Woodland: Velocity Island Park; things to do

755 N. East St., right off Hwy. 5, (530) 723-6885.  $34/2 hr.+.

Though cable parks are super popular in Europe, in California the trend is taking a while longer to catch on.  This cable wakeboard park is only California’s second.  Instead of a boat, an overhead cable system is used in Velocity Island Park to tow participants.  The man-made lake here is 8-feet deep in the middle and has plenty of smooth water.  Paddle boarding is available before the cable opens.  Rentals, packages, and lessons are available.  The Black Pearl cafe dispenses snacks and meals.
