Wakesurfing Rock Lake


A photo of me wake surfing Rock Lake, in Legendary Lake Mills, WI. Wake surfing has to be one of my favorite summer pass times. Having a large wake is essential to follow the boat without a tow rope. My brother Ryan is ready with the rope in hand just in case I drift too far behind the boat. Interesting note, according to one of the lake cops on Rock Lake, you do not need to wear a personal flotation device [PFD] while doing water sports as long as you are attached to a vessel [the boat] that has a PFD on board. The catch is that once you release the tow rope you are no longer connected to the boat and the surf board becomes your vessel. At that point, you do not need to wear a PFD, but need to be hanging onto one or have one stored on the surf board.

Our setup: we are running a Malibu Wakesetter with a Hyperlite Broadcast Wake Surf Board
