New Sponsors for 2013

The 2013 season is going to be awesome!!! Not only am I really focused on getting back in shape from my surgery, I have a couple more amazing companies backing me as well! ThankYou is my new clothing sponsor for 2013. Really exciting to be apart of this growning company that was started by a good friend of my out of the Midwest. Stay on the look out for my signature line coming out this summer! Rockford Fosgate is my new audio/speaker sponsor. Their product is unmatched! I just recetly went to their headquarters in Tempe, AZ for a photoshoot. Keep an eye out for some of the shots that will be used in Transworld Wakeboarding Mag this spring! GoPro makes the most versatile HD cameras on the planet! Pretty pumped to be hooked up with them! Keep an eye out for some insane footage this summer with the new Hero 3! CTi has the best braces for athletes! Really glad to have a CTi brace after my recent surgery! Thanks guys!

Nitro City Panama!

So as an end of the season trip a group of us decided to head down to Travis Pastranas resort down in Panama, Nitro City! The group consisted of myself, JD Webb, Shawn Watson, Dirty Mike Dowdy, Jimmy LaRiche, Shane Bonifay, Danny Evans, Steel Lafferty, and a handful of others! The whole idea for the trip was to just go down and have a good time, and that we did! Probably one of the funnest trips aht I have been on. Here are a few pics from the trip and keep an eye out for the video edit from the trip coming out soon!

Minor Set Back

When involved with sports, especially extreme sports, injuries are just apart of the game. I've had a few bad ones but non that have put me out for a great deal of time. This past summer I blew my ACL in my left knee on a double up while doing a clinic up in Indiana. On July 12 I got surgery. ACL reconstruction with hamstring graph and a good chunk of my meniscus taken out. It has been a long road to recovery but with the support of my friends and family I have been getting back on the water now after 5 months of PT and rehab. Thanks everyone for the support and thanks to my new sponsor CTi for hooking me up!
