    MyWake Finals LIVE in Orlando

    We are in Orlando and had lots of fun at the Surf Expo and now are preparing for the MyWake Live Finals in Orlando at Buena Vista Water Sports on Lake Bryan. Amazing location, I am extremely stoked!


    Here are the white sand volleyball courts as you walk into the cabana and viewing beach area.

    Outside the cabana toward the lake you can see the tiki bar where refreshments will be served over the entire event. You can see the lake behind it, the course is just out to the left.

    Just outside the cabana on the beach is this viewing area.

    Here is the dock where the riders will be launching from during the event as seen from the beach outside the cabana.

    This is a view from the water looking at the viewing area and the corner of the cabana on the left. We will be doing the live broadcast from under that corner of the cabana and Dano the Mano will be doing the MC duties for the entire event. The dock is behind and to the right.

    Here is a picture straight out to the lake from the beach. Course is about 20 feet deep.

    Here is a great picture of the cabana from the outside, I have never broadcast from such a beautiful place, stoked!

    This is under the cabana, awards will be held under her at the end. This is setup for a wedding I think, not sure how it will look at the event but I am sure it will be top notch based on all I have seen from World Sports & Marketing.

    Sean Dishman is showing me the dock. There will be a full film crew here and will be interviewing riders after there runs in this location.

    Pretty amazing, I met with the head of the film crew, and its going to be top notch, they will have a videographer in the boat along with a couple on the beach, etc. Cool for me to see wakesurfing treated at the same level as wake boarding.

    Lastly, check out this video of some of the highlights of the online event, and most of these pro riders will be out. Make sure you watch live tomorrow! (Monday 9/10).

    Very cool Ragboy.

    It looks like there might be a tubing competition as well, from the last pic.

      ALLEY GATORS!

      This is where we separate the boys from the girls.

      Gotta love that Coke color water too, can't see dem cold blooded lizard bastards coming from behind when you fall.

      RJ is looking a little queezy nervous I'd say.

          @nobody lol, that's pretty funny. The water is actually very blue since its pretty deep, just that color very close to shore. Beautiful place.

                  RJ should get an award just for bravery. It's real creepy knowing there are 14 footer everywhere.

                              Pray for good weather! That schedule is updated on the site, basically we start at 10am, surf, lunch, board, skate. Can't sleep, party last night was cool seeing best riders from all 3 sports in one place.
