I did an all day clinic with Nick Weinacker and Sonja Scheffler yesterday, super cool people! It was me and 5 others and we went out all day with the on their Tige RZ4. I couldn't believe the tricks Nick can throw on the stock wake, he was riding at 25mph on a 77' rope and just going huge!

I learned a lot from them and hopefully I can progress a little faster now that I have some proper training. It's funny how someone can tell you what you're doing wrong and the right way to do it and you try to do what they are telling you but your body just doesn't do it.

If you get an opportunity to be coached by either of these 2, do yourself a favor and take it! Not only are they great riders but they are awesome coaches with LOTS of patience!

Nick is the man! Excellent coach and very down to earth guy. Was he driving his griesal?

Griesal! LOL! Yep, he was on the hunt for grease after the clinic! I guess he's driven over 10,000 miles this summer on free veggie oil.

To bad we cant run our boats on free grease.

Him and Sonja make a great team and you wont find a nicer guy to hang out on the boat with.

I second both of those statements. If you didn't know he was a Pro you would think he was just a normal guy that you would hang out at the lake with. The two of them together are a finely tuned machine as far as pointers go.
