Loss of a Friend

News 15 June 2010 | 1 Comment

I got word last week about the tragic loss of one of my dear friends, Adam Vermillion. Adam was way more then just a friend to me, he was an inspiration. We both shared the great passion for wakeboarding and everything that goes with it. The fun in the sun and chilling with great friends.  He was always smiling and never had a negative thing to say about anything or anyone. This great guy has supported me from my begging stage and I can honestly say that without his support I wouldn’t be doing what I am today.  He has done so much for the sport of wakeboarding and that will never be forgotten!!! I cant thank him enough. God Bless Ya Bigs A!

As mentioned earlier this week, I have been hard at it training for this weekend’s upcoming King of Wake Pro Tour Stop at Acworth, GA. I’m super pumped and can’t wait to get out there and give it my all.  Here’s some footage that the wakeboardSTL crew put together of my Wake Games passes and it only lights my fire to stand up in Georgia. Enjoy!

Can’t wait to get back home too; it should be an awesome summer and I can’t wake to meet all of you out at Kirby’s School of Wake.
