wakeboarding

Something about this advert – I just can’t get it out of my head perhaps it’s the art, the technicolor, perhaps it’s just so… Lidberg.  So i thought I’d post it.

The JStar 2009 wakeboard collection is made up of 7 boards.  With riders like Lidberg, Weatherall and Ike the team has so much credibility it makes you basically a pro just for riding a Jstar board.  JStar has created a truly impressive range for 2009!

Lidberg: Keith Lidberg’s 2009 board is not for the faint hearted – it’s a wild board, with clean white lines – designed to sit higher in the water, cut faster and made for rail abuse.  If you like rails get this board – you’ll be damaged before it is.

Brigade: Jeff Weatherall’s new board for 09 is sure to impress with designs built off his old TItan. It has the flat top, improved rail design and like Lidberg’s is designed to sit higher in the water.  Jstar notes that this is an easy carving mellower edge turn.   For those who are hardcore enough, but want to carve like driving a Volvo, welcome to the dark brigade.

Region: Brett “Ike” Eisenhauer’s 09 wakeboard graphics are simple but modern.  But who cares about the graphics, if your riding Ike’s board, you’ll probably be pro within the year.  It is designed for explosive pop  and quick cuts with sharper rails.   If you’d like to drive a Ferrari try this out first.

Vanity: Thank goodness Jstar needed a retro board for the 09 collection and  Jack Blodgett has delivered, releasing the most stylish retro/arty board for the 09 JStar range.
Following lines of the Conformity (Jstars most popular lines ever made) this board will help all novices become pro – it’s a friendly shaped board with progressive continuous shaped rocker.

Republik: You should only be buying the Republik if that all you can afford, have no style, and really don’t care what your friends think, and really  don’t care about progressing your wakeboarding.  Maybe I’m being a little to harsh…  I do semi-like the graphics

Muse: For “the wild ladies” that like to ride long, big and play dirty…  This is the ultimate girls’ wakeboard by JStar.

Ruby: Take your girlfriend out on this gem, she’ll love the easy stable ride.

J-Star’s 2009 wakeboard lineup includes four pro model boards and two women’s boards. The four pro model boards are team riders Keith Lidberg, Jeff Weatherall, Jack Blodgett and Brett Eisenhauer.

The fanatics board for 2009 is team rider Keith Lidberg’s, the Lidberg Series.  Keith is well known for smashing sliders, kickers and just plain going big. J-Star notes that this board can handle anything Lidberg can.

J-Star’s 2009 Boards sneak peak from the Surf Expo:

The boards on the left are the Lidberg Series.   The center board and the wakeboards on the right are Jeff Weatherall’s Brigade Series.    Lidberg’s base graphics are a truely sick and very in-line with other 2009 wakeboards, the top white sheet allows the personal touches of stickers etc.   This board looks sweet.

If Weatherall’s wakeboard, Brigade series, can handle everything Weatherall throws at it, this board is going to be tip-top.

Stay tuned for feature information of Jack Blodgett (Vanity Series) and Brett Eisenhauer (Region Series) when released.  Jobe Sports Europe is releasing the 2009 catalogue during October.
