Wakeboarding in the DC area

Hi-

Just back from the UK where I learned how to wakeboard and I'm hooked! Can someone recommend a place in the DC area where I can continue to do this? I haven't been able to find a place that has all the equipment (boat, board, etc) where I can go and get a few sets in and practice/get better.

Thx!

shoot me an email, jburbo@gmail. i live in arlington, I travel to lake anna to ride on the weekends. its probably the best place to ride around here! I dont have a boat, but there is a great crew of people that ride down there. I dont know if they will have extra boards though....
I have an extra setup, but its probably too big(both the board and bindings)

hi Joe-

Thx much for the recommendation. Sounds like I probably need to invest in a board, etc if I'm going to go the Lake Anna route-i'm going to try this place in Woodbridge that someone else recommended to make sure I actually still like it

. I'm sure I will-I'm SO excited to go again-and if that works out and investing in a board is a good call, i'll follow up with you about where you go. Thx again-really appreciate the response.

Take care,

Emily
