And not for being the Alliance ROTY, but because Dan can finally taste the sweet nectar that is alcohol. That’s right, Danny Hampson is 21 today.
Happy Birthday Dan, you finally made it to manhood. Cheers to you!!!! This one’s for you…

A HUGE CONGRATULATIONS TO DANNY HAMPSON!!!! Danny was just voted the ALLIANCE RIDER OF THE YEAR FOR 2008!!! Otherwise known as the 2008 ROTY. After recovering from two major injuries in the past two years, Danny came back with more heart and soul then anybody else ever has. This past year, Danny has had two very impressive video sections in both Push Process, the Oakley team video, and Volume Issue 7. If you have had not a chance to see Danny’s section in these video’s, I highly recommend it. Danny rides with more passion and pure fun then anyone in the sport of wakeskating or wakeboarding. Danny, we here at Liquid Force all love you!!! I am personally shedding a tear drop for you now… CONGRATS!!! You deserve it.

Returning from a trip to Mexico always is a dread because it usually means vacation is over. Well that again was the true feeling I felt after I returned from the 2nd International Gran Rio Bravo wakeboard contest in Reynosa, Mexico. Obsecura team riders, Aaron Reed and Stephan Schriever were on site to judge the wakeboard contest, along with Phillip Soven, fellow LF Canadian Didier Godbout and myself were there to shred our sticks in the contest. The ranch where the contest was held as was as beautiful as a homecoming queen, haha. But seriously the place was off the hook. Alot of the riders stayed in brand new onsite houses in which we were the first to stay there. The LF distibutor Luis Loaiza and Sergio took extra special care of everyone that rode in the contest. The wake that the guys had supplied could of been one of the biggest I had rode behind. The riding by all the divisions was very impressive and there are some serious shredders coming out of Mexico both girls and guys! They had a “Latin Open” division and about every rider that rode in that division went off. Alejo de Palma from Argentina, took the win for that division having some technical mobes and spins in his run. As for the pro division, Rusty took home the crown followed by Randall Harris, then Phillip, then myself and then a four way tie for 5th between Didier Godbout, Gabe Lucas, Trevor Hanson and JD Webb. Overall if anyone gets the chance to go wakeboard in Mexico, then hit up www.riobravowakecamp.com for an ultimate wakeboard experience. Special thanks goes out to Luis Loaiza and Sergio for putting together the event and showing everybody such a great time.

This past weekend Kyle Hyams took home 1st place at OWC’s Slide Spectacular. From sound of things, Kyle’s run was so spectacular they decided to name the event after his run. Not only did he take home the overall 1st palce trophy, he added to it by clinching one of the top three spots for the Best Trick portion of the event as well. Congratulations Kyle, job well done!!!!
