I was in south haven all last week and started talking to a kid at the local boardshop who was all excited because his parents are putting in a cable park soon. He said they are ordering the parts and construction of it from germany and are looking for a location now. I don't know how long this stuff takes but he said it's definately going to happen in the next few years. BTW south haven is on lake michigan close to indiana.

Nice the midwest is doing it right, WI is getting one in a couple years at the Mastercraft Museum/Pleasent Prairie tournament lake complex.

Congrats to yall!

I dont know anything about these people, but I do know the reason there are not more people building cable parks is due to lack of money and realestate.

Before I started to build ours, I heard tons of people saying they were bulding one, but they just couldnt find the right place.

I really do hope the guys in South Haven already have property or have some in mind...
And congratulations to all of you who will be near by!

but rock on if it still happens

Jonny, your right.

It actually does go land, lake then you measure the outside of the lake out and send it to the Germany guys and they send you pricing and then they come out and build...

Is there one german company that does the design for these park systems? Are OWC and TSR running the same type systems does anyone know?

We are hoping to open by October at the earliest...

Right now we have everything done that we can do and we are waiting on the Cable Constructors from Germany!

In the southern parts of both states you can ride at least 8 months of the year, as long as you dont mind the cold water.

Unfortunately the one in wisconsin is going to be more north, but all the waterparks that are in wisconsin(wisconsin dells is the waterpark capitol of north america) seem to make it work, and they are in midstate!

TSR is open all year except december and I ride every damn month it's open. If you don't fall you can coast to the shore and not even get wet.

Danny, did you guys put an island in the lake? I can't tell from the pics on your site. Is it full yet? That's a sweet pic of Josh Rice right below the "wake" on your website.
