Excellent bucket list check off
I’m a 66 year old female who used to slalom ski and wanted to know if I could do it again after 30 years. I saw McCormicks and said this is where I’m going. I recognized the name of being a top skier and thought they can get me there. So today I went and told my story of previously skiing and this was on my “bucket list”. Michael and Jamie were both welcoming along with their two adorable sons. Michael got me in my ski, let me try to get up the way I thought I used to, and when I didn’t make it, he gave me some suggestions and BOOM BABY! Another one checked off my list! I appreciate his easy approach and encouragement and I now want to come back weekly to perfect it. It’s such great exercise to go along cross training with my horse jumping. Check it out! This is an awesome hidden gem! Thanks so much for helping me reach my goal!

Cheaper than gas for your boat ! Fun for wake boarding!
McCormicks Cable Park is located just outside Tampa off i4 and Mango/Seffner after the Hard Rock Casino and the i75 interstate exit off a dirt road in the boonies off the beaten path. It looks a bit Redneck and rough with the dirt road and shabbily constructed office shack building for checking in but the actual cable park and ramps are top notch and all you need to have a good time! Wake boarding at McCormicks Cable Park costs $28 for a 2 hour cable pass, $3 for a helmet, $3 for a vest, $15 for a basic wakeboard, and $20 for a premium wake board. Beginner Cable Lessons cost $45 and include all rental gear (wake board, helmet, vest) while an Advanced Cable Lesson goes for $85 and also includes all the gear. Compared to the price of renting a boat and filling it with gas, McCormicks Cable Park is a steal and a great value! Plus you end up going slower than you would on a boat which makes it slightly easier because it allows you slightly more time to plant and land jumps with little to no outside wake. Most people will be tired from wake boarding after about 20 minutes so having 2 hours is nice for having a little break and going again. There's plenty of ramps at different angles for different style jumps and rails for different types of rail tricks! Every weekend the park switches up the positioning and order of the ramps and rails to provide a different experience for riders! I definitely recommend the beginner course if you've never been wake boarding before and the 2 hour pass as it's only $3 more than the 1 hour pass! I look forward to coming back again soon!

Pretty cool atmosphere
Went here the other day and it was a pretty cool place. We paid 50$ to rent helmet, west and board for two hours. I was a cool place with a lot of cool people. I would recomend the place though I must say the guy who was helping with the cable was a little ignorant and didn't really help the people.
