Chase Tydings reviewed our camp, along with five others in Florida, for www.DCWake.com. If you want to learn a little more about us from a customer’s point of view, click HERE . It’s a great source for learning about and comparing some of the wakeboard camps in the area. The review is very well written, almost totally unbiased (we tried to pay him), and very accurate. We have to say that because we were the only one in the class to get an A (on the 10 pt. scale, of course.)

Thanks to Chase for all of the kind words and converting to wakeskating! Nice Shuvit!!!

On June 25th, Derek married Michelle Moretti at the Berkeley City Club in Berkeley, California. It was a beautiful wedding with all of Derek and Michelle’s closest friends and family there to celebrate. There were a few special things to note about the wedding. Sean was a one of Derek’s groomsman, which was funny because it was a little weird to see them in something other than boardshorts. Magnus Johansson and Rebecca, our first customers and close friends, came all the way from Sweden to show their support. Also, Erich Schmaltz, Integrity’s owner, was there to celebrate the big day.

Check out our MEDIA GALLERY for some great photos of the wedding weekend and honeymoon. The photographer, Dave Getzschman, was amazing and graciously gave us permission to use these on our site. You can also check out the wedding slideshow on Dave’s website, www.davegetzschman.com. Click HERE to see the Wedding Slideshow.

Please check out this VIDEO of Orlando Wakeboard Academy’s own Current Hottie, Sean O’Brien. His good looks and charm won him a spot on Current TV, a national network that is distributed into 20 plus million homes, as their Current Hottie. The video is well edited with good music and also has a few embarrassing questions. Thanks “funky man” for representing the sport well and plugging the camp!

PS Since I’m sure all you ladies are wondering, Sean is SINGLE, again!!!

Over the past three years, Sean has taken his riding to new levels. In our Media Gallery we have his web videos from ’02 to ’05. While being consistently technical and innovative, each video shows Sean’s progression on a wakeboard.

Along with getting our camp off the ground this summer, Sean has been pushing his riding to a new level. This is a clip of just a few things he’s been working on, with an extra little surprise at the end. Keep checking back with us to see Sean pushing it even further in the next few weeks.
