See CWB team riders Clay Fletcher, Gabe Lucas, Trevor Hansen, Andrew Adkison, Josh Twelker and more ride CWB's 2012 wakeboarding gear.

Watch CWB riders Andrew Adkison, Trevor Hansen, Gabe Lucas, Zane Schwenk, Bryan Hutton, Clay Fletcher, Derek Grasman and Jimmy Trask combine to create the first multi-rider switch Raley sequence. Kudos to Fletcher for taking that brutal faceplant at the end.

On a Wednesday in December, photographer Joey Meddock headed out to Cypress Gardens, Florida, with Jimmy Trask, Jeff House, Derek Grasman and Bob Sichel. Nowadays, the gates of the famous park are closed, the water ski stadium is empty, but the mystic feel is still in the air.

CWB Board Co. recently unveiled its 2010 website, ridecwb.com. The new site features CWB’s entire 2010 line of wakeboards, wakeboard bindings, wakeskates, wakesurf boards and more. The new ridecwb...

This weeks blog isn't so much a blog or editorial-style article as it is a big thank you to everyone who has ever read my words on here or on my own website. The wakeboarding industry is a very close community...

There are a countless number of tricks in wakeboarding. If you think about it, it really is endless. A year ago everyone thought a backside 1080 and a frontside 1260 were impossible, and then they both happened, thanks to Danny Harf and Sir Aaron Rathy...

A lot of pro wakeboarders do clinics in the summer. These sorts of things are kind of like coaching sessions.

How can this be our paradise? I think paradise is all in the eye of the beholder...

It’s been a busy and productive few weeks for me. I came back from Panama City, Florida, two Sundays ago and was up early Monday morning to start shooting for the 2010 MasterCraft Rewind DVD...

In wakeboarding, there are a lot of debates going on — debates that will never end and will always be repeated. Debates about where you should grab your board or how you should spin. And while it seems like a bad thing, in all actuality, I feel like this may be one of the greatest things about wakeboarding...

We have hit a new era in wakeboarding. Or action sports in general. This is the era of the instant media overload. I remember back in 1999 Parks Bonifay landed the first 1080 ever done on a wakeboard...

My name is Derek Grasman, and this is my weekly blog for WAKEBOARDING magazine. I am not the reigning King of Wake — that’s Aaron Rathy’s job. I am not the Best Wakeboarder of 2009 or World Champion either...
