Good Afternoon Mate!!!
Well I am in Rio de Janeiro which you should visit too...
But as you are coming to São Paulo, I see no name better than MARRECO!!!
He is a real champion and he has a school in a dam called GUARAPIRANGA.
His email is marreco@wakenaveia.com.br
His website is www.marrecowake.com.br
I also have his mobile phone which is 11 8187 8072
Also, ask him to take you to Bertioga, it is in the coast great for wakeboarding!!!

Thanks Rafael, I have managed to get in touch with Marreco - the email address you gave me didn't work but I got him at this address: marreco@marrecowake.com.br I'm looking forward to going wakeboarding with him in SP. I have no plans to come to Rio just now but will look you up if I do in the future. Thanks again for your help!!

Answered by Rogeria Guimarães , Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
São Paulo has a lot of dams that you can do it, I have seen so many people do it.
Answered by TOURGUIDEINBRAZIL , Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
São Paulo has many places to practice the sports Guarapiranga in the southern city of Sao Paulo, is one of the most visited , even for those who want to learn, since it hosts some wakeboard schools but try Marreco the suggestion that Rafael gave you he is one of the best there .
