Pro Wakeboard Tour 2011 in Monroe, WA


Join us this weekend July 8th and 9th for the Pro Wakeboard Tour at Tye Lake in Monroe. We’ll be hanging in the sun all day enjoying the view so come say hi!

The MasterCraft Pro Wakeboard Tour is the largest and most storied professional wakeboarding circuit in the world. Since it’s inception in 1992, the MasterCraft Pro Wakeboard Tour has attracted the sport’s most talented athletes every year to compete in the series points race for the Pro Tour title and will be at Lake Tye in Monroe, Washington on July 8th & 9th!

Athletes compete during the course of a season to be named Pro Tour champion based on a cumulative point system. Points are awarded to each athlete based on final placement at each stop. The highest total points-earner at the end of the season is crowned the winner.

The Pro Tour now qualifies roughly 80 athletes within three divisions (Pro Men, Pro Women and Jr. Pro Men) throughout the five-stop season. In 2011, The MasterCraft Pro Wakeboard Tour will visit Acworth, GA; Fort Worth, TX; Colorado Spring, CO; Monroe, WA; and Knoxville, TN.

Wakeboard Summer Dreaming Staff Pick

Summer Dreaming Staff Picks- comin’ at ya! Working at evo is like working at a chocolate factory: you are around chocolate all day, it’s just begging to be sampled (by you), you don’t really NEED to eat chocolate all day, but you would if you could. If our products were made out of chocolate we would all be in trouble, luckily they aren’t. But being around new gear all the time is as tempting as smelling delicious chocolate all the time. Summer Dreaming Staff Picks is like if you ate all that chocolate but didn’t pay for it, financially or health-wise.

Dock Daze Demo with Ronix Wakeboards at Radar Lake


P6145380

June 14th was the Seattle stop of Ronix’s 5 Gallons of Freedom Tour and also evo’s first stop of the Dock Daze private wakeboard demo series. There is not a much more fitting place for a private demo than on a private lake. Radar Lake is located at a top secret location deep in the suburbs of Western Washington and is the most-perfect man made wakeboarding and waterskiing lake you could ever imagine. There is always flat water, no other boats, and with Dock Daze: no other people.

CWB Wakeboards Gives evo a Factory Tour


P5245171

The other day evo got the call. The call to head behind the scenes of CWB Wakeboards and Connelly Waterskis to see what is really going down- how it’s made. If you have ever watched the show “How It’s Made” then you know that it’s the deadpan narration that makes everything being made seem boring. Well let’s just say that being there in person and watching a waterski go from liquid foam and graphic sheets to a shred-able ski is pretty cool- and loud.
