How long are you going to be in Austin?

more info? Keep in mind I'm really new to the area. I know where New Braunfels is... but do I just show up and anyone would pull me? I don't want to look like a wierdo. ha! Thanks for the info!

Just go south on I-35 and take exit 195, cross over the overpass and turn right onto the service road. Be careful about the exit ramp because they have the right of way, but you should see it on your left.

Unfortunately I don't have my board- all my gear is still in Phoenix. I'm just looking for a day on the lake. I'll definitely check that place out though. Thanks!

I live here now. Just waiting on my wife and kids to finish out the school year in PHX- then they'll be here with me.

You can rent boards. They also have demos if you think you're in the market for one.

It's a fun place to go. They have a bar & grill there and live music on weekends. We go there quite a bit because my son does competitions down there.

2nd on that... also, go talk to the guys at the ski dock and introduce yourself to charlie- he's the service manager.

If you're looking for a fix, hit up TSR. They have a SICK new wall slider on the cable lake. you can rent their boards, vests, and helmets.

If you havent tried a cable lake, I highly recommend it. The fees I believe are $10/hr on average. When you figure the amount of riding time and how much it would cost to run your boat for the equivalent amount of time, this is more than reasonable.

I've done a 4 hour pass (8-midnight on summer weekend nights), riding for 2 hours until I cant hold on any longer, then taking a break and going back out. seriously... your hands give out before the rest of your body does.

Sweet! Thanks... I'll definitely check it out. Thanks for the info!

[Ruune]

you're welcome. Also, a lot of us on 360wakeboard.com ride street bikes and/or motocross. If you're interested in that, check out the 360 bikes forum on the same site.

Oh... forgot to mention www.texaswakeboarders.com. This site is basically an "all Texas" wakeboarding site, but most people on there are from San Antonio, Corpus Christi, or somewhere in-between.

my boy does BMX so I'll definitely check that out! Thanks again!

[Matt Garcia]

If you wanna make the 4 hour drive to Texoma I'll meet you there....lol.

Isn't Matt from Austin?... or is he from the Metroplex?

Dallas area.

This is what is sitting in AZ not being used. I miss my boat!!!

Man that is a cool boat because its different and you wont see another one like that. I dig it.
