Just came across this video of Ricky G killing it. Man does he have some sick style. If you've never gotten a chance to meet Ricky G in person he is one of the nicest guys in the game! Actually he was the first person to invite me out wakeboarding when I moved to SoCal, didnt know a thing about other than I wanted to ride and he just emailed me out of the blue, cant thank him enough!

I love watching that guy ride, does he have any particular long wakeboard section in any latest video releases apart from Transgression?. I'm also curious how much Ricky G. feeds off the vandal's riding and vice versa. Don't they ride together a lot in southern Cal.

Soli, Cool thing about Ricky is he charges the double up in the rough water too....which we are known to get at the spring ride.

Yes Tulloch has been so blown out the last two weekends we could not even ride. Hopefully it changes this weekend.

Tis the season. It's been holwing everywhere. I thought the wind was going to huck me and my motorcyle off the San Mateo bridge yesterday.

BTW... after watching the vid yesterday, I decided to scope out the Gator website.... one question came up.... In the Family section, where is Wes Brisco?? (among a few others???)

Thanks Andy for putting this up here. The video came out really good i thought, all that technical stuff makes a difference when you are watching it huh? It was a good day for riding and shooting.

Thanks again.
Ricky G.

It's crazy to think that when we interviewed Ricky back in 2004, right after he left Hyperlite, (http://wakeworld.com/interviews/2004/rickygonzalez1.asp), he was thinking of getting out of the pro wakebording thing. Glad he did not do that!

Wow that's an old interview.

No doubt, we are lucky that Ricky G is still in the Game.

Ricky, all that Technical stuff is great keep it up man!

Has anyone rode both the 08 Ricky G. board and the 08 Vandall board? How was the feel and what was the difference between them in your opinion. I have ridden the Vandall but an curious to see what people think about the Ricky board.

Nice vid Ricky. Smooth as usual.

Maybe we'll see you this weekend at Elsinore.

I shot with Ricky and Randall this weekend. Unfortunately the conditions didn't give us any breaks. We got blown out! Here are some shots from our trip to Naples last year.

That ENZO he rides behind throws a decent wake. Sure he probably slams it with weight, but nice pic of the ENZO and Ricky

Here's a trivia question. If you can name everyone in the enzo in the second pic, I'll send you something wake related....

Good Luck....

Tulloch was perfict all weekend Im guessing when it windy in the valley it's pretty much blown out every where. If Spring Ride weather is anything like it was this last weekend its gonna be off the hook.

Here are a few from last year's Double or Nothing Contest. BTW, Ricky talked to me for quite a while, and I got the same great impression other's here have experienced.
