About
Our riding area is the largest offered by any rental company on Lake Erie. Ride up to five miles from the break wall in Vermilion in all directions. We require riders remain at least 300 feet from the shore at all times. A member of our staff on a separate "chase ski" remains in the ride area for the duration of your rental period. Their job is to act as a lifeguard should you need assistance getting back on your ski in the event of a fall, keep track of time remaining on your rental, and provide a line of communication back to shore.
