Shawn Murray is INTertaining

Wow, what a great week at the INT US Championships. It is always a lot of fun and totally different from any other comp you will go to. Shawn Murray is the consumate pro and truly the most entertaining person in the sport (IMO). He was there for three days and put on really cool show. I say a show instead of a demo because that is what it is.

His riding is always fun because it is so stylish and big. Blind Judge is too cool. But he doesn't just go out there and ride back and forth for 20 minutes. He makes it a show and EVERYBODY wants to watch. Be it tumble turns, riding on his hands or going barefoot from his wakeboard, he make it a truly entertaining experience. He is a natural entertainer knowing that it is better to keep it short and leave the crowd wanting more than to go too long.

My nine year old daughter has no interest in watching anything and neither did the other little girls waiting to ride and just play. But when Sahwn came out they all went to the lake to watch Shawn. I don't need to say how great he was with the kids at the tournament because that is a given. He and Gerry as well as the other riders did a great job and the professional athletes that came out did a heck of a job representing the sports. Thanks INT and all the staff that makes INT a truly memborable experience.
