It's a bit of a drive, but the guys at The Edge Kalamazoo do Wakeboard Wednesdays. It's like $10 and they ride until dark

Looks like you're going to be happy at school buddy. I can attest Alex being a great guy and even greater rider - so much style and amplitude. Have fun dude!

heck, roddyrod, if either of you want to come out get a hold of me any time. Season is getting short up here, so times a wastin... I'm on a lake a little east of GR, so it's not like it's right around the corner, but we have fun. Steve (guy who runs the GVSU ski team) works with me and he needs to come out as well. after labor day the lake really empties out so there are really no other boats on the lake. as long as the weather is good. otherwise karls place is pretty close to campus.

I go to State and unfortunately don't think there's much water or people that ride around here so if you guys ever got any extra room for another rider, I'm willing to drive a decent ways and would greatly appreciate a pull

There is a good wakeboarding scene in Allendale and nearby. You can ride your bike to three great areas where many people wakeboard. On the bus, you can get to Reeds Lake, another place to ride.

yes, too new for google maps. Aerial photos on the website, however. My X-2 is up for sale and being demo'ed right now. I have a 214 for the next couple of days. I'll see if it sells.
