Featured Rider: Evan Miller, Wakeboarder Age and Where You Live: Memphis, 22 Email: millertimetj@bellsouth.net Where do you ride, and what do you like about riding there: You can normally catch me and my crew slashing through the buttery waters of the Tennessee Tombigbee. It is connected to the Tennessee River. We normally ride there because it's always butter period. It is a man made channel with trees on both sides to break up the wind. Beautiful scenery and you could ride all the way to the gulf of Mexico if you wanted. How long have you been riding, how did you get started, what are your favorite tricks to do, and who do you ride with: I have been riding for 5 years now, but consistently for about 3. It all started for me when my buddy Jacob invited me to the lake to try wakeboarding and I was all: "whatever I'll bring my seadoo and mess up all the good water doing doughnuts and might try to board." As soon as I got up though I was hooked. Jacob had already been doing it for a few years and he really got me amped to ride watching him. My favorite trick to do is anything way out into the flats. I usually ride with a smaller crew when we are really focusing on riding which consists of my friend Morgan (King of the Fashion Air) who's progressed super fast and my buddy who got me riding J Henn.(Jacob) Of course you always gotta have a few chicks rollin on the boat...It's the best motivation to push yourself to try new tricks! What do you enjoy most about boarding. Any other information you would like to add. What do you ride, your favorite riders, any sponsors, what you do in your free time: What I enjoy most about wakeboarding is just having fun. To me it's all about getting out on the water with a few good friends and riding. Always trying new things and finding new places to ride but it all comes back to having fun. If you aren't having a good time you aren't really riding. A few of my favorite riders are Keith Lyman, Chad Sharpe, Danny Harf, and Aaron Rathy- guy has been killing it lately. Special SHOUT-OUT to Brian and Diane at Pickwick Watersports. They always hook it up! Emails are only to be used for contacting to ride with. |
