wakeboarding

Double World Title holder, 2006 Australian Pro Tour Champion, and New Zealand National Champion, Jeff Weatherall has become part of the EPIC wake boat family.

It’s a sure sign that Epic boats are becoming are large part of the wakeboarding community.  With Jeff onboard Epic boats are about to make a well noticed statement in the wakeboarding community.   For the full press release see here.

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.
