Im looking into building one near the Denver area using Rixen's "Little BRO" system. Trying to get an idea of an interest level. Id like to get some responses from wakeboarders on the idea, and if you would use it.

THANKS

I'd use it in the winter. Summer is all boat though. I'm sure you'd get a lot of kids just getting into the sport, and snowbaorders who can't go in the summer.

I doubt an outdoor one would be possible in colorado with our crazy water laws

I figured with the pricing for a boat, fuel, insurance....an indoor park would be succesful in the summer there also. Not everyone has a boat, and a cable park lets you ride for a fraction of the price.

It would do well for sure, summer and winter! DO IT! ♥

Don't get me wrong, I think it'd do well here all year long. This place is filled with people who love board sports. I was just saying I am boat bound in the summer. The other big plus is that there aren't many good lakes around here either.

I would be into it, and I'm sure you could get a following with CU/DU/CSU/Metro students. I go to Boulder, and I would be down a couple times a week.

I live in Monroe, Washington. There is discussion of building an outdoor park here. I think that an indoor park would get a lot more use.

Shy not come a little more to the West. The City of Monroe, WA is interested in having a wake park. We have a small man- made lake where they want to locate it. I, and many others are against an outdoor park like this. Many reason besides just the ugly cable system. I am all for having an indoor one. I feel pretty confident that an indoor park would certainly gain momentum here. We have two national competitions in Monroe every year. Considering our weather, an indoor park would get much more use. Combining a wake park with a climbing wall, etc would work as well. Several years back the city hired a marketing firm to study branding for the city. They came up with an "Extreme Sports" brand.

Are you familiar with the pro-tour and Monroe, WA?

I meant "Why not come out west." My dog helped me send off my earlier post.

Unfortunately no. The building is no longer available, and now there are 2 cable parks within 1 hour of my house.
