Kaesen Suyderhoud

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

Kaesen Suyderhoud As wakeboarders, many of us are concerned with doing fun and difficult things on a wakeboard, but would like to be able to add a unique flavor of personal style to those things. Just last year, Kaesen Suyderhoud started showing up all over pages, whether they were on paper or the internet, demonstrating his own interpretation of style.

If you were at The Wakeboard Camp last summer, you may have had the chance to see Kaesen (among many others) ride in person. You’ll know what we’re talking about when we say that he has his own unique style which is very fun and inspiring to watch.

For further evidence, check out his recent photo gallery over on Wakeworld.com: Kaesen Suyderhoud photo gallery.

Spring Break is Here

Monday, March 15th, 2010

In this first week of Daylight Savings Time, The Wakeboard Camp has awaken! We are banging on all cylinders as we are wakeboarding with a great group of dedicated riders from Oklahoma, Texas, the Netherlands, and some places in between.

Riders of all ages are here with us to enjoy the spring time weather. Kyle Schmidt and the coaches, including Amber Wing and Ben Greenwood, will be behind the wheel all week teaching everybody to get that new bag of tricks.

Thanks to the Dokes for putting together a great group of riders. Also thanks go out to those with us who came on their own. It’s one of those great TWC weeks, come join us some time this spring to see what you’re missing out on!

Bob’s Box

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

Recently, our own Bob Sichel spent a little time updating his towable box. He made it super streamlined, lighter Lose Weight Exercise, and changed the color scheme, all new for 2010!

So he hit the lake with our friends Kevin Henshaw and Danny Harf to test out the new setup. Kevin and Danny had some great hits on it for their first run with the box. Each of them had a pretty scary near painful experience. Bob, being the expert of his own design, showed the possibilities of what can be done with some plywood and a bunch of 2×4′s floating on a big old tube. Check out the video below that was captured by Alliance’s Patrick Wieland.
