Hi Guys

When i see vids like this it seems Aaron is in a league of his own, i heard a whisper the other day that he is now ranked 3rd in wake/cable now??

Quote/ Jr Walks [how many concaves does he have on his board?]
That is his new wake board, its due for release early next year.

Cheers,
Dan

He is good but there are far better people all over the world, go to your local cable or even go riding with a local ripper behind a boat and they would be better. This is deffinetly a rumour. The guys he would have to beat to be 3rd at boat or cable are insane.

p.s. That wake footage in this video shows that. The air tricks in the kiting part were freakin rad though.

Totally agree with Rowdy. The dedicated cable and boat wake riders are insane! There is definite crossover between wake style slider kiting and using a cable though.

Hadlow absolutely tears on the kite and some of the cable stuff on there takes the might out of the video for me.

Loving the work off the wave kickers.

It's Kelly slater all over again. The year off will make him more focussed, less stressed on results and The last time I saw someone hit kickers that well was Dre in Autofocus, awesome stuff.
Shannon Best, Discussed this in an interview." Kiteboarding and wakeboarding is all about the bar in relation to the hips".
Every time you see Aaron his passes are through his centre of gravity vertically and that is why good riders make it look so effortless.

Well said dave- he spins to the bar, he doesnt pull himself to it forcing it like a lot of the people you see on the PKRA- which I guess is the essence of wakestyle.

That Nick Davies video isn't the best one of him around.

I find kiters tend to get blown away with this video from Thai Wake Park:

The jib potential of kiteboarding is yet to be unlocked, on that note looking for some 40 gallon drums any one got some kicking around?

Haha Nice. I got to be there watching while he was hitting the JW slider at real and trowing down in the slicks. He really is a machine of a rider, just keeps going bigger and bigger.

It's called Youtube.com... Yes it has a similar name to Y0up0rn.com and essentially provides a similar experience, except it is focused less on porn.

I can think of lots of other things that are worse for your knees/ankles than parachuting out of the sky... Sometimes you just get unlucky with things, for some people its ankles, others it's knees, etc... we all have weak points.
I hope Ruben gets better soon and back to ripping it up, nice bloke.

Def has bad luck with his ankles though..... @ 8 minutes..

haha yer gota agree here.. that was a BIG BIG rumour to say he's top 3 in wake/ cable... maybe at his local pond or something but def not at a international, national or maybe even regional level. no offence to the bloke he definitely rides solid but i think if you throw him in an aussie comp he would have a stupidly hard time to even place top 10 in cable.

sick rider on kite though.
