Please check out the how to blog, if you haven’t already. We are making more videos and over 550 people have watched the kids surfing video already. I also ordered about 100 t-shirts to give out to kids who learn to surf. The new site design is done, we are building it now. Stay tuned!
Feels weird to drive SOUTH to go to the Northern California wakesurfing contest in Merced. Isn’t that central cali? No worries, I am not complaining. Wake9.com is helping sponsor, and taking our entire stable of floating vehicles. The pontoon for help staging riders, the waverunners for picking riders out of the water, and the Tige to demo the new deck and Samson towers, since wake9.com is now the ONLY Samson dealer in all of NorCal, maybe even all of california. I will have to check.
Here is a picture of all of the vehicles in our front yard.
getting crowded
I had to snap this at the gas station, the tige always looks nice behind the yukon.
nice looking rig
I have no idea what whitney was trying to do with her face.
Nice FACE whitney!
We stopped for eats in Turlock, and amy snapped this out front of Chipotle. Man, that burrito hit the spot.
quite a convoy
Took this picture in the chipotle, I went for the “feelski” on greg, and um, he didn’t seem to mind.
Greg has nice ChiChis.
This is a great picture, and a great memory. Just as we were parking everything at the NOT SO Quality in in Merced, we heard an old school ice cream truck. That dude definitely made his quota for that day! He went home happy.
Ashley was so proud she found her Bugscicle.
Have to be up early tomorrow!
We got in some last minute practice this morning before heading down to Merced for the NorCal wakesufing contest. The Muniz family is going with us to merced, and at least greg and tim will be competing. Since the weather has been so bad, we haven’t been able to get them riding well on the smaller boards, but they are doing well on the mini longboard. Here are a couple pics of greg.
Whitney refers to this method, as OBGYN.
He is getting the hang of it.
The in was Time Muniz turn. He gets up a bit faster, and is a bit of a clown.
Tim starting to clown around
good pic of tim, GREAT pic of wake, so clean.
Then tbone was up. He is doing good but still learning the new board. He is used to boards that are too big for him and spreads his legs out too much, so I wanted to give him some time on the new board before the contest.
tbone can use the practice.
tbone fighting his way back in.
RJ was last. He mainly needed to practice his 3s. There was so much pollen in the air, both he and I were not on our games. RJ struggled with his 3s, but landed a few.

not a bad lipslide
We were only out for about 3 hours, but I hope it helps the kids out.
Crazy day today, getting graphics on all of the floating vehicles, and some on the wheeled ones also. Pontoon is still being done, but I HAD to stop and post a few pictures, it really came out well. What do you think?
Here are some pictures I took from my iphone while in the shop getting it done.

came out a bit too small, going to move the CO sticker, and make bigger.

waverunner treatment
I had the younger kids with me, they couldn’t pass up the ability to be dorks.

tige riddler?
Here I saw them cutting out some board/vehicle stickers for me

Finally got home, here are some BETTER images.
Don’t say it, I know the graphic needs to be larger here, I will fix. I swear.
This one gets the blood flowing away from my head.
Also if you look real close, you will see that on either side of the main graphic is a silhouette of a wakesurfer, shooting up some spray or whatever. They first sent me this graphic, with like a skate boarder on one side, and some arrows on the other side. So I sent them this, and some details of what to do…
RJ signature boost
Cool huh?
That’s it for now, I will post more when I get the pontoon, and then from the contest.
Well, finally decided to start the new blog. Sorry the house isn’t in order yet. Keep checking back and you will get to see the site evolve into something I hope to be proud of, and something that I think will benefit the wakesurfing community. We will be updating the look of the blogs first, then adding other blogs, then finishing the entire site. Don’t forget to get on our mailing list on the home page and we will notify you of major updates!
