Stu Shinn warms up with Rusty

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

Now that Florida has warmed up, it’s back to business! Stu just had a photo shoot for Rusty and Wieland tagged along to film. The guys were out on the water early to get their shots and started throwing down hammers right away. After hitting their home dock on Lake Nan, they decided to head on over to a nearby winch spot. Stu has been shredding on his new CWB wakeskate – the 419.

CWB TV filming this week

Thursday, August 27th, 2009

I’ve been spending much time in Winter Haven the last few days riding with the CWB crew to get ready for Worlds and to get some shots for the upcoming episodes of CWB TV. We have been logging tons of water time and footage. Some innovative, some ridiculous, but all of it fun. On Monday Matt Manzari and Stu Shinn joined us for a wake skate demo. They were actually just free riding but it might as well have been a Demo because we were all impressed. I neglected to bring my good camera along when Manzari was riding but managed to get this pic on my iPhone. Honestly the best riding iPhone shot I’ve taken. Enjoy and more to come.

Here is the 2009 CWB Pure and CWB Torq bindings. Which come in a package on the cheap. I prefer to ride the Zeus’s and next year I will shred the lightest bindings on the planet. They are lighter than air so to put them on your board you actually have to hold them down. Ask Steve Bates. Get your learn on. I ride the Pure and it is awesome. It is the bottom shape from the 2003 Absolute with a different top shape. I rode this board back then and I still ride it now, for one reason. It is probably the best shape I have ever ridden or will ride. Sometimes gimmicks are just gimmicks.

Aussie Pro Tour blogganza

Friday, January 16th, 2009

It 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 Diego”. I can do better than, “Keeping you Posted”

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
