Flowrider is ok.....I was reading about that resort that Ron Johns is building in Orlando, there was talk about now building more of them around the US, and some in Canada. I am excited for that.....

Then again, nothing beats just nice warm water and perfect waves.....man I wish I could go to CR....dam kitey
