The Dallas Winter Boat Show kicked-off last weekend and the wakeboard community celebrated at the 5th Annual Boardshorts, Bulls and Bikini’s Wakeboard Party at Gilley’s, Dallas.

There were no “Boardshorts” this year (the rail jam portion was unfortunately scratched from this years event – a victim of the strained economy), but thanks to support from iWake.com and the new Dallas Watersports Complex…the wakeboard party still went down at the legendary honky-tonk.

The evening started with the mechanical bull-riding contest featuring a host of top pro and local wakeboarders ready to battle it out for the coveted Boardshorts, Bulls and Bikini’s custom silver trophy belt buckle. After a quick warm-up session…eleven riders each stepped into the bull-riding arena to try and beat the bull!

The six (6) riders with the best times would advance to the final round and would also judge the bikini contest later in the evening. The longest rides in round one came from Gabe Lucas (23.2 seconds), Davis Griffin (22.2 sec), Adam Errington (20.6 sec) Andrew Adams (18 sec), Jimmie LaRiche (17.9 sec) and Joe Lemberg (17.2 sec). In the finals, it was last year’s runner-up – Texan Gabe Lucas – who would tame the beast and take home the hardware!

Rode all day yesterday on the intercoastal. Good change of scenery. Playing FIFA and losing by 4 points to Grasso… Killing it. Went winching a few days ago at Pine Creek with Andy, Hooker, Keaton and Tad. Got some good footage! Look out for “More Than Machines,” Tad’s new video.

Also during expo week Andy and I shredded Pine Creek and here is a little vid… Enjoy

After 7 years of having the same hair cut, i recently decided it was time for something new. inspired by the rest of the cwb teams dashing new looks, i decided to go for a full out clean cut buzz. half way through the cutting process i thought, maybe i dont wanna be so clean cut, maybe i wanna have a look that says im formal but i also like to party. nothing says that better than the Chuck Lidell buzzhawk. i have some in between shots i can put up in a couple days that are pretty funny. but here is a quick web cam shot of the final product… could i be chuck lidells son? you be the judge.. haha

Its no secret that everyone has a bunch of passwords. I know that I have at least 20 different passwords for all kinds of stuff. Here lies the problem and the reason that I am talking about passwords. How hard is it to remember what password goes with what? Its ridiculous! I have been trying to get on this website for an hour and I couldn’t figure out what the heck my password was. It was hard enough to remember the user name. Usually when you sign up for something these days it is either your email address that ends up being your user name and then you have to make up a password. Well I have 3 email addresses and 20 or so different passwords (or numbers which becomes really confusing) so how an I supposed to remember them all. Its insane really because you don’t want to write them down. I forgot my pin for my bank card one time and it took me a week to remember it. I was starring at the ATM thinking it could be any of those number!!! As i am writing this my wife just leaned over my shoulder and told me that no one cares that I can’t remember all my passwords and I had to agree so I apologize for the first half of this blog. On to more important things that you will definitely care about. I have 3 dog’s there names are Baxter, Mylo and Brody. They are the 3 best dog’s you could have. Recently though the breed of my dogs had been on everyone’s lips. WHY you ask. Well its because my dogs are Portugues water dogs. Yep the same Portugues water dog that Obama just got for the first family.
I was pretty bummed at first when I heard that they where getting the same breed dog as me. I like it when no one has any idea what i just said when they ask “what kind of dogs are those”? But now that everyone knows I figure I might as well capitalize of this. You see my dog Baxter bears a striking resemblance to Obama’s dog Bo. So here is my plan I am going to take Baxter on a nation wide tour of elementary schools and show the class “the Presidents dog”. Kids are going to love this and by the time they figure out that its not really Bo I will be in the next state fooling another class of 2nd graders. Its the perfect plan. Sometimes in a down economy you have to make moves you wouldn’t normally make and I am happy that I found mine.

This is all of course a huge joke and I would never think of fooling a group of kids into thinking that my dog was the presidents dog……… Or would I?

Bo wanna be!
