The Original – No Skis, No Tubes, No Bulls#!t
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

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.
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!
So we’ve all seen a few different variations of the double flip by now right? I personally love seeing the stuff off of the double up because the amplitude is typically way higher than that of a simple wake to wake. Don’t get it twisted thought….wake to wake behind these new Nautique G Series can flat out be ridiculously huge. Now doubles off the kicker at the cable park have been going down for quite some time, but this new variation may take top honors. Watch Max Van Helvoort land this mute double cork 1080 flawlessly. Hailing from Holland and now living in Orlando,FL (wakeboard heaven supposedly) Max set the internet on fire today and we are stoked to see this trick go down…and this good looking.
