LAW Summer Wake Series
Summer is here, the lakes are ready, and so is Lake Area Watersports! In the past year LAW, located in Melrose has completed an addition to their pro shop and have also successfully started selling World Record Towboats; Ski Nautiques. This summer is the start of a Summer Wake Series to motivate and celebrate the sport of Wakeboarding. The event was held at the Lake Hampton Bed and Breakfast located off Highway 301-7 miles south of Starke, FL. Sponsors included Asbury Independent, Liquid Force, Jet Pilot, Spy Optic, Straight Line, Cobian, The Real Estate Gallery, Corda-Roy’s, and WWA. There were ten divisions and thirty-four riders’ rode in the competition. Everyone was allowed two passes and two falls on their 1500 ft run between two buoys. There was also a slider for the more advanced riders. Great prizes were given to all division winners, including prize money for the pro shop. The next two Summer Wake Series events will also be held at the Hampton Bed and Breakfast on Saturday, July 14th and Saturday, August 11th. For each event, riders accumulate points and at the end of the series will be given additional prizes for the “end of the year tournament champions”. Each event registration starts @ 7:30AM and the first rider off the dock @ 9AM. On Saturday, June 30th, separate from the Summer Wake Series will be an additional event located at Gator Landing (181 S Hwy 17-East Palatka).
