Gabe Lucas & Colin Gee | Hexacopter Footage

With recent advances in digital video technology, features like super-slow mo, waterproof housing, and HD clips are more accessible than ever. Formerly reserved for the elite, this technology is now in the hands of nearly every aspiring filmer and editor with a YouTube account. So what’s next?

Recently, coupled with advances in RC technology, filmers have entered a new frontier of capturing extreme angles and pans. Here’s an example of what we may be in store for over the next couple years on the web-edit front. All the footage captured here of Gabe Lucas and Colin Gee was shot in a single day. Daps and pounds all around.

The Best of 2012 | Web Edits

If you’re a regular user of the internet (I assume you are), you are well aware that anyone can make a wakeboarding video these days and upload it to the web. This past year we were bombarded with mini edits, parts, teasers, web series, product unveilings, contest videos, highlight reels, etc. There’s certainly no shortage of stoke, but has the art of producing quality wakeboard parts been lost in quantity? No! You just have to do a bit of digging to find the ones that shine. Fortunate enough for you, we’ve rounded up our top three and imbedded them below. Happy shredding.

“Cheers to Summer” – Jimmy Lariche & Patrick Weiland

Jimmy teamed up with filmer Patrick Weiland for this edit. Loads of good riding, sharp editing, and scantily clad boat fluff. It looks like Jimmy had a fun summer. Read More >

“Raph” by Liquid Force

Raphael Derome for Von ZipperVideo has always played a huge roll in wakeboarding, but the model is constantly changing. In the past five years there has been a huge influx in online wakeboarding clips, parts, edits, reviews, etc. Anyone can do it. So, will we eventually lose interest in the art of wakeboard film making due to this over abundance? Judging from this Raph Derome part from Liquid Force, Justin Loiselle, and Jonathen Ferguson,  no, we wont.

This is perhaps our favorite “web edit” all year. The riding, filming, and creativity made us want to drop everything we were doing and go wakeboarding. This is exactly what a wakeboard film should do. Thank you for the inspiration, Raph.

2013 Hyperlite

Recently Hyperlite dropped a heap of 2013 product videos featuring new product. Here are some of the goods we are most excited about.

The 2013 Union

“The Union series is the culmination of years of development and the combination of our most advanced materials and construction methods. Inspired by our team, the Union series blends the functionality of a traditional wakeboard with the flex and feel of a thinner park board. Our Crossover SL Core combines both Nova and E-Core materials to produce a lightweight feel with maximum durability. The 360-degree ABS sidewall construction provides superior impact protection while the Sintered Enduro base offers our most durable running surface to date. The Union shape itself is designed around a continuous rocker line which provides great pop and maintains speed into the wake. The subtle base features allow this series to generate edge hold but also provides solid contact on rails. Allowing a rider the option to micro adjust their stance with the addition of the Strata Mounting system was the final element to this innovative design. ” -Hyperlite Read More >
