Don't miss this event! Huge turnout every year and the freestyle at this event is INCREDIBLE. Relaxed fun event with a nice raffle. Bring anything from a 550 to a full comp freestyle ski. Everyone has a blast no matter what skill level!

I threw a message up on our ride group text about this event. Huge immediate positive response! A good-sized group from WNY may be headed your way. A few questions. Beach cart access? The water temp? (generally) Can you see the ride area from where you park? (Incase my wife comes with and it's cold out) Thank you!

Huuuuge beach are with a perfect view of everything. You pull up right at the beach area and cart down a small hill. She could park there for extended periods to watch but might have to move occasionally if the rangers say something. You can still see from the parking lot just not as well. Very easy access. I think water temp is 60s if I’m not mistaken. I’m very comfortable in a wet suit typically. The day can be chilly or warm that time of year but usually is pretty mild.

Looks like a great set up. Are charcoal grills allowed? Sorry about all the questions!

 

[Jcary85]

Sorta kinda. Technically not at the beach area. There’s a beach are 50 ft down where you can or a grassy area up behind the parking lot. That time of year they may not make a thing of it though.

And no worries about the questions. Happy to hear you may have a group coming!!! Gonna be a really fun time this year

Looking forward to this ride, it's not too far from me. I assume blasters and X-2s are ok to bring as well as stand ups?

Looking like a big turn out, water temps should be 55+
Cant wait to see some new ridder out there to kick off the season!
