Sorry I didnt get any extra shirts. However, if everything works out good at the ride this year, we can do it bigger and better next year.

See you Friday!

I talked to Steve ( one of the owners) for about an hour, twice. He has a sxi he's all excited about. And he said he just bought a surfboard with a 250cc motor in it. Haha. This is gonna be EPIC.

BAD NEWS: DNR did not approve our permit to break the 150' from other boats, however they did approve our event (not sure we really need it but I guess thats good). So no Vwake with boats. We have several 3 seater sit downs going up with us so we will have to load them up and Vwake off the couches. Ill post up the times this evening.

My parents have been up every weekend to the campground. They told me about his surf board. He might be as excited as we all our!

Riding Times:

11-1215= Flatwater riding

1215-2= Meet on Sandbar for Tshirts. Eat lunch and refuel skis. Ill have a Blue Easy up canopy set up and a Torch Lake Freeride banner (look for the skis or Girls in Pink Shirts)

2-3= Vwake from sit downs

3-4=
break

4-5=
Boat wake in green riding section. We dont have permission to break the 150' rule so we will have to be on the look out for the law enforcement.

5-530=
if you have a go pro we will be able to take your footage so seem me before you leave, Ill let you know where but probably at the cabin I am at (right by launch)

These times are tentative, by no means do you have to follow the ride times. The Times are just for filming.

Also if you are up on Friday evening, We will probably do a meet and greet type of deal at the campgrounds.



Note: Thread also got moved to the Freeride tour so Sub threads are now allowed.

Is this schedule for Saturday only? Is there a schedule for Friday and/or Sunday?

SpaceCowboy and I just booked a site at the campground, seems that's where the action's going to be! The guy I talked to on the phone said they were all booked up, but when I mentioned Jet Ski's, he said we'll find a spot for ya. They seem excited about it.

Our current group looks like Myself, my Fiance, SpaceCowboy, his girlfriend, and her roommate. We'll be hauling 4 X2's up.

Mikey B and I will be heading up Friday and are hoping that we get there in time that we can drop the skis in the water and get a little bit of riding in Friday evening. Cant wait!!!

I'll be up Friday, as early as possible. I still need to tune my ski, we ran into a few issue this season and Friday will be my first fire up of the season on my Jetworks motor.
