This S#!t is starting to piss me off. We're 15 degress below average in Michigan and that doesn't look like its going to be changing anytime soon.

Last year around this time it was 70 degrees!! this 30 degree weather isn't cuttin it.

I took my first set behind the boat on March 17 of last year. The air was 68 and the water 50-52 I believe (this was in Michigan). I'm now in Cincinnati and it doesn't look like we'll be getting any riding in for at least another month.

Snowboarding is great and all, but if you're like me, and didn't grow up snowboarding; it can only replace wakeboarding for so long before you finally go nuts.

BrtnDan, you're in GR aren't you? Some of my friends up in GR said they got hit by a gnarly snow storm a few days back.

You are in Cincinnati, what the hell can you do that simulates some type of "riding" in the wintertime?

BartnDan, one of my best snowboarding trips was at Boyne Mountain up in Michigan, I have to go up to New York to do get some decent snowboarding in.

I go back up to Michigan and Snowboard; I've only been living in Cincinnati for ~3 months.

So, what in the hell I do to simulate "riding" is go back up to Michigan (where I lived for the past 10 years) and Snowboard.

I live in the Upper Peninsula in Michgian and this has been one of the coldest springs we have had in a long long time. It was finally getting warmer we had a week straight of high 60s to in the 70s(that is absolutely beautiful weather here) and then yesterday happened. It SNOWED!!!!! Not even just where it melts as it hit the ground. We got a few inches of snow that stuck and is still here today. I dont mind winter because I snowboard but this is killing me, I need that water to warm up!

Summer seems to have just started.. It has been a super slow start to the new year. I don't think we have seen it this slow so far into May than ever in the 10 years we have been doing boardstop.

It dipped down into the mid 30's here over the weekend. I was hoping to take the boat out before I went to The Boarding school at the end of May, but that doesn't look like it's going to happen.
