I new to wakeboarding and was wondering where the best place in knoxville was to go and park, to watch and try to learn. I noticed a lot of people on here are from Knoxville and hopefully can give a newby some cool locations to check out.

Friday nights at Sequoyah Marina on norris lake, they have wing night. There are a bunch of people that come out and eat wings. If you get there from 5 to 5:30 and come upstairs to mission boarding co, we usually go out and ride for a couple of hours and then come back and eat wings. Just come upstairs and tell us that you read this on wakeboarder and will go ride.

Gwakesetter, I may try to make it up there this Friday. I have your # so I'll holla at you if I can make it.

As far as hangouts go, there isn't one real good place to go watch people board. I see a ton of boarders on Ft. Loudon out around Lenoir City park, lately Jeff House has been riding out there alot cause his rent's live out there. Always cool to watch him ride.

I think the fact that there ISN'T one good place to go watch is a good thing. We just have enough good water to spread out and have a jolly ole' time Smile

I live of Ebineezer and will usually be in the Turkey Creek area. My plans are a couple of nights during the week and on Sunday and Monday. Weather permitting of course. Hey, is it possible to put in at Carl Cowen and get to the Turkey Creek area, or is there a better place to put in at?
