Idea's for next year

[DaUpJetSkier]

Ya there really isnt a better spot that I know of than claybanks, and its close to silver lake which is nice for gas and random things you may need, if anyone remembers from this past year I blew up a water box went to the hardware store to get pvc that was a bad idea then some galvanized steal, it was loud as hell but atleast I could ride a lil more.

Maybe one of us can persuade the campground owner to just be a lil more relaxed, its one weekend out of the year and we practically take it over, they should cater to us more.

I still would like to have a lil more going on at the event, like I said I can ride with a few ppl anytime I want why should I drive a couple hundred miles to do the same but see more ppl, I did meet a lot of cool ppl this year but it still seem segregated.

Wave Rave '08

Hey Yooper, sounds like it was boring at times. I live in Ludington and there are about six of us Stand up Riders that ride together. We knew nothing about the Wave Rave of 07. We heard about it after that weekend. We will be there this year....We live 10 min. from Lake Michigan and ride every Sun. afternoon & Wed. evenings all summer long....

Lundington is a great place to ride. short ride though the pier, no haters and if you wanna ride surf its a third of a mile till our out of the swim zone. and if anyone wants to rage on weekends there let me know. my crew is up there ALOT. infact i believe a couple of us rode with hangtime before. as for claybanks, im with him. i didnt heard about it till a couple days before. i think if we got more people involved earlier that way there is less people complaining about it being loud. but we should get somemore stuff going than just that ride.

Wave Rave 2008

I am in the printing business..I was thinking of some Hats & T-shirts and vinyl decals are no problem...I have a friend who owns the surf shop in Pentwater..He would donate some stuff like shorts, skim boards, rash guards, etc... So if there is some racing we could award winners with something. Does anyone know of a logo for Wave Rave 2008 ?? Do they just use the same one and change the date ??? I was talking to friends last night about another spot like Claybanks that was nearby, there is one in Ludington called Buttersville Campground, but I think it is stricter w/ more rules than Claybanks...

Wave Rave '08

Hey 02Octane, do you or your friends have a cabin near Hamlin Lake?? If so, I do remember you from this past summer..Did you have a light blue ski boat with an outboard???..and some hot girls with you.???

Thanks you for the ideas, we are keeping track of them. This years Wave Rave should be bigger and better than ever since this ride continues to grow in popularity. Keep in mind we are all volunteers that have full time jobs and families, so when we travel to Claybank Township meeting and call suppliers that is on our dime. An event this size can not happen without the townships appoval. Also this year we will be contacting a couple of you to be "Board Memebers" to share the load and help plan this event. So keep the idea's coming and think warm thoughts, it was 12 degress when I woke up this morning!

Take care, guys.

Bruins, are you the guy who was selling the shirts last year? Trying to get names and faces straight still.

Nope, that was Cybermob (Greg) I was selling the keychains. Greg will be involved with this years Wave Rave also, I'm sure.

This is great! Why not get some more vendor to donate then set up a daytona style raffle with all the proceeds going to charity (to be determined) or to rent the whole camp ground so we can be as loud as we want. Just a thought.

Kevin, we appreciate all that everyone does to make this event happen. It was the claybanks ride that got me totally addicted to jetskiing. I see this getting bigger and bigger every year. There are quite a few riders here in Michigan alone. Let us know what we can do to persuade the township and squeak in some more rowdyness. :439:

I would like to see a sickest trick type of exhibition. I could come up with some things for prizes and maybe some of the other vendors could throw in.

Sounds like a great idea, waves permitting, if it was flat we could do a best freestyle round. just get an air horn and a stopwatch. but you can't enter cuz your boat is just too light kyle.

BTW: nice avatar. missed ya in daytona

Lets keep it where it's at. Maybe we can set up a small bonfire or something on the beach and party down there so we don't disturb the campers....

I really think we should all reserve early and try to get the WHOLE CAMPGROUND to ourselves!

common UP u got to see your old ski that should have been enough for you lol.

there is a campground in ludington called Bittersweet it has kinda the same layout as claybanks but this campground doesnt care what the hell you do we go there fishing 2 times every summer and the last time we went there the owner of the campground got poopfaced with us we were loud and drunk all weekend but its up to you just a suggestion if you are interested heres there # 231-843-2114
adress:
991 S. Lakeshore Dr.
Ludington,MI
i think it would be a great location and we wont get hassled for anything
as far as rideing goes cause its kinda like the claybanks area its secluded
but as i stated its only a suggestion ill be there no matter where the location

 

[blaster4life]
