I figured I'd consolidate instead of posting a new thread every time. If you're headed to McCormick's, post here and meet up with other totally rad dudes and girl-dudes who are ready to shred.

mccormicks got a new incline and flatbar this past week. both are very wakeskate friendly, quite legit, and are both not far from the start. _________________ "it's just wakeskating, no one knows who you are............ except for maybe some kids on the internet" Nick Sloan |

The incline/flat are tons-o-fun. I felt like i was sticking a bit to the incline but I think I just need to carry more speed in to it. Never really hit one before (other than a super sketchy, way too steep home-made one) so I was concentrating on just figuring it out and not bein all fancy-like.
The flat is super long, like, almost like you get bored before you reach the end long... it's perfect.
OLLIES WAKE, I'm thinking about thursday after work depending on if they have extended the hours for daylight savings. I can't usually make it out there until 6 or so though with traffic and whatnot. |

OLLIES WAKE, The flatbar is def. super fun. It goes on forever no lie, and the incline is just a whole other story. I can't wait for the box with the kicker at the end! _________________ http://www.flickr.com/photos/nizzate/ |

I'm bad at estimating, but I'd say the flat bar is about infinity. |

When I was there in Jan. they said it was going to be 60'. But infinity sounds about right!
Oh and I will be down to visit at the end of May. Hope to see some of you guys out there! |

Hey all, I'm shooting to make it out there after work for the last hour or so. If all goes well and I get lucky with traffic, I should be rolling up about 6. |

Mccormicks was molested last night. Somebody snuck onto the property and cut one of the support cables late last night. One of the towers is now resting on the bottom of the lake bed. They are working hard to get the cable back up and running by next week. |
