Kenosha, Wis. — One of the largest and most prestigious action-sports events on the planet is debuting at Prairie Springs Park in Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin, when the Rockstar Energy Drink WWA Wakeboard World Championships, presented by Supra arrives at Lake Andrea on Aug. 16-19. More than 200 professional and amateur wakeboarders and wakeskaters from across the globe will compete in the 19th annual invitation-only event for a shot at a world title.

I would like to preface this by saying Kyle Alberts is one of my favorite people. That being said, this is hilarious. Kyle gets his shot at Live TV during the Milwaukee Boat Show and wouldn't you know it, the winch driver goes too fast, the deck is sticky, or whatever happened that led to this tragic yet awesome live moment...

All I can say is this dude is awesome. Sure, he's not on a wakeboard. Sure, that construction helmet probably didn't help matters. No, maybe he didn't have a plan on what he was going to do when he hit the land, but you have to pay the price for innovation. This guy is an inspiration to us all. In someone in this videos words: "Give 'er!"
