Good variety. Darrell spent a lot of time with me to educate me about the different boards and ensuring I got the right one for me

Great instructor! I tried wakeboarding before and couldn’t get up on the board. Daryl was such a great teacher, and I got up and actually stayed up! I would highly recommend taking a wakeboarding lesson with IcyWakes

Everything from making the reservation to the instructor were first class. My grandkids had the time of their lives and tried both wake boarding and durfing.

My family was in Lake Norman for vacation and we decided to try wakeboarding for the first time. We walked in to the store to get some information and they were very friendly and able to book us very last minute, which we were extremely thankful for. Our lesson with Daryl was great!! He taught us all the wakeboarding basics and we all had plenty of practice in the water. I highly recommend this shop for lessons!

This place is amazing.I asked around at several other locations regarding hardware for my wakeboard bindings. Nobody was able to help me. I heard of IcyWakes Surf Shop.I went there. Daryl, an amazing dude, was able to point me in the right direction. Hooked me up with the stuff I needed to get back on the lake. Thank you!!

We did a lesson with Daryl to practice docking and driving and he was wonderful! He explained everything thoroughly and was patient and encouraging with all 3 of us. I believe I can speak for everyone in our party when I say he helped us to feel more confident and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to brush up on driving and docking skills!

My 10 Year old son attended wake surf/board camp this past week. He had the best time! Will and Kristin were so friendly and welcoming! My son was so excited to learn some new wakeboarding tricks as well as become confident surfing, as that was new for him! I would absolutely recommend this camp for anyone wanting to learn and or learn new skills! All of the gear is top notch! The boat is top-of-the-line and the instructors were incredible!

Our 3 children (7, 10 and 12 years old) did four days of camp and just loved it! The were absolute beginners and all managed to get up on the first day and made great progress wake boarding and wake surfing over the 4 days. Great organization by Jammi from IcyWakes who was really helpful. The instructors were great, really nice, always encouraging and also challenged them a bit. They offered great advice. The kids really enjoyed the experience and will continue both wake boarding and wake surfing. Thanks for the great photos and videos! They had a photographer on board most days. I recommend this to any skill level. We certainly loved it and are definitely coming back next year. Thanks IcyWakes!

IcyWakes was a stellar experience for my family and me. Daryl was super patient and was an amazing guide. He taught us everything we know (literally). My 11 year old was super scared and the attention and reassurance he gave her was incredible and the reason she was able to be brave and have an amazing first run. Great work IcyWakes. We’ll definitely be back!

Daryl did an exceptional job with the wakeboard lessons. The kids all had a fantastic time, and they learned a lot. He took a group of shy, reserved teenagers and had them laughing, cheering, smiling, etc. The sessions were more than we could have hoped for. Those who had never wakeboarded in the past were able to get up, and those who had experience learned new skills. We could not be happier, and we will be back again for more soon.

Very fun experience. Took a private lesson to wakeboard and learned to wakesurf, the boat has amazing to technology to make wakeboarding and surfing so much easier and a blast. Definitely want to book more lessons with Wil to keep progressing. Highly recommend.
