Surf Expo Fall 2011 | Photos

13 Sep

Home of Surf Expo

We were busy as bees inside this big building

We just returned from an awesome week at Surf Expo. In case you haven’t been before, here’s the skinny. Surf Expo is a tradeshow for all the surf, wake and skate companies to show their new stuff in front all the shops on the East Coast and surrounding areas. The show takes place in Orlando Florida inside the Orange County Convention Center. We set up a booth and show all our new watches to any of the buyers of the shops who are interested. It’s a lot of work, but a lot of fun at the same time. As you can see from the photos below, there are all sorts of stuff going on from indoor wakeboarding (check out Tarah Mikacich) to models hanging out free swag to cool products like the Skullcandy X Converse collaboration. But of course, the coolest thing going down was the new Shark Watches. We’re already looking forward to Surf Expo January 2011.

Pro Wakesurfer

Even though they are landlocked, the crew at Slayshtank never takes a day off from surfing. They hold down their love for surfing by riding waves via boat wake, and they do it right. Want proof, here’s a picture perfect example of how wakesurfing is done right. Peep these photos of Chase Hazen wakesurfing from photographer Bradford King. Hopefully you’re enjoying your weekend as much as these guys. freestyleusa.com

A couple weeks ago, I think it was Tuesday, March 15th Justin Fisher gave us a call to come out and shoot a sketchy rock spillway with the West Side Riders. Of course, Nick Meistrell dropped all his office responsibilities and bolted out to meet up with the crew consisting of Melissa Marquardt, Eddie and Jacob Valdez, Randall Harris and Fish. Here are some of the photos Nick captured from the day. Keep your eyes peeled for a video edit dropping soon on Alliance Wake.

Collin Harrington ACL tear recovery

Collin Harrington ACL Surgery

ya Doc, how long is my knee supposed to bleed?


Collin Harrington just put together a really cool edit of his world over the past 6 months calling it “A Six Month Detour”. If you’ve ever had ACL Surgery you know that’s about the least amount of time it take until you are back in action. What’s cool about this edit is Collin takes you behind the scenes into doctors offices and his physical training regiment all the way through to his first time back on a wakeboard. Sprinkle is some of the most stylish riding you’ll ever see, some surf action, and you’ve got Collin Harrington’s six month detour.
