We just returned from arguably the best pro wake contest we’ve ever been to: the Slingshot sponsored event properly titled Yardsale held at Valdosta Wake Compound.
This invitation only event was run on a Sesitec System 2.0 course set up unlike anything we’ve ever seen! With one day of practice and three full days of Best Line, Best Feature, and Best Trick, there was no lack of bangers. Our close friend Jeff Mathis took some incredible images that we wanted to share. Watch the video now!
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 >
