Those of you who have come to the camp know Bob from being coached by him, seeing him spin and flip into the lofty atmosphere behind one of the camp Malibus, or even from dining and enjoying his delicious culinary creations. If you haven’t yet met the 2012 cover rider, you can easily fix that by visiting us at The Wakeboard Camp!

Many people are too nervous to come here to the camp. Some people tend to think that everybody at the camp is at a pro level and that they will be laughed at for trying to do something new like ride outside of the wake. Kristin talks about how our system helps everybody learn at every level. Here is an excerpt:

I was nervous, like anyone can be, learning something new– especially along side the other campers who were there to learn tricks like the Backside 360, 540, Scarecrow, Tantrum… none of which I had a clue much less would I dream of learning. In spite of the butterflies in my stomach, I was determined to learn how to wakeboard more confidently.

We went out for our first ride, and our second, and third and in the blink of an eye the five days had passed and we had ridden a total of 15 sets (more than I’d typically ride in one summer)! Gone were the butterflies and my skills and confidence quadrupled.
It was on the trip home that I realized how much my experience mirrored elements of the ideal learning experience. Here are some thoughts on what made it ideal.

Thanks Kristin and Tim!

But first we have a quick little video of Bob with all kinds of angles. He strapped a GoPro camera to himself and his handle and just about anything else they could think that could handle a mounted GoPro. Check out the video right here:

And now thumb through the issue of Wake Journal!

Those of you who have stayed here before will remember the old layout, which was pretty dark and closed in. Now they are very open with fresh paint, brand new beds, and plenty of wakeboard nostalgia all over the walls!

(The Wakeboard Camp does not condone the shooting of guns and doesn’t include it in our program. That was an activity that these adult campers did on their own time.)
