👍👍 My girls and I had a great time. Damien was awesome and he provides life jackets. He also takes photos of your time on the water and airdrops them to you after the event.

😐 Used to like coming here a lot for heavy weights and peaceful vibe but lately the vibe is very different and trippy making it more cardio focused than heavy weights so I can no longer do my workout safely here.
