The Orlando Watersports Complex was lined with fans anxious to watch all the divisions compete for the Wakeboard World Championship title.
The Pro Men's division turned out to be quite the exciting finale with Trevor Hansen, Danny Harf, the Soven Brothers and Dean Smith all competing in the semi finals.
Our own, Trevor Hansen took the podium in 3rd place with a very impressive run scoring a 66.67!
"I am on cloud 9 right now. Had an awesome weekend at the Worlds. Rode the best I have ridden all year and ended up in 3rd. So pumped," Trevor said via Twitter.
Also, CWB's Stu Shinn ripped it up in the Wakeskate division rounding out the podium with a 3rd place finish scoring a 71.67.
We would definitely like to congratulate both, Trevor and Stu on their solid riding!

That is, except for Zane – ha – but hey Schwenk's a LEGEND so he can make anything water related look uber-chic. So you want to see how its done?

It’s not every day you get to one up Hugh Hefner, but WAKEBOARDING managed to do just that in the case of Amber Brietzke, winner of WAKEBOARDING and CWB's April Chicks Contest. That’s right, Hef, Amber was a WAKEBOARDING Chick before she was a Playboy Playmate — if only for a few days. A week after the wake-loving 21-year-old from Austin, Texas, won our contest, she shot a photo feature that will run in Playboy this summer. We talked to Amber about how she got into wakeboarding, what she looks for in a guy and how she scored that photo shoot with Playboy.
How long have you been wakeboarding and how did you get into it? Five years. I got into wakeboarding from some buddies who ride and they taught me.
What’s your favorite thing to do on a wakeboard? A scarecrow.
Describe your perfect day. My perfect day would include going out on the boat and shredding all day. I love water and love sports so going on the boat is always a perfect day. Also I love getting a good tan!
What’s your favorite place to ride? i enjoy riding on my favorite lake,
Lake Travis.
What boat do you ride behind? A MasterCraft X-Star
You live close to Texas Ski Ranch. Ever ride the cable? I ride the cable a couple hours every week. Love it!
What do you do for a living? I’m a professional model and student at Texas State University.
How long have you been modeling and what are some of the bigger things you’ve done? I have been modeling since I was five. I have been in Seventeen magazine and on Friday Night Lights. I also did a photo shoot with Playboy earlier this month.
Wow, congrats. How did that come about? One of my friends is a Playmate and her Playboy photographer asked her about me. We talked and scheduled a shoot and I got picked after shooting. It’s great to have connections in the industry. It is all about luck overall.
Ever do any wakeboarding-related modeling? I did a shoot for [Austin Nautique Boats dealer] Sail and Ski, but it was a long time ago. I would love to do another one. I love wakeboarding and modeling.
Who’s your favorite rider? Adam Errington, because he is perfect at every trick that he does. He is never afraid to try new things and is always doing something rad. He is also a sweetheart and a great person! Cutie!
Brrrr. Check out CWB team rider Mike Roeder battling the northern MN cold to get a great set on the new 2010 CWB Onset. Don't miss Mike sessioning the huge corrugated tube!
