welcome.

I was thinking of making a trip to Nebraska. I heard it was cool...what lake do you go wakeboarding at?

IrideLITE · Soul Rider Joined: 12 Feb 2008 Posts: 318

Ya nebraska is alright, a lot better in the summer, winter sucks!
but i usually just go to my local lake, Rockford, bout 10-15 minutes away, not a very big lake, but during the week and sometimes saturday, its like GLASS.
where your from rukus?

EDIT:
sometimes during the weekend we go up to Branched Oak or Pawnee lake up by Lincoln

Sup, this site will definetly help you in your wakeboarding. Dont worry about livin in Nebraska cause i live in Wisconsin and were getti by pretty well up here.

In the winter i would suggest skatin to get you through the winter itch. I know nebraska is pretty flat so snowboardin is outa the question.

Welcome IrideLITE, this place is full of good peeps.

This thread ought to be pinned to the top as an example of how to enter the forum. Props to you LITE.

IrideLITE · Soul Rider Joined: 12 Feb 2008 Posts: 318

LF-well...ive tried skating...and idk, but for some reason I dont really like it. And I keep myself busy most of the time with lifting/sprints for football as well as preseason track

jt-thanks, I had just thought since i was new to the site it would probably be a good idea to introduce myself. Smile
