Comments Off on Small wake – what is possible behind a 16ft Rib?

So as you may know, I love to test the ability of small wakes and what’s possible. ** link to riding jacket https://bay6ix.com ** Of course I’d love to be out on a Centurion Ri237, however, right now I can’t travel so this 16 foot rib is the best I can do! It’s got a 2 stroke 130HP Yamaha engine out the back and other than having very low torque in the early revs, it’s got plenty of power. Managed to get a few high end tricks in and I reckon with a little more practice I’d get even more done! Thanks so much for watching, and remember, wakeboarding and water sports are all about having fun on the water no matter how good or bad your equipment is! Thanks for watching. David Details

Comments Off on Q & A – is wakeboarding my job?

As it’s the off-season right now and it’s freeing cold – too cold to wakeboard in Ireland at the moment, I decided I’d record a Questions and answers video covering a few topics like: Is wakeboarding my job, who is my favourite wakeboarder, some trick tips, safety tips, my dream location to wakeboard, plans for the season ahead and even the possibility of inventing a trick. I hope you enjoy the video. David Details

Comments Off on How I Prepare For a Competition – Wakeboarding

So, with little to no wakeboarding training in the weeks coming up to my first comp of the season (the European Pro Wakeboard tour), I decided to head out to SideWake for a few days to prep. Consistency in the game when it comes to comps and so I decided to work on that rather that bigger tricks. I hope you enjoy the video. David
