Wakeboardweek in Switzerland

hi guys

some friends and i want to organise a nice wakeboard week in ticino for us, we are about 10 people and have two boats (an xstar and an x2) now we are locking for a good coach who can stay with us the hole week and teach us like in a camp. do somebody know where i can look for pro riders who coach and the rates etc.? or does somebody can recomand me one? We would take all the costs like flight accomodation and give him a good salery.

Don't know if you are looking for riders from the US or Swiss?? We (o'Town)know a great group of people in Switzerland that used to own a camp in Clermont, Florida. The owner's name is Phil Hodler. He is a great coach that owns 2 board shops now. Not sure if he is still coaching but he might be able to hook you up. Send me your dates that you are traveling and I will hook you up with his e-mail.

brad, lets go find some swiss women

Justin Butinsky would be avialable to help, I sent you a e-mail with info!!

Hey guys.... I highly recomend Justin if you can work out the details. We rode with him on a few occasions last year and he absolutely kills it. Super down to earth, just a killer kid. He's a great teacher, too and has the capabilities to teach you anything you want from your first wake jumps to a variety of 7's and Mobes. Hit his dad, Craig, up for the details.

Check out a vid of his riding at www.dpcfilms.com

I'm going to second Justin Butinsky. He coached me into landing my first TS Backroll, my first tantrum, and helped me add a grab to my 3.

Justin explains things in a way you can understand. He has a talent for picking out the small problems in your technique that help you land your tricks. He's a very talented rider also. As Evan said, 7's, Osmosis, mobes.

Here's a link to a video of Justin. And here's a HS 7 off the double up.

We have the privelege of riding with Justin a couple of times a week.
He's a very good rider and knows the basic techniques very well. But what is even more important, he is able to communicate them clearly.
Plus he is a cool, honest guy.
