Shortly after Harf and Malinoski landed their 1080s behind the boat, the first documented 1080 was landed on the cable on Sunday, October 15th at the first stop of the 4th Annual Slider Spectacular Series, presented by OWC and Wakeboarding Magazine.

Congratulations goes out to OWC team rider, Adam Errington, for winning the Rip It JX Series Championship. Adam has placed either 1st or 2nd at each tour stop except for the last one where he placed 5th. He accumulated enough points to win the series championship, edging out his good friend, Jimmy Lariche.

We've been watching these two battle it out for the last couple of years, whether it was in a slider contest or in the junior x series of the pro wakeboard tour. Look out next year as we might see these guys moving on to pro status.

Adam is currently on the cover of the October issue of Wakeboarding Magazine sporting a new wakeboard from the long awaited company, Ronix.

Pro cable and boat rider, Keith Lidberg, makes the cover of the June issue of Wakeboarding Magazine. This will be the second time Keith has been on the cover. What's so special about it this time? Look at the blue towers and notice there is no wake! That's right, this shot was taken on the cable at OWC!

This is only the second time a cable shot has been on the cover of the magazine. The first was back in the late 90's when Shannon Best was still wakeboarding.

If you're a WBM subscriber, you'll get the June issue around April 22nd. It won't hit the newsstands till the second week of May.

Congratulations Keith!

We just wrapped up the 2nd of 3 events in the Slider Spectacular Series. The 2nd event was the biggest turnout we've had so far with 74 entries in 9 divisions. The last event will take place on Sunday, November 6th. We've added a $15 late fee for late registrations on Sunday. Normal registration ends at 8pm on Saturday, November 5th. We added a "Sickest Trick Award" as part of our final event of the year. The Sickest Trick Award will be judged off the Big White kicker. We've chosen this ramp cause it's at the end of the slider course. You can throw down your normal routine and go all out for your last trick. Basically, whoever throws the best trick will grace the pages of Wakeboarding magazine.

The funbox is back and better than ever! We converted the top rail into a flat surface, replacing the round pipe surface. This should make it much easier to slide. Extra panels have been added to make the funbox more eye pleasing and to provide additional safety measures.
