Default Where can I ride at this chilly time?

I've just bought a new board and I've got very itchy feet to try it out.

The boat isn't going back on the water till April. I can't wait that long.

Is there anywhere I can board now? I fancy freezing something off.

Many thanks

wakeMK is all good, i rode there on sunday when i was home, some of the guys were wearing dry suits, but my friend and i went out in summer long suits, it was a wee bit chilly but we lasted about just over an hour, well worth it, grab your board and get down there.

I've never used a cable before. How different is it from being towed? I can't work out how you get started.
