How long of a session do you get for $20?

Might as well wakeboard behind a jet ski?

It's like 10 minutes man. And you're sharing the wave with like 4-6 other people, taking turns. So it's about $2.50 for every 30 second ride.

True, but we also promote safety and lessons. I welcome all new people to our sport but I just hope that they get lessons.

I went there in November 2007 to try on a vest harness. They only had 1 large vest harness, a board without straps and 3 different sized waroos on the top shelf (30 ft. up) next to the mountain bikes. It took the guy I talked to 30 min. to find the harness in the back, digging through boxes. I don't think they promote it very much if at all. Just letting you know.
