Eddie Beverly has been our Hyperlite rep since day one. We have grown our business and our friendship together over the years, all the while listening to him tell some of the funniest and most captivating and informative stories. The one thing we want you all to know is that Eddie is the truth. This guy was and is a part of wakeboarding history, having been there when the first wakeboard was made and when the term “wakeboard” was coined. Eddie has been committed to growing the sport since its birth, and has played a key role in developing the Hyperlite brand. Can you imagine the things he has seen while traveling with the legends Parks Bonifay and Scott Byerly? Dude is a legend…surrounded by legends. Eddie has been doing Hyperlite for 30 years. He is most likely more physically fit then you, and has a way better tan. We want to share with you a few of his stories, and not so much in a podcast format, but in what a typical phone conversation would be like. There are a few gems in this 18+ minute conversation…so pay close attention. I could have let him talk for hours on end, but I’m thinking about making a few more of these in the future with even better, funnier stories. Eddie is in Seattle right now checking out the 2017 Hyperlite line, and I can’t wait for him to get back and get us some sneak peaks of the goods! Read More >
Austin Pratt put together some clips of the #spacemob at Valdosta Wake Compound for the TIge My Wake contest. This core group of riders are constantly changing the game of Cable Riding and MORE. Help the boys out with a vote when the time comes as all that money will be poured back into the park for the riders! LET’S GO!!!!
No summertime sadness here, more like summertime radness. Check out this sweet little video that our team rider and official Dad Cam award winner of the 2016 Shredtown Jamboree, Cole Vanthof, put together of Justin Lee. You can take Justin to any lake and he can throw it down, but you put him behind our award-winning Nautique G21, and he steps it up a few notches. We look forward to getting out and putting together more gems like this for you guys…so stay tuned and make sure you follow our Instagram and Facebook for more hotness! #TheRealBuyWake
Also…go to BuyWake.com and check out what Justin is rocking with Humanoid Wake this season!
What a weekend! The 57th Nautique Masters Water Ski and Wakeboard Tournament was held at the prestigious Callaway Gardens on the legendary Robin Lake. This year was a special one for a few reasons, but…most notably, it was Lee Elliott’s 19th Masters and Eddie Beverly’s 31st! That’s a combined 50 years between the two of them! As a thank you, we whipped up this gem of a photo and presented it to them.
On Friday every year Nautique puts on the “Nautique Open” golf tournament that features a bunch of athletes and industry friends. The golf tournament is equally as important to some of the riders as the on-water events. Seriously, it’s always fun getting paired up with friends and leveling the playing field off the water. Look, I’m not throwing any backside 7s anytime soon, but I’ll put up a solid fight on the course and send a few over 300 yards down the pipe. This year Ambush Board Co./BuyWake.com Team Rider, Cole Vanthof, came with us and put together a fun little Instagram video. Read More >
The time has come for all of us wake enthusiasts to get our minds blown from watching the worlds best wakeboarders. The Shredtown Jamboree is a invite only event held at the Shredtown ranch near Dallas, TX. Our BuyWake Team Riders Andrew, Davis, and Chris are arguably the most talented winch and park riders in the game today, and the obstacles they build are legendary to say the lease. Inviting the worlds most talented park riders just so happened to include some of our other Team Riders; Dylan Miller, Quinn Silvernale, Blake Bishop, Wesley Mark Jacobsen, and Felix Georgii. Yup, that’s eight total BuyWake/Ambush riders in a 15-rider invite. The odds were good that one of our boys would come out on top. This year it was Quinn who took home the Best Line Award! The surprise award of the night was most certainly the “Dad Cam” award that our boy Cole Vanthof won. Cole kept the boys in his sights day and night with his sick zooms and night vision. Being a badass wakeboarder is OK, but…if you also have video skills to go along with it, you’re basically a game-changer. Steffen Vollert is a master at both wake and video and put together one of the coolest videos ever! Sit back with a cold one and watch all action go down! Read More >
