I plan on living at the parents place on the lake in the summer

Way ahead of you on the wetsuit, I have a drysuit

BryceBell, I will be 800 km away.
Respect the spot.
We don't want that one to get wrecked for future endeavors.

BryceBell, its 3-4 ft drop right now, probably closer to 4, with a little bit of water trickling over the dam. I was actually there the other weekend for the first time... and to tell you the truth, that spot is a b*tch to pull out the rope, since there trees along the banks, you pretty much have to swim out the rope. I don't mean to discourage you in anyway, I'm just throwing the facts out so your not surprised after a 2 hr drive. The water is kinda disgusting, the river bottom is a black mud and smells nasty. I was thinkin it would almost b better if a canoe was brought, to row upstream instead of swimming. But once you get all set up and ready to go the drop is amazing. The bottom water level landing is approx 2.5-3 right below but gets deeper the further out. The house located right right beside the drop is the Baron family, i grew up with there son, there good people they won't bother you.

This spot is easier to pull the rope out and just as fun, but it is busier. There is even a metal fountain that sprays up, on the north side of the lake. I believe right not it's barely submerged, but often pokes just out of the water, so you can ollie over or do tricks. The north edge of the lake too offers an unreal concrete ledge just begging to get slid, bring some wax. Here the lake is deeper and cleaner.
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=regina&sll=50.719069,-104.856091&sspn=0.049016,0.15295&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Regina,+Division+No.+6,+Saskatchewan,+Canada&ll=50.435921,-104.613265&spn=0.003082,0.009559&t=h&z=17

The other week after the pasqua st. damn, my crew and i hit up this spot. Its located between the uni and conex center. Its approx waste deep, easy to walk the rope out and is often relatively well protected. The bottom is black mud as well. I was thinkin of bringing my TNT flat bar to push in and sesh here.
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=regina&sll=50.719069,-104.856091&sspn=0.049016,0.15295&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Regina,+Division+No.+6,+Saskatchewan,+Canada&ll=50.42405,-104.592805&spn=0.001541,0.00478&t=h&z=18

Then there's the north end lakes. They are cleaner than the other spots and are low key. I have yet to hit them up but its only a matter of time.
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=regina&sll=50.719069,-104.856091&sspn=0.049016,0.15295&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Regina,+Division+No.++6,+Saskatchewan,+Canada&t=h&ll=50.50079,-104.662199&spn=0.012311,0.038238&z=15

Then right by off-axis there is this gem. They are just finishing the landscaping and building a walk bridge over it, approx 2/3rs the way down the pond, perfect to put the winch on. I was just scouting out this location the other day and since the rain, the embankment is kinda muddy, but looks like a sick spot.


I'll be at Regina Beach building a garage at my cabin wit my dad on saturday, but would like to winch the main beach and push in my TNT flat bar sometime in mid after noon, when i can escape this Chinese free labour system, if you want to join?

price.dan, for a kicker surface and for our future builds there is a sign store on Macdonald just south of Park Street that you can get huge old signs from. The one I got a couple years ago was about 1/2 cm thick and 4 ft X 16 ft. I got it for a case of beer.

BryceBell, get some pics

The weather looks good for May Long.
I get to town on Thursday morning. I plan to head directly to the lake and get the dock in and then get the boat in the water right after lunch.
Friday I say we winch.
