Shaun Murray – where it all started – Interview

He has board control like nobody else and is also a true gentleman. In this podcast we talk about everything from his introduction to the sport, to his playstation game. I hope you enjoy this podcast and thanks for watching. Details

Hopefully it helps and let me know any questions you might have. Good luck trying it down at your local wake park.

This edit was a test for a future video. The plan is to wakeboard behind a Supercar of some sort but for now the Land Rover was more than enough. I’m actually really surprised how well it went and huge thanks to Tim for helping me get this done.
