“Dad,” the young boy said, his face knotted in a serious expression, “This is the best place I’ve ever been in my life.”
He was talking about the family-friendly Orlando Watersports Complex where – whether it’s on the cable or behind the boat – you can:
• wakeboard
• wakeskate
• water ski
• kneeboard
OWC features two lakes with cable systems, plus a lake for boating. One lake is for novices. You can be a first-timer and still have an experience as fine as a Florida morning. You may wipe out a few times and your arms may be singing the blues the next day, but the wipeouts don’t hurt (much) and the learning curve is steep.
The second lake is called the “slider park.” It features awe-inspiring obstacles called “sliders and kickers.” You can awe at the advanced wakeboarders perform stunts while you eat lunch – or join them, if you’re a hotshot.
