Camsur Watersports Complex: My first wakeboarding experience

Bicol Trip!

After hours of journey from Cagsawa Ruins, through farmlands, mountains and breathtaking scenery of the region we finally arrived at CamSur.
 

We used the Starex Van for the 3 days bicol trip which owned by our friend and of course we have our fair share of  misfortunes.



    Good thing our driver kuya Ceasar the one wearing white shirt was able to fix it. Thanks God!

 Tuloy ang ligaya:)

 

Welcome to CamSur!

We are all excited for the wakeboarding but since we been on the road for hours we first had

our late lunch on thier own Clubhouse Restaurant & Bar

 

 Patay gutom mode na!

  Warning! Food Porn!

all prices are reasonable

Laing : traditional Bicolano dish of sautéed taro leaves in a spicy coconut milk sauce

Bicol Express: Pork strips with baby shrimps in a very spicy coconut cream sauce.

A Bicol Specialty!

Grilled lemon butter Tanigue served with rice

Pork Barbeque- Two sticks of barbecued pork served with java rice

 

After the sumptuous late lunch, gastronomic experience or whatever adjective perfect to describe it! One thing for sure! Happy tummy! We rested for a while and checked other amenities.

 

They have cabanas for rentals, swimming pool, game room, Spa: massage and free wifi! world class! ang bonggels!

 

This could be the reason why international competitions is being held here.

-1st wakeboarding Experience-

 

For the rates you can check this link: CWC. They can accommodate you either morning, afternoon or night all day. Check kayo ng bonggels kc mas mura sya pag di peak hours and they said it’s for 2 hours lang! dedmahin nyo! Hahaha…not true we stay for 4 hours more fun more sakit sa katawan! no additional charges!

You have to deposit P500+ Valid ID but it’s refundable upon return of the gear: vest and helmet baka uwi mo daw! souvenir:)

 

Clean rest room and they also offer lockers...No hassle!

  The Winch Park is for beginners and the strength is 30 which is slower that the main Cable

 Park pero kung feel mo umagaw ng eksena gow! I heard the strength of the cable pull is at 80!

 kalowka! buwis buhay!

Simplangers ang peg! and this cute little boy help me:) try again lang daw! go go lang!

 

For beginners, they said it's advisable first to try the knee-boarding pero  dahil iba ang level at akala mo di takot..hahaha. I jumped into standing position and after two fail at pag inum ng napaka  fresh na water..hahaha slimy water.... I was able to do it! You don't have to worry may briefing chiniz before you drink gallons of slimy waters..serioulsy they will teach you the right position of arms and legs in 5 minutes:)

 

But I was not scared at all, coz back in college days I do skimboarding every weekend since the beach is just a step away from home sa probinsya! At na miss ko tuloy ang ala California girl lifestyle ko echos! By the way skimboarding or skimming is you glide across the water’s surface it’s similar to surfing but it takes place near the shore.

Seriously we had fun, we spent 4 hours on the Winch Park and we only stop when our muscles

 felt numb. Braso kung braso! Feeling ko braso de Mercedes na!

then lounge at the pool since no extra charge kc naging friendship bond namin yong

guy sa counter GL lang labanan echos! For those who wakeboard free of charge pero kung nag pa sweet ka lang and you want to use the pool P100 will be charge..at true di na nag bayad ang 2 friendship ko..di na siningil...thanks Kuya:)

Ayan walang kapaguran! swimming gow!

Then at 10:00 pm we bid goodbye to CamSur with an aching big smile with all  the

physical activities, we badly need a hot shower to ease those muscles pain and good sleep.

 

But truely with all the adrenaline rush. I discovered the excitement and exhiliration of wakeboarding!

So my next plan is to visit the Republ1c Wakepark @ Nuvali: Sta Rosa Laguna!

 

And my only advice if your going to try wakeboarding:

If you fall, let go of the rope or you will get into all sorts of funny (for spectators)

and uncomfortable (for yourself) positions :). wag ng mag paka bayani!

 

And we hit back the road heading back to Naga:)

 

Life is Good!
