    Episode 12 - Brad Smeele

    Brad Smeele is a professional wakeboarder from New Zealand. After leaving home at 17 to pursue his dream of wakeboarding, Brad made a name for himself in the sport after claiming 2 junior world titles and being one of the first to land a 1080 behind the boat. Most will know Brad for being the first person in the world to land the double tantrum to blind and winning the 2014 trick of the year.  Whilst filming for "Prime" during a session at Lake Ronix, Brad took a bad crash trying the double to blind which left him without the use of his arms and legs. It was an honour to be able to have the opportunity to talk with Brad about how he dealt with the life changing result of the injury, overcoming some of the obstacles he faced and how he is now living life to the fullest despite his injury.

We were lucky enough to meet John at Plastic Playground in 2015 - and he’s been one of our closest friends ever since. Over the years we have known John, he is by far one of the most hard working wakeboarders, who is committed to growing the sport in whatever ways he can.

The following years would include competing in the several different European tours and was quickly picked up by a range of different sponsors. Over the years Matt has made a name for himself not only through his wakeboarding but also the multitude of roles he has played in the sport.

    Episode 8 - Mantis Pro Media

    Meet Jon Shrimpton and Sam Pascal - the duo you can find behind the lenses of Mantis Pro Media.  Jon and Sam first met at Liverpool Wakepark where the realised they shared a passion for creating content. After a few minor hiccups such as flipping a jetski whilst holding their equipment at their first shoot, Mantis were able to carve their name into the content creation world, shooting stunning photographic and video content. “It’s just two brothers really” was the first video project we shot with Mantis at the end of 2016 - and whilst the video was a success; we had a couple of major injuries on the side. Our relationship with Mantis has gone from strength to strength from then - and without them a lot of what we have accomplished would not have been possible. We were stoked to have the boys join us on the Podcast and we hope you enjoy listening too.

    Episode 7 - Lemonade Normal 🍋

    Unless you've been living under a rock you will have probably seen some of the insane content on Instagram being created by the crew that is Lemonade Normal. A crew made up of 4 people: Liam Rundholz, Gino Wetzels, Sam De Haan & Christopher Klein, Lemonade Normal have been getting out on the water and getting those close up follow cam shots that we all need in our life. Growing up wakeboarding together, filming one another was a big part of their paths to success. In November 2019, the boys decided to start "Lemonade Normal" with the goal of filming and posting regular, high quality wakeboarding content. As can be seen in their recent "Season 1" video on YouTube the content has been nothing short of amazing from the start. Liam and I were stoked to welcome Liam & Gino on the podcast to answer some questions we'd been dying to ask them:  - Where did the name "Lemonade Normal" come from? - How did you get those insane winching shots? - What are the next big projects you want to work on? Instagram: 't already, make sure to give Lemonade Normal a follow! We promise you, you won't regret it.  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lemonadenormal/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHhQ5RZSeribR427eKXBp2A

    Episode 6 - Agne Simanskyte

    Agne Simanskyte is, in her own words "a sophisticated mature entrepreneurial woman". After starting kiteboarding 12 years ago she was introduced into wakeboarding and quickly realised that she was very passionate about these board sports. As a result, Agne started to coach others to try and share the insane feeling of getting out on the water. Agne, as many others would agree; played a huge part in putting Lithuania on the map in the wakeboarding world. Agne was the main organiser of the RedBull Wake2El event in Lithuania which quickly became one of the most popular events within the wakeboarding world - notable for its laid back approach and all around good vibes. With the connections she made through travelling and her relationship with the hugely successful BoardSports shop in Lithuania, Agne founded BoardSports Club - a community for people who share their passion of board sports. Agne has become incredibly well known for the coaching camps that she runs which are a huge success. We are hosting a camp with Agne April 17th-24th at HipNotics cable park. The camps are packed full with plenty of wakeboarding, amazing people and all round good times. If you're interested in joining drop Agne a message to book your spot!
