Maliview - Malibu boats describes this as  “a dash with a view.”

So what is Maliview?  Well, pictures speak louder then words, and a movie is twice as good… so here’s a movie demonstrating the features of Maliview.

Still confused… well its a 6.5″ colour LCD screen in the dash of most 2009 Malibu boats, which gives the driver the ability to use the spead control, see ballast levels and much more… even the ability to watch videos in the boat.   Bring on the new 2009 boat models.

Want to see more? see the Malibu blog.

How big can you go?

Wake to wake over a boat?  … This guy can.

Get’s you pumped just watching it.

*****CONGRATULATIONS!*****

Congratulations goes out to Aussie girl, Amber Wing, who claimed the Air Nautique Nationals Pro womens title, making a back-to-back win.

In other results Phillip Soven took out the Pro mens having amazing sets with a near perfect score of 98.00.  As expected, Jimmy LaRiche took the Jr’s mens title – LaRiche also won the title last year.

Randall Harris, WSR - West Side Rider, who has riden for Gator boards has now signed with Company Wakeboards… who is Company Wakeboards I hear you ask?  I have no Idea, except they are a brand new wakeboard manufacturer, yet to release a board to the public.  Let’s just hope Randall has a board.

Stay tuned, we’ll keep you updated with products from Company Wakeboards as information unfolds.

Red Bull Blackout was created over 24 -28 September 2007 at Iowa’s Lake Okoboji.  While this news is considered old, such an event will last forever.

For those who don’t know, take two helicopters with massive spot lights, local amateurs, pro wakeboarders and wakeskaters Collin Harrington, Adam Errington, J.D. Webb, Brian Grubb and Reed Hanson, not to mention having to get clearance from the CAA to the local Department of Natural resources to break rules.  An event that looked like an escaped convict manhunt, is still considered one of the diverse wakeboarding movies to this date.

Sidewayz production crew filmed this premier, also allowing student film teams from Iowa State University and University of Northern Iowa to have create freedom.

EPIC boats have added pro wakeboarder Tony Carroll to their team.

Tony is sponsored by CWB, Body Glove, X Ray Eyewear, Tidal Audio, ETCO Marine, CIE, No Fear, Proline, and EPIC Boats.

Tony says “EPIC as a company is a bunch of cool people trying to better the sport we all love, what’s not to like about that? …Most companies are lacking that in some way or another. To me, that sets them apart.”

Epic boats manufacture a wake specific boat;  a 23V with 4,000 lbs of ballast, “Drop Zone” Wake Enhancing Hull Technology, Resin-Infused All-Composite construction, Dual Rudder “Vector Steer System,” 8-Speaker Transom Audio and many other features.  The boats are constructed in in San Deigo, California, and claim to have dealers in Australia – but i’ve been yet to see this boat anywhere.
if anyone knows of Australian dealers for this boat drop us a comment below.

Marek, the Rusty Malinoski Pro-Model 2009 Board.

Rusty and Hyperlite present a new addition to the Hyperlite D.I.N.E. line, the Marek.

Forget the tech talk the bottom line is this board is ridden by one of the best, so we’d expect the best.  Hyperlite adds ”this series is built to be the fastest, most responsibleride in the Hyperlite lineup.”   Board sizes are 136, 141, 146 with simple yet sophisticated graphics that should appeal to all.  All sizes have similar graphics featuring the following logo on a white deck.  The base again features the logo but with Hyperlite writing on a black background.

if you want the tech talk, which you probably do go to Hyperlite.

Oh… did we mention it is inlayed with carbon torsion zones.
