Shaun rules. Great rider, great person.

Dj2up10 10-30-2011 4:33 PM

Such an awesome guy.

He looks like he's loving his current setup! It would be nice to see Murray on some flex though. He's always been so creative in the flats...I wouldn't be surprised to see that in his line up next year.

Shaun Murray is a stud. Mad props for the osmosis 5 and the way he is incorporating his family in his career/video. I have always had massive amounts of respect for that guy.

TheHebrewHammer 10-30-2011 5:57 PM

It's amazing that even at the age of 35, Murray still has the most legit raley in the sport! I also love his goofy tricks. He makes wakeboarding look fun and you can tell that he's enjoying every set. I have always wanted to try that backwards start at 1:24!

tripsw 10-30-2011 7:19 PM

Cool.

kmehrkens 10-30-2011 7:26 PM

I love his unique tricks. That's where it's at.

durty_curt 10-30-2011 9:01 PM

Old people rock! I've always wanted to try gettin up backwards. I knew it was some way possible

durty_curt 10-30-2011 9:15 PM

Song is deadmau5: ghosts n stuff REMIX. not not picking but if you guys try downloading song, the two are pretty different but both are great

benjaminp 10-30-2011 10:14 PM

Backwards starts are super fun, just keep the handle real low.
Murray is the man. He has several of the sickest sets I've ever seen, that dont include any "bangers". He's in a league of his own.

Shaun is killing it.Love his raleys and tricks in the flats.

hawkeye7708 10-31-2011 8:37 AM

Cool video!! fun riding style as always

stang_killa_ss 10-31-2011 8:53 AM

damn. i love the surface trick string of tricks he starts at 1:02

wakerider111 10-31-2011 10:52 AM

wow!

read the posts on the backwards start before watching but when the cut first started for it i was like what is that supposed to be... haha

anyway. for backwards start, besides keeping handle low definitely go real slow the first time too.

only thing missing from that vid was a tumble turn. ;)

No offense to the top tour guys and the top tech riders, but that video was just way more entertaining then a bunch of non grabbed 900's. There were just things in there you actually never see people do. Murray truly is "The Man". As if you don't want to go ride after watching it!

shredsthegnar 10-31-2011 11:40 AM

Thanks Guys! Glad you liked it. Had a great time shooting with him!

funkyhomosapien 10-31-2011 11:42 AM

he is still the man

tampawake 10-31-2011 12:46 PM

Spent one day at TWBS and those guys were all SUPER down to earth and treated you like you had been friends for years. Murray Moye and Rattray were there. Willing to spend as much time as possible helping my old arse improve. Best part of the day watching Kyle ride then Murray. Both great and seeing those ridiculous raleys dear gawd!!!

andy_nintzel 10-31-2011 12:51 PM

thanks for posting!

10-31-2011 1:07 PM

These raleys? My trip to TBS Lolhttp://tapatalk.com/mu/a6890b7b-fff2-4074.jpg

HOUSE OF STYLE - nothing else

monroeyd 10-31-2011 5:29 PM

Sick. Thanks for puttin' it up.

mike2001 11-01-2011 9:37 AM

Just all around fun to watch his riding and it looks like hes having a blast too.

Agree with what someone else said, would rather watch this style over non-stop tech moves.

greg_nelson 11-01-2011 10:25 AM

We know Shaun still has it, question is "What's he going to do with it in 2012?" Great video Blaine, Shaun told me that was just 1 day of ripping around his lake, I like the footage and the editing. -GN

Wiatowski 11-01-2011 10:46 AM

He really makes it look effortless, and smooth. I would love to Ollie as smoothly as he does. as for the guy that said 35 and still got it..... some of us are just starting out at that age. 35's not that old. :P

shredsthegnar 11-01-2011 10:53 AM

Thanks Greg I appreciated the support! I had a great time shooting for Shaun, it was fun to watch. Id love to be able to shoot with him again for more then one set!

gene3x 11-02-2011 10:28 AM

"What is gonna do with it?" Sounds like you are suggesting he might quit or something.... ?

johnboyy7 11-03-2011 1:06 PM

wow. that made me smile. when he olleys he doesnt even move but pops up.
already stated but look how much fun he is having.

TheHebrewHammer 11-03-2011 8:15 PM

The crazy thing is when he ollies into a cut. I've seen it in a lot of his videos over the years. He manages to get huge height and distance with very little apparent effort and land on a perfectly smooth edge. It's just awesome to watch. His board control is sick!

steezin4noreason 11-04-2011 9:17 AM

The older he gets, the better he gets. So inspiring.

razorjaw 11-12-2011 10:30 PM

I've been wakeboarding all day and came home exhausted. Then I watched this. I now want to go back out again! Great vid!!!

captain_vilfo 11-13-2011 12:18 PM

everything he does is so smooth

aubuchon03 11-13-2011 8:52 PM

That is why he has the title "house of style' (and possibly why his original board was named the fluid). If you want to see some old school crazy Murray style, go back to late 90's early 2000's videos (ex.switch, switch 22) and watch how smooth his riding was then compared to anyone else on the video. I have always used his riding in those videos as a benchmark, and hope one day I can mimic his smooth landings.
