Hey, i ride in Quebec Canada but i know a couple lakes u could ride on back home. There's a lake in Brookfield Connecticut that's about 2 hours from the city and i think there are a few places on long island where u can wakeboard and i think the hamptons might even have wakeboarding if ur willing to drive all the way there. Anyway, do u have ur own boat or are you looking for a waterski center to go to?

I'm looking for a watersport center.
I tried few of them in NJ or Long Island but the water was really bumpy.

I live in Manhattan and I'm looking for a ride. Anyone have a boat? Ooo, plus I work at Paragon which is the only store in NYC to sell wakeboards. The selection sucks though...a 2001 Trip 33.5 for $215??? Give me a break.

You can find some stuff at New York Pipe Dream... At least they have 2004 product.
The best is still on line

Check out the guys at Island Water Sports. Rumor has it that they are building a state of the art man made facility!!!

I think most of the boarders in NY ride in the sewers with the gators. Smooth water there.

Sorry, couldn't resist.
