Sweeeeeet. You guys ever hit any of the lakes over here on the east side?

Once in a while, Banks or Roosevelt.

I'm usually at American, Washington, and occasionally Alder.

What about you?

I live in WA. Only been here for 4 months though, so I haven't ridden anywhere. If anyone wants to pull me or needs a third hit me up.

I live in Yakima. Pretty much south Central WA. Chelan is awesome. moses lake is a great spot. Lake Osoyoos on the border in Oroville and Osoyoos BC. The Columbia River where it goes throug hWenatchee. Lake Osullivan. I haven't even tried a wakeboard on yet, but im excited to try. I'll be watching Ebay for a good deal on a 143...

Shoot me a message or an email if you ever get over this way. If I am not partying at a otorcycle rally I will be on the lake.

WakeUpDead, I'm from the Tacoma/ Gig Harbor area (westside) but i love riding in Eastern Washington...Entiat, Beebe Bridge, pretty much anywhere on the Columbia river near Chelan is butter. Over here I ride Mason, American once and a while, Long Lake and Lake Washington once in a blue moon, usually horrible for riding unless u go early morning or dusk.

I have family all over Eastern WA, up and down the columbia from Tri-Cities to Canada. There are many, many glass-like lakes over here. Thanks to the Westside for taking the brunt of the weather before it gets over the mountains! SUCKAHS! =P

I ride at Clear Lake in Graham and on Lake Entiat a lot. Sometimes I ride Tapps. And I'll ride Lake Wash or Sammamish like once a year. I am always looking for people to ride with during the week, in the spring, at Clear Lake.

Eniat is awesome. I used to love the Hydro races there when I was young. They still do those up there?

We are in Oregon, but were at lake Mayfield on Labor day. I have to tell you, the water was cold, the idiots ruining the water just cruising up and down, and the PWC donor that nearly clothes lined himself on my nine year olds tow line, we will never be back. It was springsuit cold.

Wow, what a run on sentence.

boobybunny, I'm from Oregon here too! We usually get to Mayfield once a year and damn is that water chilly... I couldn't even swim in it!

CaM2816, its very close, it's an extremely small lake in shelton with a public boat launch. my friend has a lake house on it, and it's just about always glass

I'm from the frozen north, my wife's family is all over the state of Washington though. Last year we spent a week on the Columbia/Snake river in the Tri Cities area and I think that may be my new favorite place to board.

I haven't had any luck on Banks, I guess I don't know where to go there, it's a big lake. My wife grew up in the Moses Lake area so I've been there a couple of times, however she won't go in that lake. I've also spent a little time on Parks lake which is pretty tiny but great if there aren't any boats around. My brother in law used to live in Wenachee and he said the Columbia up there is fantastic, I've never boarded up there though. Now that I think of it, Washington has a ton of great lakes!

Where do you board in the Spokane area? Do you head over to Courdalene (sp?). We're heading down to run Bloomsday the first week in May. Are you guys boarding by then down there?

Tracker, Vancouver WA here! Very Happy

Been out riding yet this season?

Nope, I bought my boat in October and haven't use it yet! My main boarding partner just moved to Redmond so I'm looking for more people to ride with.

I don't see the draw for Mayfield. There are way closer spots in SW Washington than that with beautiful scenery, warm water and best of all no people!

Tracker,

What kind of boat did you buy and where do you ride? Doesn't Amboy have a private ski/wakeboard lake somewhere?

Malibu VLX- We ride at the lakes up Lewis River, the Willamete sometimes during the week & over by Bend/Sisters because I have a house over there. There is a private ski lake in Fargher Lake on the way out to Amboy..................
