TM Extreme Playgrounds

My biggest wish was clear runs from all four riders, especially from the first two, who are fighting really tight through all season. Unfortunately it wasn’t Mike’s day or it wasn’t just his place, so after he felt on two tricks only thing what Tom had to do was a clear and safe run for the first place… Overall rankings are done… Tom Fooshee first, Mike Ketellapper second, Sam Collins third, Donald Shelbrick fourth and Emil Tzolov fifth!

WWA Wake Park World Series - Copenhagen
- I needed to take early flight cause I wanted to spend my time in Denmark, Copenhagen, the longest as I can... I had one stop in Munich, one of my favorite towns… where I couldn’t avoid a short shopping, which was enough for whole weekend. After 2 flights which lasted hour and half and delay about 40 minutes I was finally at the Copenhagen airport, catching first taxi which will take me to the cable… As always I didn’t research anything about this country, so it was pretty big surprise when I saw sandy beaches out of plane… Like I wasn’t on the north…
Pro Wakeboard tour stop number 5: Reno

Pro Wakeboard tour stop Reno by Austin Hair
- Well that’s it. The US pro tour is finished for the season, and it concluded in Reno, NV. I can’t believe how early it finished this year. I have to say Reno is a good place to hold the final stop. When you’re not at the site there is plenty to do at the casino. I gave myself a $100 budget at the casino, and ended up doubling it the first night. From there I went up about $30 more dollars. I’d say that’s pretty good considering a few of my friends went in the hole about $1000. But I wasn’t looking to earn a ton of money, just for some entertainment each night.

Darin Shapiro
If you didnt alreay know it, Shapiro is one of the forefathers of our sport and still the most dominant athlete wakeboarding has ever seen.
- 11.8.2008
Darin Shapiro
- Many of us have watched Wake through its evolution to see that some faces are clearly burned into its history to the point that they are almost sport-defining. That is Darin Shapiro. Shapiro still possesses every ounce of the wake prowess that made him the winningest wakeboarder in the sports history. If you do not know who Shapiro is, punch yourself in the face right now. You call yourself a wakeboarder? Okay, enough tough talk. Here is a history lesson: Shapiro made up about 80 percent of the maneuvers done on a wakeboard today (well, the base tricks at least), and he did it on a directional board with sandal straps behind an un-weighted boat with the rope anchored at hip level. Shapiro also went huge. Shapiro still goes huge.

European Cable Wakeboard Championship 2007
Almere, Netherlands, 17.08.
After 22 hours trip we came far away from our country, to Netherlands, Almere, where European Championship will be held. Of course, every time when I bring my tent to sleep in, it has to rain, and like this was last two nights, but at least, we had some parts of the day where we could be without our unbrellas. One day we spent getting used to the camping place, with the nice bbq in German "area"... And the day after, after having some training sessions few of us went sightseeing of Amsterdam... bus, train and we were there in a too crowded, too coloured and too loud town... I imagined the town will be more silent, but maybe when you smoke one or two it became like this ;)
Nakon 22 sata putovanja, bili smo daleko od naše države, u Nizozemskoj, Almereu, gdje će se održati Europsko prvenstvo. Naravno, svaki put kada donesem svoj šator, mora padati kiša, kao i prošle dvije večeri, no barem smo preko dana imali neko vrijeme bez naših kišobrana. Jedan dan smo proveli navikavajući se na kamp sa odličnim roštiljem u njemačkom "području"... a dan iza, nakon par treninga neki od nas su otišli razgledati Amsterdam... autobus, vlak i bili smo u zgužvanom, šarenom i preglasnom gradu... zamišljala sam ga puno tišim, no kada popušiš jedan ili dva, vjerojatno postaje tako ;)

Trening i prehrana???
Kako se hraniti prije, za vrijeme i poslije treninga?
Svaki oblik tjelovježbe zahtijeva energiju koju tijelo dobiva i koristi u obliku kalorija. Količina kalorija potrebna za tjelesnu aktivnost ovisi o nekoliko čimbenika uključujući godine, spol, razinu tjelesne spremnosti te intezitet i trajanje aktivnosti.
- Clubs&Training
Prehrana sportaša
Žitarice, proteini, voda...što je na prvom mjestu?
Baviti se sportom kao hobijem zalog je za kvalitetniji i duži život, no vrhunski sport zahtijeva mnoga odricanja i često velike napore u pomicanju granice ljudskih mogućnosti. Stoga je segment prehrane u sportu u posljednjih nekoliko desetljeća postao nezaobilazan.

IWSF Cable Wakeboard World Championship - Seems like this might be completely different surroundings than usual and I am so sorry that I wont be able to go there... Russian music, Russian Style, Left foot forward cable and some of the best riders in the World... Check out the teaser... 
- I saw this girl on a shore of river in Montpellier and I could never say she is so crazy… she told me how good she is snowboarding, but I never could imagine what a good style she has. This interview is really worth of seeing, you have some nice videos, some really stylish shots… and some nice words about woman snowboarding! Girl, after this you will definitively run on the snow, try to catch Elke’s steps ;)

WWA Wake Park World Series - Copenhagen - The weather was incredible whole day... sunny and worm, with a bit of wind, but no clouds on the sky... It is almost seven in the evening and while we are preparing ourselves for a big BBQ it is still shining like in the morning. We got riders who got into the finals... we got winner of the best trick... some results you will find out right now, but for some you will have to click on us tomorrow... cause it is a big, big secret... so wait for prize giving ceremony... 
WWA Wake Park World Series - Copenhagen - Nina, a local girl here, took Toon, Laszlo and me into her apartment, so after a long talk, after 1 we were in the bed... We didn’t have a long sleep, so the morning came very quickly. Instead of bike we caught bus. We were right on time, before 9, on the site for the morning training. 
WWA Wake Park World Series - Copenhagen - I needed to take early flight cause I wanted to spend my time in Denmark, Copenhagen, the longest as I can... I had one stop in Munich, one of my favorite towns… where I couldn’t avoid a short shopping, which was enough for whole weekend. After 2 flights which lasted hour and half and delay about 40 minutes I was finally at the Copenhagen airport, catching first taxi which will take me to the cable… As always I didn’t research anything about this country, so it was pretty big surprise when I saw sandy beaches out of plane… Like I wasn’t on the north… 
Pro Wakeboard tour stop Reno by Austin Hair - Well that’s it. The US pro tour is finished for the season, and it concluded in Reno, NV. I can’t believe how early it finished this year. I have to say Reno is a good place to hold the final stop. When you’re not at the site there is plenty to do at the casino. I gave myself a $100 budget at the casino, and ended up doubling it the first night. From there I went up about $30 more dollars. I’d say that’s pretty good considering a few of my friends went in the hole about $1000. But I wasn’t looking to earn a ton of money, just for some entertainment each night. 
IWSF Cable Wakeboard World Championship - In about 4 weeks the CWWC Cable Wakeboard World Championships will take place in Anapa (Russia).

WWA Wake Park World Series - Kiev - It is so hard to wait for the results and not hear everything from the first hand, but thanks to Sjors and Hans we got some short info and results from the qualifications. The time was nice and sunny... but not hot... It is north, so we couldnt expect tropical climate ;) Atmosphere was cool and easy. They had riders from USA 4, Autralia 1, Belarudssia 4, France 3, Germany 8, Spain 1, Netherlands 5, Russia 1, Bulgaria 1, Ukraine 6 and UK 1. This was first big event for Ukraina... And from women, they had, 7 competitors Denise and Maxime, Kinga and 2 from Ukraine and 2 from Belaruss. For the young ladies from Belarussia it is good future in front!!! 
Darin Shapiro - Many of us have watched Wake through its evolution to see that some faces are clearly burned into its history to the point that they are almost sport-defining. That is Darin Shapiro. Shapiro still possesses every ounce of the wake prowess that made him the winningest wakeboarder in the sports history. If you do not know who Shapiro is, punch yourself in the face right now. You call yourself a wakeboarder? Okay, enough tough talk. Here is a history lesson: Shapiro made up about 80 percent of the maneuvers done on a wakeboard today (well, the base tricks at least), and he did it on a directional board with sandal straps behind an un-weighted boat with the rope anchored at hip level. Shapiro also went huge. Shapiro still goes huge.

Pro riders hit the water - Fans lined the shores of Lake Andrea at Prairie Springs Park in Pleasant Prairie, Wis. today for the third day of the 2008 Air Nautique WWA Wakeboard National Championships, presented by Rockstar Energy Drink, as most of the pro divisions took to the water for the first at this year’s contest. 
After 22 hours trip we came far away from our country, to Netherlands, Almere, where European Championship will be held. Of course, every time when I bring my tent to sleep in, it has to rain, and like this was last two nights, but at least, we had some parts of the day where we could be without our unbrellas. One day we spent getting used to the camping place, with the nice bbq in German "area"... And the day after, after having some training sessions few of us went sightseeing of Amsterdam... bus, train and we were there in a too crowded, too coloured and too loud town... I imagined the town will be more silent, but maybe when you smoke one or two it became like this ;)

Baviti se sportom kao hobijem zalog je za kvalitetniji i duži život, no vrhunski sport zahtijeva mnoga odricanja i često velike napore u pomicanju granice ljudskih mogućnosti. Stoga je segment prehrane u sportu u posljednjih nekoliko desetljeća postao nezaobilazan.

It seems like each time that I am traveling I am getting more nervous before my trip. I couldn’t go sleeping before midnight and than I couldn’t fall a sleep for at least an hour… The clock in my room was to loud… and soon it was 3 o’clock when I should get up to catch night trams which weren’t coming for ages… I looked wrong time table and I just hoped that I will be on time to catch my plane…
