CableStock 2007 - May 11-13 at Texas Ski Ranch  

$10 Grand in Total Prize Money

You’ve seen it in the videos, on TV, in the magazines and newspapers. Incredible athletes, suntans and bikinis gather on the hot sandy beaches at TSR to celebrate wakeboarding, music, and to kick off yet another South Texas summer season.

It’s Cablestock 2007 at TSR.

2007 marks the 5th Annual Cablestock festival at the Texas Ski Ranch. This year the cable events will go to the next level as the WWA (World Wakeboard Association) is sanctioning the cable wakeboard and wakeskate events as the first stop on the WWA Wake Park Series presented by Ten-80. This three day festival and competition will be held in true TSR fashion with great music, good friends and of course, all the action sports TSR has to offer.

The wakeboard competitions will be bigger and better than ever with three important events in one weekend. The inaugural Wake Park Series presented by Ten- 80 and sanctioned by the WWA will have cable divisions for Pro Men, Jr. Men, Women and Wakeskate. The Boat competitions, pulled by the world famous MasterCraft X-Star, will bring out the best of the best, as Texas riders qualify to compete along with your favorite wakeboarders for cash and prizes. TSR has added a third contest to highlight the most aggressive and impressive tricks and maneuvers the riders can pull off with a rail-only competition on the TSR Cable slider park. This intense contest puts six riders on the water simultaneously.  Each rider will attempt as many tricks as possible to amass points before they crash or are sent to the back of the line so that new athletes may join in. A continuous rotation of world class athletes, trying to outdo each other, should make this new event the most exciting twenty minutes ever hosted on the TSR cable.

Cablestock at TSR is more than just a competition. You can relax and enjoy the excitement for $10  per day for a special event park access pass. For those who choose to be part of the action but not compete, TSR is offering a 3-day cable wakeboard and skatepark pass for just $49.95. This includes all day sessions on the cable and anytime the skatepark is open throughout the weekend. Don’t have your own gear?  No worries, TSR has wake rentals available for beginners and experts alike. Add to this the live music, Coconutz Beachside Bar & Grill, TSR’s famous Cablestock Bikini Contest, and hordes of new friends, and you have the makings for the beach party of the season, and TSR’s biggest bash of the year.
