I have not been to strip in about 5 years now and wondering if the strip has changed much to with boat sizes and quanity? I noticed they are putting in 50-100 mobiles homes on BLM land up by Redrock?

Boats are bigger and so are the wakes. It can get hella rough on Saturday afternoons. Too many PWCs, and wakeboard boats. Weekdays are heavenly.

The boats are bigger, the wakes are bigger and there are more of them than 5 years ago.

I agree with the above.
We take both boats when we go,
On friday... it's the flat allllll day.
Sat and sun, we only use the
26 Nordic. And even that is small in
comparison.

It's rough on the weekends, but i think it makes it more fun. My boats real small, and i just hammer it over the wakes "if its not too crowded" It calms down real fast up where i am by the dam about an hour before sunset, so i go wakeboarding then.

I love it.. I dont mind the traffic and the rough water.. if its bad.. we just go to the sandbar or up to the Dam and float..
Speed runs happen at dusk and in the morning..
the one thing that really bumms me out is the PWC's ... Not all.. but most riders are clueless..

I remember in the late afternoons the races would start with all the flat bottoms and few hot jets. That was great to see the garage built boats going at it in the afternoons.
