Yup – that’s right, 3 ways to win a truck load of gear. In the month of March, we are serving up Andrew Adkison, Gabe Lucas, and Clay Fletcher’s rides for you to score! It’s easy. Click on the riders pics below and fill out the forms. That’s it! No gimmicks, games, or spending a half of a day making a podcast. A podcast you say? We know you’re busy! Some companies like you to make silly videos about their products to win stuff. I guess they don’t have the time to make videos themselves. We have lots of videos. We make all our own videos w/ our pro riders, so you don’t have to. But I regress.
In case you want to watch a video about the products we are giving away, I’ve posted them for your viewing pleasure.
Gabe Lucas – Vibe 142 w/ Answers
Andrew Adkison – Transcend 138 w/ AA
Ok – I lied, Andrew’s clinic isn’t done yet, you can blame Steve Bates for that. But here is Andrew being funny which is more interesting to watch than this podcast.

Perhaps the greatest idea ever for a poster was unveiled last week by Andrew Adkison. The excitement is contagious. Stay tuned.

I’ve been spending much time in Winter Haven the last few days riding with the CWB crew to get ready for Worlds and to get some shots for the upcoming episodes of CWB TV. We have been logging tons of water time and footage. Some innovative, some ridiculous, but all of it fun. On Monday Matt Manzari and Stu Shinn joined us for a wake skate demo. They were actually just free riding but it might as well have been a Demo because we were all impressed. I neglected to bring my good camera along when Manzari was riding but managed to get this pic on my iPhone. Honestly the best riding iPhone shot I’ve taken. Enjoy and more to come.

Zane and I are going on a date right now in Lake Tahoe. A double date with our respective babes that is. I’ve been to Reno 10+ times and never made the hour drive. It’s a pretty impressive area. Also this is Iris’s first time to California. That’s my wife BTW.
Tomorrow is the qualifing round of the 5th and final MasterCraft Pro tour stop in Reno. Will keep you posted.

Nick Jones, myself and a few others had an amazing session at the McCormicks cable today. A.K.A Tampa Cable. It was suprisingly slow today so we never had to wait in line. A massive thunder storm rolled through half way through the day. We waited it out and enjoyed perfect conditions after it passed through.
Tevin who operates and manages at the cable kept it open after hours for us to do some solo sessions. We each took turns riding the cable by ourselves in glassy water. Also when we fell trying new stuff there was an extra rope behind us for a quick pick up. It was an awesome time had by all. I’m going back Thursday for another session. Enjoy the photos. All taken from my Iphone.

I’ve been in Kaohsiung, Taiwan for the past week for the World Games. It has been a seriously impressive production. The city has put 8 years and $200,000,000+ into a 7 day sporting event. They were kind enough to have wakeboarding along for the ride. We just finished up the closing ceremony tonight with 100,000 plus people in and around the stadium for the closing.
There was an army of volunteeres to help us with any and everything we needed. The games themselves actually had 4000+ volunteeres.
The riding was from an impressive and international field. 16 countries were represented and in the end I was fortunate enough to come away with the gold.
I snapped a ton of photos on my actual SLR camera but for now I will leave you with an Iphone photo of the closing ceremony.
I’m heading to Tokyo, Japan tomorrow morning so I’ll keep some pics and updates coming. Andrew
P.S. I feel like I need to mention how amazing not only Trevors new haircut is but also his expression that really puts emphasis on the fact that is this best haircut of all time, and he knows it.

I spent 3 hours doing laps at TSR today after flying. This place never let’s me down. This is probably my 10th+ trip to TSR and I’m still just as excited as my 1st. I came to be a part of Cablestock and have a weekend full of water time. I’ll keep you posted on what’s going on but right now at 9:30 pm I’m heading to surf the river with Gabe Lucas and friends on the natural standing wave. This area has such a good vibe.

Started off the day with a succesful shoot with Bill Doster from WBM. Matt Hickman, Craig Katilnick, and Scott Stewart were all part of making it happen as well. Perfect morning for it and D-Dub was kind enough to share the lake with us since he was shooting as well. Great morning, good time and we did what we set out to do.
After the shoot I rode with Scott Stewart to wakegames and watched the qualifer. Wow, there was some good riding going on today. I’m prequalified thanks to a 5th place overall king of wake finish for 08. It gave me a unique chance to just be a spectator at a pro event without the pressure of worring about my own ride. I really enjoyed watching everyone. Most all of the CWB team qualified In as well.
Overall a good day and now were headed back to Auburndale to freeride.

I arrived back home mid day yesterday from the kick off of the 09 WWA World Series which brought me to CWC in the Phillipines for 10 days. The trip, tournament ,and sight were amazing. However it’s now 3 a.m. on Wednesday morning and I am wide awake. This jet lag is going to take a few days to shake.
Later on in the day today I’ll be posting my full update of the amazing trip. For now I’ll leave you with an early morning picture from CWC and I’m going to make an attempt at getting back to sleep.

Let the travels begin. Well I guess today officially kicks off the 09 season for me. I’m headed to CWC in the Phillipines for the 1st stop of the WWA World Series. It will be 36 hours before I arrive at wakeboarding heaven. Once there I will be keeping you updated with photos and words throughout the 10 day trip. I will be free riding, competing, and watching riders from over 30 different countries and bringing it to you right here on the blog. I will also have more photos posted on my website andrewadkison.com.
For now all I have is a quick pic from the Orlando airport. Don’t worry they’re going to get much more exciting as the trip goes on. Stay posted, Andrew

Myself Nick and a few others hit OWC today for a few hours of riding. I’m leaving for the Phillipines on Friday so I’m just craming in a ton of riding. We’ll be on the boat tomorrow so keep an eye out for some new photos in the afternoon.
Oh and be ready for a blogathon from the Phillipines!!!
Later, Andrew

Big crew shredding the home waters of lake Ariana today. My CWB brethren
Bryan Hutton, and Nick Nick Jones came out for a set. Also about 5 other friends came out riding with us today. So basically we had a full boat day. I got my first sunburn of the season so that’s exciting, kinda. The only thing that could have made it a better day of shredding would be if Corey Bradley, Derek Gras, and T Hansen came out to slaysh as well. So guys if your reading this, come out for a ride before we leave for the Philipines!!! Later, Andrew
