Aussie Pro Tour blogganza
Friday, January 16th, 2009It recently came together that myself, Trevor Hansen, and Corey Bradley will be heading to Australia for the Aussie Pro Tour in late January and early February. Trev and I will be there for 18 days starting January 21st and Corey will pretty much be there the entire winter. I’m pretty psyched on this trip!!! Competing in the Aussie Pro Tour is just the start of it. We’re making tons of time to free ride some incredible spots, do some tow ins on the gold coast with Jeff Weatherall at snappers, and we’re going to be stopping in to many of the CWB dealers along the way.
I’m planning on documenting the entire trip right here at ridecwb.net/blog and on my personal website andrewadkison.com with daily blogs and photos. You’ll get to see all the stuff that usually falls through the cracks on these trips. I’ll get the entire schedule for the trip up soon. Big thanks to Justin Abbott, Kris Bowers and everyone else involved for making this trip happen.
If you’ve made it this far in this blog the next part is for you. I decided recently that coming into 09 I’m going to keep my website updated through all of my travels. There were so many great experiences in the last few seasons where myself and a few friends ended up in truly unique places to ride. Beyond the usual press release and photo of the podium so much more happens on these trips.
It is on a very regular basis that I am amazed with the places and the events that I’m fortunate enough to see through wakeboarding. And I hope you will be too. From some of the most scenic places that could possibly be ridden to staying in a haunted hostel( that’s a crazy story). I’m going to keep you posted. Wait, that sounded about like a tag line for this blog. You know like a, “stay classy San Diegoâ€Â. I can do better than, “Keeping you Postedâ€Â
I’ve also been shooting photos of my travels for the past 4 years and plan on having photos to go along with a majority of the blogs and as well.
much to come, Andrew
Travel plans
Saturday, June 21st, 2008Being 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
Getting my blog on
Friday, June 6th, 2008 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
AA 1st blog
Thursday, March 13th, 2008So 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.
