Keith Lyman recently strapped into his re-designed Slingshot pro model to cut around a bit. Keith hasn’t missed a beat on the water – same Keith, same style, same integrity. Press play and enjoy this rare chance to see Keith rip out on the water.
“We were lucky enough to catch up with Keith recently and take a ride with him on his new 2014 pro Model. The man has still got it…Watch him in action and hear what he has to say about the completely re-designed 2014 Lyman Pro Model.” – Slingshot Wake

We love September for three reasons: next year’s product is dropping, the heaviest season edits are being uploaded, and of course Surf Expo – the annual “active lifestyle” trade show in Orlando where the air is tinged with new gear, swimsuit models, and wakeboarding’s elite. We attended Surf Expo this past weekend to get the lowdown on everything 2014 and bump elbows with our industry brethren. It was a wild ride but we persevered. Here’s some of the highlights straight from the floor.
Big shouts to everyone who made time for us down in Surf Expo this past weekend. Special congrats to team riders Mike Dowdy and Danny Hampson for their accomplishments for 2013. Here’s to next year….
Oakley’s game changing women’s wakeboard series, Sets In Motion, gives girls a unique platform in which to showcase their talent on the water. Now the pinnacle of the project, The Sets In Motion Movie, splices together the best action from the series plus a hefty dose of new wake footage. These are the girls that propelled women’s wakeboarding to where it is today. From the first 720 executed by a woman to the first mobe 540, it’s all here.
“I wanted to create a platform and a project for the girls that’s going to be timeless and online and for everyone to see forever. It was an idea, in a way, for me to push the girls and motivate them to progress their riding harder than what they’ve ever done in the past.” – Amber Wing
Danny Hampson and Liquid Force Films have been stacking footage from their travels all Summer long. The product is Graceland feat. Danny Hampson. In this 7:42 long scorcher, Danny proves that he is one of the most rounded wakeskaters in the game while shining on all disciplines from winch to boat. Highlights include Danny’s monstrous frontside bigspin into the flats and his unique ability to effortlessly link tricks together.
