In the UK we have some of the best riders in the world and finally someone has decided they are going to make a UK cable wakeboard film! The riders featured in this film will be Nick Davies, Gary Stelfox, James Young, CK Koester, Kirsteen Mitchell, Steph Caller, Lewis Cornwall, Dec Clifford, Alex Newman, Jo Andrews, Matt Price, John Busby, Pete Ward and more. Just to top it off this film will be available free from it’s website www.IceCreamMovie.com in Spring of next year.
Here’s the trailer for the video and it looks like its going to be a great film and here a WakeEmpire.com we can’t wait:
Christian Koester a.k.a. CK is a rider who has been around the UK wakeboard scene for a long time and has always been sick. A lot of you have probably heard of him and seen him ride and will know he has got loads of tricks and more importantly has bucket loads of style and here at WakeEmpire.com he is definitely one of our favourite riders to watch. He recently won the UK cable nationals and now has been back down at his stomping grounds, which is JBSki and has been the newest UK rider to be throwing 1080s consistently and has made a conscious effort to not start spinning on the kicker as a lot of people are doing and some would say are cheating slightly! Aaanyway here is the video showing his 100% legit toeside 1080 and some of his heelside 1080 attempts, hope you like it:
Recently at Box End in Bedfordshire it was the 3rd round of the Relentless UK Pro Tour. On the same day it was the Cable Nationals so some of the UK’s top cable riders where there to show off their skills. There was some great riding in both the women’s and men’s comps but it was Kirsteen Michelle who took the women’s title. In a really close final it was CK who took the win in the men’s with a sick run, which left Nick Davies in 2nd and Gareth Stelfox coming in 3rd.
