WSBD Update!
The WWA Wakeboard World Championships were in OKC a couple of weekends ago. Waterski Boats Dallas was the host dealer and Supra pulled the event. Fuel TV shot the entire thing along with all of the major wakeboarding publications. Over the next couple of months, you will begin to see a lot of the follow up about Worlds in various places, including daily on Fuel TV. You can read all about it here… http://www.wakeworld.com/getarticle.asp?articleid=1856
The weekend after Worlds was Surf Expo on Orlando. Surf Expo is a huge trade show for all of the dealers and industry people involved in Wake, Surf and the similar mainstream sports. Each year at Expo, Wakeboarding Magazine hosts the Wake Awards. The Wake Awards recognized "The Best In Wake" in 15 different categories including video, photography and top riding including the "Move of the Year" awards in both wakeboarding and wakeskating. Presented by Oakley, the "Move of the Year" is a top honor in the sport, so the winner in each category won some pocket cash as well as a custom-engraved Oakley Diamond Minute Machine watch. Danny Harf took home this year's wakeboard "Move of the Year" with the first ever switch toeside 1260, and Stu Shinn held down the wakeskate side with a wake-to-wake backside bigger spin. The results of the other categories can be found here. http://www.wakeboardingmag.com/article/Events/WakeBoarding-Magazines-Fifth-Annual-Wake-Awards-Goes-Off-At-Surf-Expo
There will be more info to come regarding what all will be going on once we get moved to the new facility. Winterization time is coming unfortunately, but with our new dealership, we will be able to get you in and out much faster than years past!
The new pro shop is going to be incredible! We have recently picked up Jet Pilot and Fox Riders Co to add to our growing collection! This means that not only will we be carrying the complete lines from Ronix, Radar, Hyperlite, HO and Monster Tower, but we will also be stocking Jet Pilot Vests and Apparel and Fox Apparel! And if you thought 2008 was a great year for wakeboard gear, then you won’t believe your eyes for 2009!I will send out another update soon! Thanks!

Worlds Results
As expected, the defending world champ, Phillip Soven, 19, of Longwood, Fla., reached the Pro Men division finals today and as the top-seeded rider. But the pressure of retaining his title got the best of Soven as the Florida native posted a score of 82.00, landing him in third-place.
Taking the top spot in the six-man final and claiming the 2008 world title was Rusty Malinoski, 24, of Humboldt, Sask., who became the first Canadian rider to win the world title since Jeremy Kovak claimed it in 1997. Fellow Canadian rider, Aaron Rathy of Nanaimo, B.C., finished the contest in second place.
Although JD Webb did not make it to the finals today, the 2004 Rookie of the Year did manage to ride away with some extra cash thanks to Rockstar Energy Drink. Webb was named the winner of the Rockstar Energy Drink Best Trick Award, a $1,000 cash bonus for landing the most impressive trick of the contest, a switch frontside 270 to backlip nosepress on the Billabong Rooftop.
With the defending women's world champ, Amber Wing, 25, of Sydney, Australia, out of the contest with a knee injury, all eyes were on three-time world champ Dallas Friday, 22, of Orlando, Fla. as she seemed the likely winner. But British standout, Nicola Butler, 16, of Bournemouth, England, threw down an impressive run to take the top spot in the finals to claim her first-ever world title. Butler stands as the only UK native to win a wakeboard world title. Friday finished in second place and California's Melissa Marquardt took third.
The top four shredders in the world battled it out on the water today in the Pro Wakeskate division finals. Former world champ Brian Grubb, current U.S. national champ Stuart Shinn and two-time Canadian national champ James Balzer all looked to leave the defending world titlist, Reed Hansen, in their wake and claim the '08 world title for themselves. But Hansen was unbeatable on the water today as the defending champ retained his title, beating his next closest competitor, Grubb, by nearly 20 points. With today's win, Hansen becomes the first pro wakeskater ever to win consecutive world titles.
2008 Has proven to be Jimmy LaRiche's year as the Boca Raton, Fla. native won the '08 Wake Games title, '08 Pro Tour Junior Men title, the '08 U.S. National title, and now the '08 World title after taking the top spot in today's Jr. Men's division finals. LaRiche faced off in a six-man final for the world title beating out Canada's Raphael Derome and Aussie Harley Clifford, who finished second and third-place respectively.
Anna Hejak took the top spot in the Jr. Women's division four-woman final. Holland Finely finished in second place and Megan Blaschka placed third in the finals.
In the Boys division, six young rippers, ages 10-13, faced off in the finals for the division's world title. Michael Dowdy threw down an impressive run to claim the division's world title with Jess Polley and Cooper Swink rounding out the podium respectively.
The youngest riders out on the water today, ages nine and under, faced off in a three-man final in the Jr. Boys division. Ben Watts took the top spot in the finals to claim the world title. Joe Martella and Ian Rabon finished in second and third, respectively.

Supra is Charged Up About the Worlds!
Supra and co-sponsor Reichhold will host a Practice Run for Worlds Qualifiers Wednesday, September 3rd from noon to 7 pm. The Practice Run will give qualifiers the opportunity to ride behind the actual event towboat with pro-rider and Wakeboarding Magazine’s Instruction Editor, Kyle Schmidt. National qualifiers can register for the Practice Run at www.supraboats.com.
There are three key elements that are back by popular demand, the Commemorative DVD co-sponsored by Roswell, Family Night co-sponsored by Jabsco and the Supra VIP Hospitality Tent co-sponsored by Kenwood. The Roswell commemorative DVD is a keepsake of each qualifiers experience riding in the championships and features one on one interview’s between Team Supra Pro Riders and qualifiers just moments before their run.
This year’s Jabsco Family Night will take place at P2R Pole Position Raceway. Qualifiers and their families will be treated to dinner and a real side by side racing tournament at an indoor race track. It’s like a golf tournament on steroids with go karts racing up to 45 mph on a ¼ euro style road course. In addition, qualifiers and their families will be able to kick back and watch all 16 divisions compete in style at Supra‘s luxurious VIP Hospitality Tent co-sponsored by Kenwood. Leather couches, large LCD TV’s, cold drinks and good food are a few of the items available to accommodate VIP’s.
New elements added to this year’s event include Demo Days and the Dinner of Champions Red Carpet Awards Banquet co-sponsored by Kicker and OJ Props. Demo Days, co-sponsored by Waterski Boats of Dallas will offer spectators the chance to test drive or ride behind a Supra Launch 24SSV. Not only can you watch the Worlds, but you can get out on the water and even get wet! Demo Days also offers the opportunity to try out some of the latest wakeboard gear from leading industry manufacturers.
Supra is super stoked about the redesigned premier event co-sponsored with Kicker and OJ Props, “The Dinner of Champions Red Carpet Awards Banquet.” This year’s awards ceremony has been brought indoors to the host hotel’s ballroom at the Sheraton OKC. Qualifiers and their families will be treated to a true red carpet experience. Families will have the opportunity to sit at the pro rider’s table of their choice. Additional tables will feature President of Skiers Choice, Rick Tinker, Marketing Director of Skiers Choice, Michael Littman, Founder of the WWA Shannon Starling and Worlds Sports and Marketing’s very own Chris Bischoff and Sean Dishman.
After the success of last years event, Rick Tinker asked, “What can we do to make the World’s even bigger and better in 2008?” Plans have been underway since the close of the ‘07 World’s. Supra is taking their sponsorship even further than anticipated. “We are glad to have this opportunity to give back to the sport which we love,” stated Rick Tinker.
Another unique element available to fans that do not have the opportunity to catch all the high flying, rail-sliding water-sports action in Oklahoma City, is the ability to catch the exciting LIVE footage of all 16 divisions at www.fuel.tv/wakeboardworlds beginning Friday, Sept. 5 and wrapping up on Sunday, Sept. 7. In addition to watching all the action, fans can be part of it as well, as viewers will be able to e-mail in real time direct to commentators Nick Weinacker and “the Noise of the North” Dano Amir in the announcers tower during the webcast. Viewers can share comments, opinions or just give a shout-out to riders, friends and family at the event.
And last but not least, Supra will debut the all new 2009 Supra Launch Worlds Edition, the Official Towboat of the WWA Wakeboard Worlds Championships that has dealers customers going crazy. The brand new Worlds Edition was just unveiled to dealers on August 10th and is so popular that it is already on back order…now that’s one hot boat! Look for more details about the Supra Launch Worlds Editions to be revealed later this week.
