Beaver County River Regatta
Posted by: | CommentsThe Wakeboard Pittsburgh Crew will be preforming in the Beaver County River Regatta for the third straight year on August 15th and 16th, 2009. We always are happy to participate in an event were we get to demonstrate the sport of wakeboarding in front of a large crowd. Not to mention that the area is a No Wake zone with pristine water and they let me do whatever I want. Last year I tried to jump wake to wake over a Jet Ski! Check out the other highlights from last years show in the photo gallery below.
If you have any antics or ideas for this years show, hit us up at www.wakeboardpittsburgh.com/contact-us. Also, make sure to stop by and say Hi. There will be 12 of us rocking out all weekend on the Malibu Wakesetter and I will be the guy with the Slingshot Wakeboard Gear.
The Beaver County River Regatta in Bridgewater, PA offers events for kids and adults of all ages: Children’s Fishing Derby, Ducky Derby Race, The Anything That Floats Contest , along with the Wing Eating Contest, Tons of Food Vendors, and live Entertainment by the Top Bands in the area. Extreme Drag Boat Racing, Water Sports, Water-Ski Shows, Children’s Activities, and Zambelli Fireworks are only some of the reasons to attend.
Random Antics in July
Posted by: | CommentsAfter traveling every weekend in June, I decided to take a little time off in July to ride and relax. Here are a couple of random videos from the summer.
Check out this video of a kid jumping off of a tower while we were towing a 31′ pleasure boat in because they ran out of gas. Did I mention that the 31′ boot was tubing all day right where the water was the best and then flagged us down right before I was about to take my first set of the day! Oh well, I guess you can’t will them all.
We saw these people jumping off of an old barge docking station, so we decided to watch!
