Carolina Wake Series 2008

For the fourth year in a row, the Carolina Wake Series is gearing up for another exciting season, bringing the finest East Coast wakeboarding and wakeskating to the masses. "2007 was a huge year for us," says Rob Mendieta, Events Director and CWS founder. "The bar was definitely raised last season, and we've been working harder than ever this winter to make sure we raise it again in 2008!"

Not only will they be hitting the hottest riding spots throughout North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee, but Mendieta and staff have added a seventh event, which rolls through Chesapeake, VA on June 21st.

"Everyone's psyched for the Chesapeake stop," Mendieta says. "There's a great riding scene up there and we're looking forward to meeting some new people and visiting some places we haven't been yet."

Many of the tour's sponsors from previous years have returned, including Red Bull, Malibu, Smith Optics, Mastercraft, Dragon Sunglasses, and Buywake.com. Combined with support from newcomers UGP and Hyperlite Wakeboards, 2008 promises bigger crowds, better prizes, and larger purses than ever before!
