Comments Off on Wakeboarding in Florida

Hi all,

What a brilliant trip to Florida so far. It’s been fantastic to ride in hot weather with very little wind and I’ve had the opportunity to ride with lots of different people at Chain of Wakes in Winter Haven, Freedom Wake Park and OWC in Orlando. The highlight so far was when I landed my first Whirly 7. I was so pumped! Also had a super fun time on all the roller coasters at Busch Gardens in Tampa. Still another week to go……..
Thanks,
David
Comments Off on Wakeboarding at ‘Chain of Wakes’ in Florida

Hi guys,

I’m just back from Orlando Florida where I went to train with Stew Mackie (British team coach) at his place on ‘Chain of Wakes’, in Winter Haven. It’s a really cool spot with lots of calm water, and much to my surprise, the weather was great considering it was winter! We had a load of bants on the boat every day and just in general.

New 2013 O’Brien Gear

So stoked to get my new 2013 gear out here in Florida. Have been shredding this week and the new Coda board and GTX bindings are sick!

Comments Off on Summer Wakeboarding in 9 Degrees Centigrade…..

It’s unbelievable here this month, really cold. Where is our summer? Last weekend in one day we hailstones and thunder and lightning, and this weekend we had hailstones again. Today the wind blew up to gale force and to cap it all our boat broke down for the first time ever since we bought it in 2007. It looks like breaking all records for the coldest May ever in Ireland if it keeps up like this for the rest of the month. I wish I could be in Florida or Xtreme Gene in Spain! Fingers crossed it picks up for next weekend.

A grey day in May!
