I could take 'em, but I think it'd be a conflict of interest if I jump in there.....

Gordie.... Just a dub contest. Head to head, elimination style. 2 dubs per pass, 1 fall. Last man/woman standing takes home $3k.

Fun, eh?

Holy Crap Batman! Good to see Cdub back riding! Good luck Chris!

CIE throws down, I wish I was going.

Slipknot,

I'm not official but I'll be taking shots for WW.

I see Johnny V is on the list and I spoke with him the other night and it didn't sound like he was going to make it.

Of course Walt is the official photographer....

Slipknot: All the '07 stuff is available now. We'll have it all at Spring Ride. It'll be up on our site once the dust settles. Keep an eye out for it in the next few weeks.

nice line up...! Time to get Wild On CIE Spring Ride

'Sup Dog?

(jarrod) · (jarrod) **Join Date: May 2003** 05-03-2007, 9:27 AM

Arun, and I'm sure Antbug will be shooting too. There were rumors of Alliance Mag, but I'm thinking that won't happen now.

Couple of changes: no Valdez kids, no Johnny V.

(mcwakerider) · (mcwakerider) **Join Date: Dec 2006** 05-03-2007, 9:33 AM

Ricky G is goin to be sick!!!

(baschralper) · (baschralper) **Join Date: Dec 2001** 05-03-2007, 9:37 AM

No Jason Callen?

talked to him this morning, and said he was riding?

(jarrod) · (jarrod) **Join Date: May 2003** 05-03-2007, 9:46 AM

Damn....Callen is definitely in.

(guido) · (guido) **Join Date: Jul 2002** 05-03-2007, 11:44 AM

Yeah, there are a few others that'll be on the list, too. Nick Jones is out with an injury, but he'll be there.

(wakedad33) · (wakedad33) **Join Date: Oct 2005** 05-03-2007, 12:23 PM

Nick Jones is living in Orlando (and hurt) he won't be there.

(wakedad33) · (wakedad33) **Join Date: Oct 2005** 05-03-2007, 12:27 PM

I talked to Nick Jones last weekend at wake games, I don't think he's coming.

(jarrod) · (jarrod) **Join Date: May 2003** 05-03-2007, 12:28 PM

Hmm....news to us.

(guido) · (guido) **Join Date: Jul 2002** 05-03-2007, 12:59 PM

Hmmmm, maybe he's not coming... Last we heard from CWB was that he'd be there, but injured and not riding. I'd understand not wanting to make the trek if he can't ride.

(wakedad33) · (wakedad33) **Join Date: Oct 2005** 05-03-2007, 1:03 PM

Evan, I just checked & looks like he will be there but probably wont ride. My bad. Should be a awesome contest.

Nick will be there but he will not be riding.

That pic is out of this world!!!
It looks like it is on the shore of the Pacific...

Cool shot Spencer !

mendo247 05-06-2007, 6:14 PM

WOW! definetly some stiff competition in the finals.. looking at this pic he earned the victory..

(richd) · (richd) **Join Date: Oct 2003** 05-06-2007, 6:37 PM

Too bad Tony, now you'll have to file an income tax return!

j/k congrats on taking the big prize and that's a great shot to add to your collection!

(spin2win) · (spin2win) **Join Date: Feb 2006** 05-06-2007, 7:50 PM

who else ripped it up

(socalwakepunk) · (socalwakepunk) **Join Date: Dec 2002** 05-06-2007, 7:56 PM

Tony, now you have some money to go out and get those gay green shorts replaced (I noticed you wore them in the pic above)...J/K - LOL...

Seriously, congrats, the shot looks awesome. They are a tad on the short side though...

(richd) · (richd) **Join Date: Oct 2003** 05-06-2007, 8:50 PM

He held it up there so long gravity pulled them down!

(At least that's what I would tell everyone!) Upload

(ynot) · (ynot) **Join Date: Jan 2007** 05-06-2007, 10:39 PM

haha o man, the short shorts are on their way back in style this summer, didnt you know that?

Naw but that was an awesome event that CIE put on again for everyone. The Double Up contest did not have the best conditions but I was happy to see how much the CIE crew was willing to work with the riders to try and move the double ups so they were in some sort of all right water.

The support CIE received from the other companies was amazing. I mean CWB Board Co. flying out 4 pro riders was just plain insane.

Anyways i just want to thanks everyone that made this event possible because i know there were more people then i know of working their butts off to make this all happen. Thank you to everyone who told me congrats, you guys(and i hope girls

) are the best.

Tony: Anyone who can pull off a trick like that, can get away with wearing anything!

(guido) · (guido) **Join Date: Jul 2002** 05-07-2007, 8:13 AM

I can't even tell you how stoked we were when we found out Tony won the Dub contest. I just wish I could've been in the boat to see it close up. Apparently this was the only trick that got everyone in the boat on their feet. He held that nuke grab all the way up, all the way down, then stood it up clean.

I think the short shorts helped keep the wind resistance down.

Huge thanks and props goes out to all the riders that braved the conditions. It was super windy out there. For these guys to go out and put it on the line was amazing. I was just amped to be hanging out on the dock with some of my favorite riders. Once again I'm amazed by what cool guys these are.

Hahaha that was my next comment!

I'm with Tony,short shorts are coming back in style!

Few more pics like that and everybody is gonna start sporting them.

Congrats to Tony, that glide was insane!! From the shore, that glide was well above the tower and floaty as hell.... GRANDE!!!! He hit the Dub, I ran to my cooler to grab a beer, came back and he was just landing.

Big ups to the whole CIE crew for once again putting on an incredible event. The contents, the booths, the people, and the caliber of riding was something that should not have been missed.

All: If you weren't there this year, make sure you're there next year.

(ynot) · (ynot) **Join Date: Jan 2007** 05-07-2007, 10:43 AM

haha short shorts for life

just forgot to thank all the people that have supported me over the years so thanks to: CWB Board Co. WatersportsWarehouse.com(W2), ETCO Marine, Proline, CIE Clothing Co. and {Y}kiki footwear.

Ya Tony Great Job!!
I am stoked that you won the Dubs contest!!
Very Nice!!

(guido) · (guido) **Join Date: Jul 2002** 05-08-2007, 11:00 AM

Hey Chris... We were glad you made it out. Hopefully we'll be hearing/seeing more of you this year.

For those that don't know..... Chris kills it. Check his profile pic for the trick that almost had him taking home the cash.

(jarrod) · (jarrod) **Join Date: May 2003** 05-08-2007, 11:07 AM

Oh yeah...after watching the way Chris road in eliminations, there was no doubt he was a serious threat. He was the first rider to land both double ups in that horrible water. Actually...he landed all 4 didn't he?

Nice riding Chris. I think everyone on the dock thought you had it, but, it all came down to the judges in the boat.

(chris_williams)

Thanx J-Rod and Evan and all the other CIE peps! I had a good time and I'm definately glad to be back riding again. The event was awesome and I can't wait for next years already. I'll be driving up to Jason Callen's alot this year so lets get our ride on when I'm up there. Jas thanx for everything once again! Oh and I gotta say Brodie is the funniest guy I've met in a long time. haha. Brodie some girls here in so cal were running your name last night! Where else you been bud lol?

(steve_jones) · (steve_jones) **Join Date: Jun 2006** 05-08-2007, 3:02 PM

Tony....that's by far the coolest shot I've seen in wakeboarding. UNBELIEVABLY HARD GRAB!!!

WOW!!!! You earned that 3k for sure!!

(ronnyboy27) · (ronnyboy27) **Join Date: Nov 2005** 05-08-2007, 3:09 PM

I guess I'm never going to be cool cause I don't care who's wearing those shorts they look gay. But that grab looks sick.

(westsidarider) · (westsidarider) **Join Date: Feb 2003** 05-08-2007, 3:46 PM

ye yea. great event even though the wind was absolutely horrible. i was prepared for it though as chris's dad called and warned us on the way up. it was awsome hangin out with everyone and props to cie for gettin the job done.

(brodie_chaboya)

So whats the dates for the fall ride?haha Hope to see most of you in Sacramento this weekend for Spanky beavers jib jam, the party starts on thursday at Avalon 7-10 for the Surf and Skate Bikini Contest.
CRAZY times as usual at spring ride. Good job Tony and other finalists. Callen/Williams if you guys need a place to stay in Sac let me know.

"I guess I'm never going to be cool cause I don't care who's wearing those shorts they look gay."

I know Tony is pretty happy with the win but feels his reputation has taken a big hit because of his attire malfunction. Luckily there are ways we can fix his image:
