REVISITING BEN LECLAIR IN THAILAND

Two Weeks in THAILAND from Johny Bonney on Vimeo.

To celebrate Ben Leclair's "official" signing to Slingshot Wake, thought I'd take a trip down memory lane. Two years ago Ben was fortunate enough to travel to Thai Wake Park with myself and Yan Tibo. We happily took him under our wing on the other side of the world. It was during this trip that I first came to notice the true potential of this kid - especially out of his comfort zone back at the Derome wake park in St-Zotique, QC. Between the three of us, Ben had no troubles logging footy and getting shot after shot! Consistency and style is something rarely a package deal nowadays, luckily this kid has worked hard on both fronts. ENJOY!

SUMMER SIX PACK! episodes 1+2

Slingshot is bringing a solid six pack of video edits to the party this summer. Episode 1 "Decade 1.6" features Jeff McKee who has been wakeboarding for the last 16 years, and is still finding new ways to keep it fresh and fun! Episode 2 "Viva la Texica" features a group of misfits, including my dude Ben Leclair, touring around Texas in an RV, nuff said. ENJOY!

Here's another instalment of "Lipsmack Residue" featuring Shredtown boy Davis Griffin, and some friends, most notably my friend Ben Leclair. Props to Weiland for finally giving Ben his shot at some exposure with Slingshot. He deserves this recognition especially after being snubbed from that Facebook Popularity joke of a 'contest'...real talk tho.

I don't really know what much else there is to say about this trip. I mean, hopefully this video speaks for itself in the sense that you've read all the blog updates, you've seen all the pictures, and you've seen the teaser. So ya, let's get on with it shall we. So without further ado, the boomboxdream.com is proud to present "Two Weeks in Thailand" featuring Ben Leclair, Johny Bonney, and Yan Tibo riding at Thai Wake Park. There is also a guest appearance by Daniel Grant. ENJOY!!

NEW EDIT "Two Weeks in THAILAND" starting to come together...

New edit: One week in Thailand!!!

One Week in THAILAND from Johny Bonney on Vimeo.

We've been here for over a week now and we've managed to film some okay stuff. Here's a little sample of what we got in the first couple of days. The video features myself (Johny Bonney) and my french partners in crime, Yan Tibo and Ben Leclair. 

We've had a lot of fun and plenty of laughs so far in just one week. There's a good crew of riders here from Thailand, France, Germany, Sweden, Denmark, and even Russia. The riding here is second to none, and with Bangkok so close there's never a dull moment. WE LOVE THAILAND!
