South Florida Wakeboarding Association

The 2009 SFWA Pros and Joes Wake event is complete and we are proud to say it was huge success.  The weather was perfect as the temperature hovered around 85 degrees all day with a slight breeze and clear skies.  The crowd was amped with an estimate of almost 1,000 spectators filtering through the event throughout the course of the day.  The vendors and sponsors put on an excellent show as they displayed the latest and greatest products.  Finally, and probably most important, the riding from both the pros and the Joes was unbelievable.   This is the fourth event hosted by the SFWA and with each event the bar is raised and the level of riding showcased is both impressive and a testament to the level of talent in South Florida.

Everyone, please check this spot regularly as the rail is getting closer to completion each day. New pictures will be forth coming. Hopefully the rail will be in the water within the next couple of days after the small setback. As you can see the plywood is back on and everything is moving forward. Enjoy. – Jimmy B.

It was exicting to see everyone come out for the membership meeting on Saturday. It was by far the best attended membership meeting event we have had to date (upwards of thirty plus members). It is just exciting to think about the direction that this organization is going!!! Unfortunately we weren’t able to ride Saturday because of storms and lighting in the area but it did give us the opportunity to interact with each other and talk about the upcoming event. However, as stated Mother Nature did win out and we had to leave early under dark skies, heavy, heavy rain and lighting. So at this point in the day the score was SFWA 0, Mother Nature 1.
