Got the boat and Wolf Lakes in my back yard. Can ski the (course) buoy's anytime. the trails are more fun. Rule of thumb is the temperature drops 3 degrees per thousand and wed it is going to be 94 in fresno and 92 on thursday, thats 74 at 6000 ft.

I'm in with the boat idea. I say lets get a bunch from the forum with boats and those without and do a day on the lake. Need someone with a party barge though. Mine will seat 6 if we all wakeboard,4 if we ski. Tower racks will do 4 boards and 2 skis.
Come on Pat I know you have a boat....
Did I hijack this thread or what

Who me, boat :noidea:

That would be a tough trip for me for a day. It's like 4 hrs to Millerton from me towing the boat. Now if you want to come my way I can meet you at Castaic or Pyramid...I'll bring my wakeboard!

I don't do Millerton until after Labor day when everybody puts their stuff away for the season. We do Pine Flat EARLY to get the good water. Castaic or Pyramid is a haul. Where you at?

Thought about joining Wolf Lakes. I haven't ever skied a course, yet. Do love to slalom though!

Jethro1 · Jun 29, 2010

Slalom is a blast, and a great workout. My son has won the Nationals a couple years, he is a 36 mph skiier at 41 off. Im 34 at 32 off is my PB. We use to hit Hensley at 6 in the morning to get flat water but I've gotten spoiled skiing private lakes and havn't done any open water skiing in about ten years. I can arrange a tow if your interested, we have a wake board lake also with a few rails set up.

Aw Pine Flats! I remember the days of skiing that lake when it was full and you had your own man made salom course trying to avoid the driftwood. I live in Simi Valley, Ventura county.

I bet my fat ass couldn't couldn't even get up anymore. :cry:

It would be fun to try though. :thinking:

Well it's full this year! We've been here for two years and driftwood has never been a problem. Only problem is my wife can't quit using the tach for the speedo. 3200 rpm same as 32 mph right? NOT! :smirk:

Travace · Jun 30, 2010

something i have never had the chance to do but always wanted to is wakeboarding... wish some of you guys with boats were in the San Diego area.

This was way back in the 70s and early 80's. I have not been there since probably '89 when we took the old stand up jet skies there for the weekend.

I think so too!
I too have big HP in our boat. Mercruser Black Scorpion in a Gekko GTS20. If you can't get up behind that, it will remove your arms from their sockets!!!!

It's not the boat, or plank that would be the problem. :smirk:

It's the fat ass that would have to hold onto the rope, that worries me. :rolleyes:

I have some heavy duty zip ties, we can attach you to the rope, no worries. :devil:

Cool! In that case, if I can't get up, you all can take turns riding on me, like a big, fat, inner tube. :moon:

Edit: Bring on the "riding me" jokes.
