Yea, TSR is a counter clockwise cable but really it doesn't mater. Regular footers can pop to the inside and goofers can pop to the outside. You don't have to use a corner to pop. The good thing is that if you can throw raleys switch on the kite, you'll definitely be able to do them on the cable. The best thing is not having to stress about wind or how long you get to ride. I think TSR has a camp ground too... Either way, I know the owners and we could probably organize some camping on the grounds if we needed.

I'm in.. If I can swing the timing!

If we can plan ahead enough so I know where and when, I can also probably pull some Liquid Force strings... both for access and equipment.

Some SICK new LF wakeboards using the same new wood/foam stringer flex cores and grind bases as the LF Influence and Concept DLX Grind kiteboards will have.

They have a FLX, an Ennen Hybrid and a new Watson Hybrid.

Taking flexible/press/rebound energy boards to the next level with proven LF bottom shapes. (on the Ennen and Watson, FLX is pretty flat, but I don't have pics of those others)

The FLX in this shot is similar in shape to the Influence but with a wake rocker and few other design bits.

You can really see the new cores in this shot... looking through the topsheet you see a PVC core with wooden stringers in the center and on the rails. This is the same new LF core technology that will be in the Influence, Concept DLX, Kaos and Lowrider Kiteboards, and will be even softer for pressing in the Grind base Influence and DLX, with 2 wooden stringers, rather than 3.

Nice! Would be sweet to have the LF red carpet treatment and have access to some sweet wakeboards!

There isn't an official campground @ TSR but there are always RV's back near the moto track.

Ya'll are all welcome in Austin. We're riding behind a 2010 Malibu LSV and can line up some pulls...

As long as you can handle hot southern belles in bikini's

Damn dude, we feel your pain. We quit mid October and it doesn't go again until April.

A big part of planning this trip is the freedom to not bring your gear and wonder if it's going to be windy.

is TSR setup goofy..?


Of the 8 cables in the US, all are setup goofy except McCormick's in Tampa, FL.

McCormick's has on-site accommodations and an RV park too. I imagine they'd let you set up tents. Give em a call...
