SPBFan & Da.Bell Meeting

[SPBFAN]

It doesn't need to be a full bore Tige Reunion, but more just hanging out for the day or weekend.

That is funny. I was talking about the same thing on the way home today with my wife. We should do it somewhere in central CA. so everyone can come. Milerton Lake in Fresno would be good this way the boys from way up NOR CAL like RAGBOY and fam can come. Bakersfield is a little two south. and BV is a small lake to have a bunch of boats on. I don't know that BV would be a good lake depending on the amount of boats we would have coming though. But Milerton is a very large lake in Fresno it is about a four hour drive for the LA boys two or three for the Sac boys and about 4.5 for the WAKE9.COM Crew. We could very well pull this off by the end of the season if we went into early October with it. Make it just a fun event go out and have fun putting faces to names. We do not require a dealer to get involved in it.

BV wouldn't work because it is too shallow. Need 20 ft for a good wake. But I would def be open to it. Would be fun.

Not to mentions it is a 7-8 hour haul for you. That is why I was thinking Milerton.

SPBFAN and his family are some of the nicest people you will ever meet! They were very gracious hosts when we were out in Bakersfield for last years INT US Championships.

Thanks for sharing those pics!

Thanks Dogbert the same goes for you when I came to Austin. You and your family were great host and a lot of fun to be around.

That would be great but I don't know how much water there will be by the time this would be organized. IMO, next boating season would be okay but again, there isn't a Tige dealership that will be open from what I understand. So they wouldn't be able to do too much.

Hey I was told that Mossdale Boats in Lathrop is carrying Tige' now.They are about 45 min-1 hour from Sac.

That would be putting it to far North for the southern TO members. I would want to keep it no further North than Fresno. It is a 4 and is some cases a 5 hour drive for the southern boys to get to Fresno. I really do not see why there needs to be a TIGE dealer involved to set up the event. It always seem to cost them more than they make off the deal and in these economic times that is a lot to ask for. We could invite them and let them know we are doing it but I don't think we should ask for them to sponsor it especially when they probably did not sell over half the boats that will be a the event.

Date: Wednesday, August 19 2009.
Time: 4 pm
Location: Folsom Lake
Conditions: SUCKED!!!! But it was still better than work

The wind was kicking towards the end from the WSW and rotated to the S. Right before we got off the water, I would say it was kicking about 12-14 mph.

Nice pics. Glad you were able to get in, maybe another week or two at Folsom and thats it! Pretty sad we have such a huge lake and we have to be done boating by end of August. Down to the river i guess.

Yes, Sean Cummings told me that, and was looking to get a tige demo.

I don't know what the conditions are like down there, or at millerton, but they are beautiful at oroville. By october the ramps will be mud at bidwell, and lime saddle closed.

I am open to millerton. Actually grew up going to that lake, I learned to waterski at that lake when I was 12.

I have told my kids about the Millerton Monster. Is the Millerton Monster still a legend at that lake?

Better than early July like last year. Bought a pass last year, couldn't use it. Didn't buy a pass this year and we haven't gone anywhere but Folsom.

Have you ever seen good conditions on Folsom? If you guys ever come up this way, I work a block away from Discovery park and am always willing to take off work on short notice.

[da.bell]

hahaha, I live 15 minutes away from Folsom Lake. Yes, I have seen good water out there.. Um..... 6 AM..

We do hit the river every once in awhile and looks like we will be hitting the river up shortly. It's just easier to get to folsom at 4 pm. Now if it was noon time, we would have been on the river.
