Having nothing better to do, I stubbled upon this new website/video blog at thewakecompound.net. It's pretty straight forward and simple (they kill it) by showcasing some cool videos of a selected group of sick riders (i.e. Bob Soven, Oli Derome, Rathy, Errington, LaRiche) in Florida. To me it seems like an appropriate "passing of the torch" with a new generation of wake riders establishing themselves as the future, just as Pointless Productions did just over a decade ago. Obviously this has been going on for a few years now, but it just seems that it is finally safe to say that wakeboarding, and most definitely wakeskating, have witnessed significant change (for better AND worse) in the last 2 years, and enough to say that it's progressed considerably outside the strict confines of boat. And if you don't believe me, well maybe you just haven't been around as long as I have...
POINTLESS mixtape 2 (just some shots) from pointless on Vimeo.
But Pointless will always be the reason I started to ride, and still ride today...just saying.
