Worlds Results
Congratulations to all friends and staff of The Wakeboard Camp at both Worlds competitions this past weekend! The WWA Worlds went down in Orlando at OWC and IWSF had theirs on the very same weekend on the other side of the world in Chuncheon, Korea. Here are some results for ya:
WWA Worlds in Orlando
- Michaela de Waern – 2nd Pro Women Wakeskate
- Amber Wing – 3rd Pro Women
- Kurt Robertson – 6th Masters
- Matt Doke – 4th Jr. Boys
- Bryan Kryzda – 5th Jr. Men
- Paulie Koch – 4th Boys
Those are just a handful of competitors who have helped make The Wakeboard Camp a fun place to be. Other riders that made good showings were Hayley Smith, Marcos Torres, Darren Bishop, and Kaesen Suyderhoud. There are many more as well, so great job to everybody! It was sweltering hot in Orlando, and everybody put up some real impressive stuff.
Now, here are some results from the other side of the world:
IWSF Worlds in Korea
- Raequel Hoffman – 1st Pro Women
- Shawna Hoffman – 5th Pro Women
- Bec Gange – 6th Pro Women
Great job to the Hoffman sisters and Bec for making the finals in her first pro event. Chris Dunn also made it past the first round with his buttery smooth style. Word is that the wind was pretty fierce over there, so great job toughing it out everybody.
Amber Wing Riding the Amazon
It’s time for another video with The Wakeboard Camp’s own Amber Wing! This time Oakley brings us footy from Amber’s trip to the largest river in the world, the Amazon. She managed to stay in the air long enough to avoid getting eaten alive by piranhas and all the other critters swimming around in the water. Enjoy!
