We were very excited to find out that we were going to be doing the poster for Queen of Wake this year. We shot over 3 days and we are very happy the way it turned out. Unfortunately because of the tight shooting schedule we weren’t able to show you everything that went on, but this video will give you the general idea.
Wake Games 2011 was this past weekend here in Orlando. Taking the top spot was our very own Amber Wing, followed by Megan Ethell and Nicola Butler in third.

Anna has been ridding really well this year and this morning was no different, she even through down a backside 5. Check it out!
We caught up with Anna during Surf Expo 2011 to give us a rundown on her new setup and find out what she will be up to this offseason.

Now nearly a year and half since her last professional contest, Copeland Durham returned to the pro wakeboard scene today by hitting the waters of Sparks Marina for the Pro Women’s division quarterfinals at the Air Nautique [...]
After a long and hot four days, Wake Games finally came to a close on Sunday, May 2. We were blown away by the organization of the event (big ups to Priscilla Scollin and the entire World Sports and Marketing team for a job WELL done), but also by the quality of the riding at all levels. The pool of Professional Women riders was 16 deep this year, with a six-rider final that included rookie Anna Hajek throwing it down [...]
