Doing Our Thing - 2016 Lakeside Watersports Video
Every year we push ourselves to find creative ways to highlight the unique experiences that we provide on Candlewood Lake in Danbury, CT. This year we decided to take it to the skies. With the help of Vinny from Flying Films NY, we were able to capture a bird's eye view of what it looks like to drop the boats in and to get out riding for the first time this season. Shout out to the Lakeside staff for braving a chilly morning, the footage was totally worth it.
Watch Our Short Film, ‘Lakeside Living’
We decided to shoot a promotional video for Lakeside as we headed into our second season. You could say it got a little out of hand... Pro wakeboarders, slalom skiing, paddlesurfing, cliff jumping and helicopters. Yes, helicopters. Our promotional video really morphed into a short film. Here is the final edit of what we call "Lakeside Living." We did our best to make the filming of "Lakeside Living" a community event. It features riding from our sponsored athletes, original music by local artist, "Nonymous," just about every one of our friends, and was filmed and edited by a local up-and-coming studio. This video is one of the things we are most proud of as a team at Lakeside. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Candlewood Cup 2016
So we have toyed around with the idea of bringing a contest back to Candlewood Lake for years now, but we just didn't have the time to bring it to life the way that it deserved. Enter Lakeside Employee, Ryan Dunn, and Lakeside Customer, Anne Goodnow. The two of them saw the opportunity and made it happen in August 2016 with the first Annual Wakeboard and Wakesurf Competition on Candlewood Lake. This INT League Contest had competitors of all ages and abilities levels. Check out some of the highlights of the tricks that we stomped. Special shout out to Lakeside Driver, Connor Kostyra who took first place in the Advanced Men's Wakeboard division.
Brownstone Comes To Lakeside
Our friends from Brownstone Wake Park came down from Portland, CT for some fun behind the boat. Check out the wakeboarding skills that these guys were showing off all over Candlewood.
