Ask anyone who was there and they will tell you that Team CWB took the crown at this weekends stop on the King of the Wake Series. CWB team riders won titles in the Pro Men’s, Pro Women’s, and Junior Women’s divisions as well as the overall team title at the inaugural Air Nautique Wake Games in Lake Elsinore, CA. The Air Nautique Wake Games is a unique event in which a team concept is included within the event. Ten team captains, pro men, drafted 10 teams of five riders. Points won by individual riders will be totaled after Sunday’s final rounds to determine the winning team. Riders will also be going after individual titles in pro and amateur divisions. CWB would like to congratulate Andrew Adksion and Trevor Hansen for their two podium finishes this weekend. Adkison had a nearly flawless final run to edge out Tino Santori and fellow CWB team rider Trevor Hansen in the Pro Men’s final. The victory clinched the team championship for Team Adkison, barley toping the second place team captained by Hansen. The win puts Andrew 70 points ahead of second place JD Webb in the season long King of the Wake Series. Andrew is now leading the Pro Tour standings as well as the King of the Wake Series. CWB would also like to congratulate the dynamic-duo of the Hoffman sisters. Raequel and her sister Shawna are two of the most talented new women’s riders on the professional stage. Raequel, part of Team Adkison, came out of no-where killing it on the rails and going huge off the wake to knock-off local favorite Melissa Marquardt to win her first Pro Women’s title. Shawna Hoffman, Raequels younger sister and riding partner, threw down a huge run to distance herself from the field and win the Junior Women’s title going away. This was Shawna’s second Junior Women’s victory in as many tries. Don’t miss these two in the up-coming all female wakeboard/wakeskate DVD – The Chick Flick by DPC Films. CWB would once again like to congratulate our Athletes for their great performances over the weekend. We hope their strong riding will continue throughout the rest of the season.
