride again in the afternoon.

the reason we never do anything like this in florida is because of the COPS!!!! oh and all the other dumb fuggers that like to extreme jet ski and inner tube on all the lakes. good luck though Wink

Another idea is I have a place to stay on the Suwannee River its a 2-1/2 hour drive from Orlando its a little house that only sleeps about 6 but its got a pretty good size yard so people can camp. The place is in the middle of nowhere I have never seen any cops the few people up there act like they have never even seen a wakeboard boat. The water is always glass and there is a cool sandbar about 3 miles up river. It would be cool to get a few boats and some ski's. I bring my wakesetter up there all of the time.

mergeleft3, do you want to head to Suwannee River Festival with me, i got a winch

Lets pick a place and give it a try. Is the purpose to skate or chill, winch/boat/pwc?
My vote is as follows:

Lake Dalhousie....30 miles North of Orlando, public ramp always has room, no cops

Butler Chain........without the cops or crowded ramps it would be ideal

Silver Glen......this works however the new no wake zones make it a pain

-LoGiK-, When is it?

I think it would be nice to ride and get to try out all dif boards.

Lake Conway isn't bad for parking either on week days.

-LoGiK-, I am not sure if I can swing that this soon but I would still like to take a trip up sometime this summer with some other wakeskaters to ride.
