So I hit the water this morning at 7:45 to shoot with WBM. Matt Hickman and Bill Doster made it happen for an awesome morning on Clear Lake.
It was the first morning this year that it was fully comfortable to ride without any sort of wetsuit. To top that off we had the entire lake to ourselves. I’ve attached a picture of the morning mission crew. However it was shot from my iPhone while gearing up so it’s not my best work but should give an idea of the morning.
I’m at the projects now and will keep you updated on how todays system 2 session goes. Andrew

Derek and Nick made it out for a set on the new boat today. Unfortunately I didn’t get any riding shots for ya. Just one of them smiling real cheesy. I feel like you can tell from their expression how we all felt about todays session.
It was a super nice day for riding. Probably the best of the year this far. It was 80 and the lakes were glass all day.
I’m shooting for wakeboarding mag tomorrow morning and headed off to the projects after that to ride the system 2.0. I’ll keep you updated, Andrew

I received my new xstar a few days ago. It’s the PWT addition. My favorite yet. Myself, Hutton and a few others on the team will be using it today. I’ll attach some photos of us in action later. Andrew

Well, I may not have been able to make it on the Aus trip this time around, but was able to get a few sets in my hometown. It was a nice reminder as to how fortunate I was to grow up in Panama city, FL.
I get asked on a very regular basis where my favorite place to ride is and it has to be PC, florida. Our lakes here are like no other I’ve been to. Most people have seen or been to Panama City Beach and are familiar with the white silicon sand and the crystal clear water, but few are aware of the lakes in Panama City that look exactly the same. The lakes are so clean and clear you feel more like you’re in a swimming pool than a lake. There are 30+ of these clear lakes in northern bay county and southern washington county but Lucas Lake, White Western, and Lake Merial are a few of my favorites.  I’ll dig through my photo archives when I get back to Auburndale to give you a few more pics of my favorite place to ride.  Here is one in the mean time of Jimmy Trask riding on Lucas Lake a few months ago.

Due to a family emergency I won’t be able to make it to Australia this trip. However Trev and Corey are there so keep an eye out for their blogs.-Andrew

Being that it’s the middle of
the season my next few post will be from the road. I’ll actually have
an event every weekend from now until October. This seasons travels
are pretty exciting with a few coutries on the list I’ve never been to
and some I always enjoy going back to.
At present I’m on a 3 and a half week trip that involves a comp in
Portland June 20-22 on the 23rd we head to eastern Washington to stay
on a house boat and do a photo shoot with CWB until Thursday the 26th
when I head out for MasterCraft pro wakeboard tour #4 in Arizona. On
Sunday the 29th I head out from Arizona for two days of travel that
will take me to Naga, Philipines for the 1st stop of the 08 WWA
WorldSeries.
I’ve bored you with travel details to let you know there should be
some good photos and better stories from the road in the next few
weeks. I’ll be bringing my camera along the entire way so keep an eye
out for an updated blog soon, Andrew

Well i first will address the fact that I was only trying to do Zane a favor by watching a movie this evening. I knew he was debating on weather or not to take two hours of his tightly packed schedule to watch Zohan sometime this week. I was gracious enough to take two hours of my time to decide if it was worth his time or not. In the end it was and now Zane can go to Zohan without wondering if he should be addressing some urgent emails instead. You’re welcome. Glad I could help. Also I swung the sledge hammer more than a few times today putting in tent spikes.
Also weakest link in the blog? I believe I had the first blog. No big deal. Besides that it’s quality not quanity. You should look into that…
Moving on:
Since my first blog I have been doing quite a bit.
The season is full on now. I’ve been traveling on the weekends and trying to catch up and get riding time during the week.
We did an road trip to Texas in the beginning of May. It was awesome. We made a few stops along the way. One in Panama city and another 3 day stop in Hammond, LA with my friend Chip Smith. You can check the details below on derek’s blog or in the new WBM. I will have a small snapshot of the trip in a “My Scene” article on Chip Smith and the rest of the Rukus boardshop crew. They were gracious host. We finished up that trip with a fun as usual cable stock at TSR. It was an awesome time.
The next weekend was the Royer Rumble in Norther Cali. It was quite an event. Mike Royer and his crew really did a top notch job of putting on an event for both the riders and the spectators.
After that was Acworth, Master, Ft. Worth tour stop and this weekend in Minnessota for the MCPWT. I would give you more details but it’s almost 1 a.m. and I have to compete tomorrow. I have an event every weekend until October I’ll keep you posted along the way.
This blog was a bit of a catch up to speed but the next to come will have more details.
ride on, andrew

So i don’t really know how to kick this off so I’m just going to dive right in. Got the call today that we are now blog ready on RideCWB.com. I don’t really have too much exciting to talk about right now other than heading to the Edmonton boat show over the weekend. It’s my last of 8 boat shows for the off season and then back to the fun stuff, riding. I’m taking the next six weeks at home to ride and seriously focus before the 08 season rolls around. I have a tournament or event every weekend May-September. You can check out my schedule on my website www.andrewadkison.com . It’s looking pretty busy this season fo sho. There are more than a few places on the schedule that i’ve never been to and plan on keeping you posted on most of it.

Oh, we just finished up the CWB team poster shoot. It was a good time had by all. Look for details of that on the website soon.

That’s the general for the next few months but check back for more details as things start to pick up.
