Put on your cowboy hat and bring your boots, Austin Texas is showcasing the top 16 college wakeboard teams in the country! In just one year, Empire Wake has changed the world of college wakeboarding and given it a face, a name, and a national championship that will have one team yellin’ YeeHaw!
On April 15th Austin will come alive with wakeboarders from every corner of the country to compete in a bracket style, head to head format much like the sweet 16 of the NCAA March Madness. Each team will bring their top 8 riders to score a combined team total. The team with the highest score moves on to the next round and the loser is on shore watching!

Don’t let that fool you though. There is so much going on all weekend that there is no reason to go home early. Shadowbox is hosting a big air double up contest for the riders going the biggest, and Red Bull some after parties you’re sure to forget.

Texas Ski Ranch has their hands in this event as well. Friday is open to all Collegiate Wake Series riders free of charge from 6pm ‘til we can’t pull anymore. There will be a huge party open to everyone who wants to attend offering live music, a bikini contest and giveaways.

Every evening will bring social events downtown for all the riders to get together and make some new friends. We teamed up with the one company that knows how to do this best: RED BULL.

Interested? Check out EmpireWake.com Collegiate Wake Series for the full schedule of the event. If you just can’t seem to make it away from your computer this weekend then check us out on Stokemeter.com at 2pm EST on Friday and Saturday.

Big thanks for Liquid Force, the only board company to step up and support these collegiate teams in their championship run. They will be hooking up the winning team with some gear to take home and help grow there club to an even better level in 2010.

Cowboy up! It is time to crown the best team in Collegiate Wakeboarding!

The ribbon cutting ceremony of Liquid Force’s custom in-store build out at Texas Ski Ranch is just one example of how these two behemoths have continued to grow together over the years. Liquid Force has been a strategic partner of TSR since the beginning, and the two have only grown closer throughout the past few years.

Liquid Force is the exclusive wakeboard, wakeskate, binding, and helmet of Texas Ski Ranch Cable Park. For 2010, Liquid Force has created three new collaborative Witness Grind wakeboards and two helmet designs, all exclusive to TSR. These custom products will all be featured in the TSR demo room and the white LF/TSR helmets are available at the pro-shop in LF’s new build out.

Liquid Force VP of Sales and Marketing Don Wallace stated “”From day one of our partnership with TSR, we’ve been having a great time together. Whether we’re doing a “design a rail” contest, building special TSR exclusive products, or working on new events like our “Free For All”, the focus continues to be about finding more ways to have fun. It’s hard to find a place in the world that offers more affordable good times on the water than TSR and that’s why we’re happy to be partnered up with their crew!”

Cable champion and Liquid Force team rider Tom Fooshee calls TSR home, and had this to say about the partnership “TSR and Liquid Force is an ultimate combination! Everything that the two have teamed up on has been done top notch! These guys will continue to bring the most innovative products to the most elite park in the world. They both get bigger and better every year, and I am so stoked to be a part of it!”

Cablestock is coming to TSR May 7-9, featuring many of the world’s best riders and a special performance by Mickey Avalon…You don’t want to miss this! For more info, head on over to www.texasskiranch.com/cablestock
