Day1 Wake Demo Day with Northwest Riders Clothing Company & Grizzly Sports

We’re teaming up with the good folks at Northwest Riders Clothing Company and Grizzly Sports to bring you a Demo Day on the North End of Lake Washington, Saturday October 13th 2012. While we’re stoked to share our products and the wakesurf experience, our real focus here is to raise donations in support of the “Friends of Justine Palmer Fund” to help Justine and RV Palmer (Grizzly Sports Owners) with their medical expenses as Justine fights cancer.

The Day1 Wake and Northwest Riders boats will be loaded with Day1 Boards and life jackets and we’ll run three sets of 90 minute sessions placing up to six riders in each boat. Beginner to Advanced, all are welcome! Head over to our Facebook Events page and sign up for one of the three spots (10am-11:30am, 11:30am-1pm, and 1pm-2:30pm) and head on down to Logboom Park and meet us on the dock. Please arrive 10-15 minutes ahead of your time slot and be ready to have a great session – RAIN or SHINE – it’s on!

Date: Saturday October 13th, 2012

Time: 10am-2:30pm

Cost: Suggested donation to the Friends of Justine Palmer Fund

See you on the wake!

This year the INT state championships will be taking place at Bow Lake. On Saturday the 18th, we will be hosting a night time Rail Jam featuring some of the area’s best rail riders. The event consists of the rail jam taking place under the stadium lights with judging based on a “five point per hit” scale. Bow Lake’s course has five features where riders will have two laps and 2 falls per round. 5 Riders will advance to the 2nd round and the two top scorers will advance to the finals in a head to head battle on one rail.

Through out the event, a canvas created from 12 Hyperlite wakeboards will be graffitied by two local artists. Following the rail jam, the mural will be divided and raffled off to the crowd. This event will also include a DJ spinning live music, catering provided by the WWU Waterski Team, and drinks provided by Seattle’s Redhook Brewery, Challenger Ridge Winery and Monster Energy.

The De-Railed Rail Jam will begin at 8pm and go until around 11pm. It will be $15 per rider and you can call and RSVP with Justin Huerter at 360-840-3411. Come out to Bow Lake on August 18th and hit some rails… or get De-Railed!

The weekend event kicks off on Friday with practice runs for registered competitors behind 2012 Centurion Enzo SV24X boats, the official competition boats provided by our exclusive towboat sponsor, Centurion Boats. The tournament will take place all day Saturday and Sunday, concluding with the awards ceremony on Sunday afternoon at Lake Tye Park.

Saturday, June 23:

Wakeboarding Competition – The wakeboarding comp will feature riders of all-ages and varying skill levels. The event will be towed by two Tige boats with each set up according to the division and riding level of the participants. Entrants will be able to ride in a safe environment and fees will be minimal so that all that want to ride get the chance to. A $30 fee will get each rider a 4-minute set behind the boat along with an event T-Shirt. Northwest Riders Clothing Co. will be covering the insurance fee for all riders on Saturday. Riders will be broken into divisions and heats with judges determining who places based on set scoring methods.
The divisions are:

Novice | Intermediate | Womens | Advanced | Open

Novice: 0 inverts or spins (360 is considered a spin, a 180 is not)
Women: Pretty self explanatory.
Intermediate: 1 to 3 different inverts or spins (doing the same trick 3 times still only counts as 1 invert or spin).
Advanced: 4-6 inverts or spins (no mobes)
Open: 7+ inverts or spins.

A $500 cash prize purse will be up for the Open division. Other divisions will receive prizes and giveaways for the top finishers in each classification.
