The "Cinco Sporto" Article is up now at Wakeboard Northwest. Head on over and check it out! It has the recap write-up by Greg and some photos of everyone from the day. Should see a small photo gallery up there soon as well.
Family seems to be the theme of the month for our little company. One of our wake riders, Mr. Eric Sund and his lovely wife Lindsey recently welcomed their daughter Rylee Mae to the family. Rylee is their first kid and we’ve got money on her first words being ‘nose press’ or ‘back lip.’ For those of you that don’t know, Eric is the resident king of rails at the playground that is Koppert Lake. Congratulations Eric and Lindsey!
Well we did it...in a mix of Spanish/English (Spanglish?) we dubbed our adventure "Cinco Sporto Cero Ocho" and set out to cover five board sports in one day. It took us 21 hours and some mileage on the NWR Bus (yet to be officially named). Stay tuned for coverage.
If you have never checked out the web site WakeFirst.com, go have a look. The site is a "MySpace" style site for wake sports and features videos, photos, and other media. You can create your own profile and communicate with others in the area. The guys that run WakeFirst were nice enough to post up a link to our site. Click the image below to visit.
Our old friend and team rider, Brent Starr and his lovely wife Amy recently celebrated their one year wedding anniversary. Brent spends a good chunk of his summers on the Northwest Riders Tour, and we’re hoping that Amy might be able to join in on a few of our trips this summer. Congratulations to the Starrs, once they decide to add a few kids perhaps they’ll lay claim to having a new constellation named after them. We’d call it “The Mason Lake Mafia.”
Northwest Riders Clothing Company would like to officially welcome Jake Waldrop to the family. Jake is the first skateboarder signed to the team. The kid rips on a skate...check him out at the Kenmore, WA skate park or other skate parks around the area. Welcome to the team Jake!
We added photos on the team rider page tonight. Wake team rider, Brent Starr, now has his photos up. Have a look!
