SC & Raising Cash

Wednesday, June 18th, 2008

So this past week I went to JC Sports in Clemson, SC and took a bunch of peeps out riding it was fun, the best was this little guy Max he’s like 7-8 maybe anyway I let him drive the boat and he rode, we had a great crew rolling out on the waters of Lake Keowee!  Then Sat-Sun I went to Lake Murray with Gunnell’s Marine and this group called the Rought Riders…(www.lakemurrayroughriders) and we did a huge demo/clinic/bro fest of riding all weekend, got to hang out with Shaun Murray and Austin Hair a bit, that was fun even did a doubles run with Murray barefooting!!  We took a ton of people, some had never rode which is what I like cause they get so excited to get up…hey I even coached some wakeskating and Wilds (the kid skater) landed a toeside wake to wake 180 and a heelside back side 3 wake to wake….big too! 

 Last night Jimmy Trask, Will Christien, Jeff House and Bryan Hutton and I all pitched in to help out with a Boys & Girls Club fund raiser….we all were essentially “celebrity” bartenders….not good for the profits to put me behind the bar, but we had a great time doing it and the event raised over $40K for the kids in 3 hours!!  Nice to see the fellow riders come out to help the community huh!

 That’s it for now more to come heading to Knoxville Friday!!

Cobra

Wednesday, June 11th, 2008

The Cobra is a deadly snake that sits in a basket awaiting it’s prey…it then dazzles the prey with its stare and swaying back and forth…..sometimes they strike sometimes they don’t….where as a King Snake is a version of the Cobra thatmoves around kick, one of the fastest ones out there and quite smooth at that…..

Friday, June 6th, 2008

Andrew is feverishly trying to catch up on his bloggin and he is starting to make up stuff now…any way I wanted to comment on Corey Bradley’s choice of books…I hope They Serve Beer in Hell….great book officially a must read for newly single guys like me…all out there should read this with the disclaimer that is is disturbing though. 

 Got my heat for tomorrow, got some hgjt6y5uigby ukv

TX PWT

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008

So the TX PWT was last weekend and I certainly cannot remember the results, but let’s say ummmm Andrew got 2nd…I think he should have beaten the Frog, and Hutton tied for 5th…new roomy kicking ass!!!  Umm Derek and I made it to live another day on the PWT as well as fellow roomy Jimmy Trask….yeah I have 2 dudes living with me and it’s a total bro fest here with FUEL kicking all day long these guys really have it tough.  Anyway…Gabe Lucas showed up and I haven’t seen him since the poster debacle where he couldn’t even ride a bike under water, Jimmy Wolf was there killing the rails looking forward to shooting at his house in AZ end of June….and the ATL crew AKA Lee Bros were on hand, Brett looks like 1000 bees stung him cause he’s all swelled up not even sure how he can bring his hands together to grab the handle, he makes the Macho Man Randy Savage look like a pansy…..serious….any way all in all it was a fun weekend, met up with CWB traveling coach Dave Briscoe for livations at the TX Stock Yards in Fort Worth…if you’ve not been there make sure to go…think about this, 40+ top wakeboarders hanging in saloons where the ride mech bulls, line dance, and generally take not shit from anyone…then we show up and what a nice clash of personalities!!!  Go it’s fun!

That’s right it’s true DG is back anbd killing it..yesterday I watched him rip down some 7s whirly 5s BS 5s roll to blind he is coming back strong…the shot about was professionally taken by me today while driving the slammed X Star that’s him on a whirly 5….any way I am happy my good friend is getting his stees back.  Today Robbie Carter knocked down a nice grabbed crow 5 too then I watched him stomp a few 7s and 9s…..  Will is here in the USA as well finally got her green card sorted so she;s been over helping me ride some.  We’ve all been shredding our faces off at the house, JD has been over the past few days…speaking of did anyone her about the Redbull B-Day party they threw him in Orlando….I seriously have to give them and JD credit for the raddest Birthday party ever!!  Couple of hundered friends on top of some sick building in downtown catered and open bar…it was out of control (see pic of CB napping as a result from JD’s event).  Any way back to business there’s been some serious hours going down on the X Star the past few days, gotta get those skills dialed for the upcoming PWT in ATL next week!  Speaking of ATL I was up there this past week and the crew from Ambush/BuyWake seriously knows how to have a good time in ATL!!  Any way next up I am off to the Royer Rumble in CA….should be good will try to get some more pics….ZS

 

 

 

Sliding to Face….

Thursday, March 27th, 2008

It’s been a busy weke down here, there are photo shoots happening for MasterCraft and the guys are riding a lot too. Went up to Wakeboard Mag the other day and did some stuff you’ll see in the upcoming issues and then got to bro down with Kevco, who I have know since like 1992-3 we go way back and he showed me some video of Steve Bates (CWB Team Mgr) and I riding back in the day….Dec 94 to be exact..any way he is convinced that this sort of relic belongs on their site, so please be sure to look for it I am talking vintage directional board stuff here…it’s so damn funny!

OK so they fellas, House, Derek, Jimmy Trask and Spencer Norris have been filming a ton at my house….and they put up this fun little rail to session right off the dock here…it’s pretty mellow but fun nonetheless…so of course I was taunted into hitting it and it was fun unitl I switch 270 on and tried to 3 out only to land going out the front at that point sticking my face into the handle and it caught my right eyebrow…now rocking ice packs as I will have a black eye and I’ll be sure to post that too.

Back Yard

Last but certainly not the least I was challenged in Edmonton by the CWB sub rep Jared, to man up and grow a “stache” I think I have actually one upped him with this beauty!

Derek’s Recovery!!

Monday, March 17th, 2008

So Derek did pick me up and he is pumped he got to work out 2 times today and is now back doing whirlys, backside 3s and slew of stuff he had to re-learn….if you didn’t know he had broken his leg….pretty bad but I think he’s just complaining cause I did it a long time ago and I don’t remember being such a baby, but nonetheless he is STOKED to be back charging it! We have a St. Patties Day celebration to attend tonight where hopefully I will partake in some green beverages HAPPY St Patricks to ALL!!

Edmonton Canada

Monday, March 17th, 2008

Pretty new to blogs so bear with me I really did not do well in creative writing in school so this might suck…if so sorry and for that matter too bad who expects me to be a writer anyway.

OK so I just am in Minneapolis returning from my second venture to Ocean Sports in Edmonton Canada, to hang, sell and freeze with my bro Jeff Heer (Canadian CWB Rep and one of the best riders ever to grace water). Last time I went up there for the boat show it was insane and they proved to make it insane once again, it was -18 C Sunday morning…and get this people were scrambling to get new boards, surfers and boats…really weird to me that they’d even care about it right now but Canada is stoked on riding….it’s amazing!! I really want to thanks Ryan & Megan for having me up, even though it was the coldest I have ever been in my life it was fun! Andrew was there for MasterCraft so it was good to see him, but if you read this blog you’d know we just did some insane filming for the new poster, the team is TIGHT this year!! I had everyone at my house for a few days and they pulled everything out of the shed and had a blast, just wait and see you’ll laugh your a$$ off!!

Any way I will blog again got to catch my flight to Tampa as it’s snowing here and I am cold…hopefully Derek picks me up!
