steven what are you talking about? monday? do you live in washington or what? hey derik man i am in the same boat it has been hard to find anybody out here. today was the first time since i moved here that i have been on some water.

Hehe, IT'S WINTER and COLD! The boat doesn't even go back into the slip until April 1st. If you're availalable weekday mornings, we go allllll summer long. Weekends on any lake except for Roosevelt are jam packed, but on weekdays Saguaro, Bartlett and Pleasant are all good. Keep in touch, right Hahn!

good to see there are some riders out there to respond. i realize it's winter but i'm just looking to meet some people. i'm starting to really get the itch to ride. i'm down in Chandler. when i first moved back from Vegas i was going to Bartlett. I work on the weekends so i usually go on the weekdays, it's perfect. by the way my real name is Jason.

I'm going to take this opportunity to plug the Arizona Wakeboard Association. It is a great way to meet wakeboarders in the Phoenix area. Check out our website at www.theawa.com for event dates.

Jason, shoot me an email. The biggest problem we have is finding a third to go with us to Saguaro on weekdays. If yer available weekdays, we'd love to have you along.

are you talking about firebird raceway? if so i didn't know you could get on that lake. is it open to the public?

(solo) · (solo) **Join Date: Oct 2001** 02-07-2005, 1:39 PM

I don't think it's open to the public?

Oh great the day I dont go to firebird the infamous Steven Hahn shows up. If you ever want a pull Steve you could get my number for Larry and Gordy Taylor. My names Joseph Shipka by the way.

aram 02-07-2005, 11:28 PM

Firebird huh? I guess that clears up your public lake problem Hahn. Looks like you guys even had decent water.

(dbo) · (dbo) **Join Date: Feb 2004** 02-08-2005, 12:05 AM

is there any way of getting a ride out there then?

(gbgonzal138) · (gbgonzal138) **Join Date: Oct 2004** 02-08-2005, 5:48 AM

If you know somebody with a boat out there.

michaelvinczii 02-09-2005, 8:59 AM

Just wanted to say thank you to Joe and Joseph for the pull yesterday, sorry about the boat problems... and thanks to Steven Hahn and Brett Brinkerhoff for shooting film and the still shots. Cant wait to see them up.

(ivyrider) · (ivyrider) **Join Date: Jan 2004** 02-09-2005, 9:40 AM

yes, the reflection shots are aweosme!!! What was the air/water temps like?

reddog25cf 02-09-2005, 9:43 AM

That's my boy Mike.... been riding with him for a few years out here in IN, it's about time he's getting some exposure... all I can say to those people riding with him is PUSH HIM. He needs it... he's got the talent and the motivation, he just needs that little extra push.... Lovin' the pics...

(solo) · (solo) **Join Date: Oct 2001** 02-09-2005, 9:45 AM

Air 65 water 50. I'm glad you guys liked the shots. Unfortunately I'm going to stop posting them as I am compiling a gallery for a piece I'm writing on Firebird lake. So Phoenix area outlaw riders, if your interested in getting some shots and you know Brett Jimmy or Joe. Get out to the lake sometime in the next couple of weeks. I should be shooting a couple of days a week.

Steven

michaelvinczii 02-09-2005, 10:05 AM

Those shots look great Steven! Nice job!

(gbgonzal138) · (gbgonzal138) **Join Date: Oct 2004** 02-09-2005, 6:19 PM

Thanks for posting the pics Steve, we haven't got the boat to the shop yet but we will pretty soon. Century is getting prepared for their boat show, so it will take a little bit of time, I just want to know whats exactly wrong with it.
I gotta give Jimmy a call and see when he rides. Steve, if your ever out on someones boat and they need a third give me a call.

hey steve man hook me up with a ride some day. i am new to the area and just want to meet some new people and check out the scene. i am used to riding back home on the delta with some of those guys or out at lake sonoma with some great riders and i want to see what arizona is about.

(solo) · (solo) **Join Date: Oct 2001** 02-10-2005, 12:03 PM

I would have to say that after spending some time here in Arizona, that all the riders and people I've met are very cool. I'm impressed at the level of riding and the number of riders that ride well. It's encouraging to see all the younger guys out there pushing each other to do new stuff. As for hooking anyone up, I'm the wrong person to ask. There are a number of guys on this thread that ride here. Got some good stuff yesterday. But you'll have to wait for it.

Thanks everyone.

Steven
