Brownstone Exploration & Discovery Park Hosts Wakeboarding Event July 3 & 4

PORTLAND, Conn. – Sparks fly July 3 & 4 when Brownstone Exploration & Discovery Park hosts the 2010 Wakeboard Rail Jam. Professionals and amateurs hit the rails Fourth of July Weekend with the fastest, gravity defying moves ever seen in Connecticut.

Rail Jam Expects Record Crowds as Pros Hit the Rails
Freestyle wakeboarding is taking the nation by storm, and the pro riders will draw record crowds to watch wakeboarding taken to a whole new level. Rails, ramps and jumps of various sizes and heights bring wakeboarding to the forefront of all action sporting events.

Pro Teams Perform for Connecticut
On Saturday, pro riders including Liquid Force will be showing off their moves with ranked team boarders competing head-to-head in crazy competitions. Spectators and adventurers will be lining the quarry to see the action right here in Portland. Brownstone is psyched to present Rail Jam to the loyal quarry wakeboarders, as well as new action seekers looking to give it a try.

Jaw Drop Boarding Isn’t Just For The Pros
On Sunday, Brownstone’s Rail Jam gives beginners all the confidence, tips, advice and instruction to give the rails a spin.  All levels are welcome, as the Liquid Force Team will be available to offer insider tips, instruction, lessons and advice.

Booths with the latest wakeboarding gear and supplies from vendors like Oakley, Liquid Force and Body Glove will also be available to demo and purchase. Of course, all equipment is available to rent at Brownstone so come prepared with gear and guts, or bring nothing but a suit, the courage to learn, and Brownstone will provide the rest.

Visit Our Website To Register
Visit our website to participate in the competition. For your convenience we have three levels, Beginner, Amateur/Advanced or Professional Level. Choose your level and secure your place.

Become Brownstone’s 2010 “Top Dog” – Hot Dog Eating Contest

Don’t forget, the entire park is open Fourth of July weekend with great local bands playing throughout the weekend. Not into wakeboarding? How about swimming, hiking, kayaking, cliff jumping, zip lines or rock climbing?
