The Mastercraft Boards n’BBQ’s Groms Wakeboard Competition 2012 was a really good comp to happen down in Mangakino yesterday, all about pushing the sport and the level of riding to the younger slayers out there. With the divisions divided up by riding ability it keeps the competition close, Regan “Reggie” Carlyon absolutely killed it and took out the open division with one of the most impressive double stand up passes I have seen from some one young.

After the 3/4 bouy on the second pass, competitors were encouraged to try something new or recently learnt, something not normally encouraged in a comp where Reggie stomped his first ever scarecrow, not just in comp but ever, check his face right after, the same feat that earned Jonny Weatherly Wild Card best trick.

A massive thanks to everyone that helped with the event and progressing the sport.
