NWOpen Wakesurf Videos and Best Wakesurfing Tricks

ragboy — Fri, 20 Aug 2010 17:05:15 +0000

So first, you have to head over to the community to view all the NWWSA Wakesurf Open runs, lots of GREAT wakesurfing. We are starting to transition most of our “community” based info/blogging and stuff over to the community, but we will still be using this blog to publish our podcast. Here is the link to the videos:
http://wake9.com/nwopen
We also created a really fun video of all the best wakesurfing tricks from the open and compiled into one, and added slow motion effects so you could see the detail of the tricks. Use the same link above to watch it, or enjoy in this podcast.

Supreme V226 in NorCal

ragboy — Thu, 12 Aug 2010 18:02:50 +0000

I know several of you have wanted to get a good look at the new tiges, and also the new Supreme V226s. Well, I just got word from a dealer that he has one on his lot, and it will be there all weekend. Call first, don’t blame me if you miss it!

Just 2 blocks from the North Shore of Clear lake. I have guests this weekend, or I would shoot up on Saturday, we gotta support our NorCal dealers, there are so few left.

For those of you that don’t want to make the hike all the way out to clear lake, there should be some more soon at our friends at California Marine Sports. Grant from CMS is planning to get that boat out here to oroville for a bit of a romp. Can’t wait.

ragboy — Wed, 04 Aug 2010 06:40:20 +0000

We are tired, and taking a bit of a rest, but we will start having video and photos for you to see sometime on Thursday. Stay tune to the home page of wake9.com for where to see them on the site. For now, we thought we would post the podium stream. This was recorded directly from the stream that was broadcast live on the internet during the podium presentation. If you were online, this is what you saw.

Surf Nubbin and Headin’ to Washington

ragboy — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 08:43:04 +0000

Well, two items in the news for us. We are heading up to the NWWSA 2nd annual wakesurf event, can’t wait. We will be broadcasting again live, so stay tuned.

Also, we have been working on our special Surf Tow that pulls you up from the side of the tower, instead of the middle. We have found a much cheaper way of doing it, and its compatible with tube towers, and even towers like the Alpha Z. We have a custom prototype, and we are ordering 10 made for more testing. So far, we are VERY pleased. Can’t wait to share.

MyWake is HERE, and Just having FUN

ragboy — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 01:39:32 +0000

We always have something to do, especially with the MyWake contest and the Festival and such, always a video or something to test, etc, etc. Now don’t get me wrong, we love it, but it has been HOT, over 100 degrees lately and sometimes you just want to spend some time surfing and swimming. And that is what we did, and we had so much fun, we figured we had to share it.

Don’t forget to check out and register on MyWake, registration is OPEN!

How to Wakesurf 101: Gettin’ ‘em Up

ragboy — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 04:50:20 +0000

So we have been working on techniques for teaching others to wakesurf for quite some time. We teach a lot of people, mostly kids but many adults also. In this podcast, part of the “How to Wakesurf” series we show several techniques in detail for teaching others how to wakesurf. We had a couple of my nephews visit from Texas, they are 9 and 10 and non-boaters. They each got up and surfed with the rope after just a handful of tries. Stay tuned for the next podcast in this series, “Going Wireless”.

When people watch these videos, there are often lots of questions, and we want to help, but its tough to stay on top of all the emails. So go HERE and feel free to post any questions, and feel free to post pictures of your results, we LOVE to see them.

Here are a bunch of great pictures of the day:

Wake9.com Surf Nubbin

ragboy — Sun, 11 Jul 2010 12:38:23 +0000

If you have been on our boat over the last year, you will have noticed our Surf Nubbin. Its an invention of ours, where we tow the wakesurfer from the side of the boat where they ride on. This works best on the top corner of the tower. This allows the rider to be towed out of the wake, and away from the mush, which is VERY helpful for beginners. This would sell for about $100, but I would need to preorder about 20 of them to start. If you are interested, please contact me. Otherwise, you may watch our “How to Wakesurf 101: Gettin ‘em up” video to see a tip of how to tow like this without one. Its not as convenient, but it works!

Here are some pics of the Nubbin.
