Default Where can I go boarding?

I've recently started boarding. Well I got drunk one weekend and used the computer for a bit. A week later a wakeboard turned up :?: . I looked into why this large package had arrived at my door and discovered that I had bought it on Ebay the week before and hadn't remembered :idea: . Obviously I then had to try the sport out and I fell in love with it.

I live in Macclesfield, just south of Manchester, and I don't know where I can go or who to get in contact with. :roll:

Where do you recommend and who should I go with; or are there some really nice people out there who don't mind me tagging along when you go out? (Obviously I'm willing to pay my way, and I'm sure I'll throw a round of drinks in as well!) :lol:

Hey guys. There must be somewhere to board round here. Is Windermere the only place? In which case, who do you recommend going with?

If you go to windermere check out the Ski Shack
There is always Pine Lake, just outside Carnforth

Default Where to board

I suppose you've already spoke to your mates about whether any of them have access to a boat, but why not try to tag along with a group up at windermere for instance and offer petrol plus a bit towards costs. Most people would be glad of sharing the expense.

I board up at windermere and know that quite a few people would probably be up for it.

By the way, if you were drunk when you bought the board, have you had a disaster with it or is it cool, you never know what you'll end up with sometimes when you're drunk.

Good luck getting sorted.
