Women's Snowboarding Icon Gretchen Bleiler to...

Pay close attention to the finals of women’s snowboard Superpipe at X Games on Saturday evening. You’ll see the future of the sport in the likes of Chloe Kim and Arielle Gold. You’ll also see one of the most influential women the sport has ever known. She’s introduced new tricks. She’s won five X Games medals. She has an Olympic medal. And on Saturday evening, Gretchen Bleiler will drop into the X Games Superpipe for the final time. “I’ve been competing in the halfpipe for 17 years,” says Gretchen when she stopped by the Oakley suite the day after announcing her retirement. “I’m not necessarily done with snowboarding, but I think I’m ready to be done with halfpipe competition because I’m ready for new things.” Admittedly,...Read More

Sets In Motion

The motives are not modest: Sets In Motion will be the most progressive women’s wakeboard project the sport has ever seen. The project isn’t to promote any one brand or any one athlete – it’s meant to showcase the best that these world-class female athletes have to offer. The outcome, as you will see, is an all-female, multi-media project, filmed at locations around the globe, with the best women’s wakeboarders exceeding even their own limits – both on and off the water.

The idea is to inspire the current generation, along with future generations, by giving these women a platform to reach deep into their bag of tricks and demonstrate just how deep the talent well goes. The series will include the top women’s athletes along with up-and-coming talents in a multiple webisode series format, filmed throughout the 2012/2013 season and packed with action and progression.

 “Women’s wakeboarding has progressed so much over the past few years, but there really isn’t a platform for us to showcase it,” said Amber Wing, who recently landed a trick (the double-flip) that some of the guys haven’t yet mastered. “I wanted to create something for Women in Wake with no focus on an individual girl or sponsor – I want to work with every athlete and all of the supporting sponsors. I wanted to have something that helps to motivate the girls and in turn progresses the sport by bringing new tricks to the stage to excite our fans even more."

We flew into Monterrey City Mexico, this was my first trip to Mexico, i didnt know what to expect. It is a beautiful city and the people are all so nice, we had a great time with great riding.
I would like to thank Rene for hosting us over there and putting on the first Monterrey Wake Jam.
