NAUTIQUE AND NAUTIQUE CENTRAL PARTNER WITH AUSTRALIA’S PREMIER WAKEBOARD SCHOOL

ORLANDO, FLA (September 18, 2012) — Nautique and their Australian dealer Nautique Central announce a five year partnership with Black Diamond Wakeboard School in New South Wales, Australia. This partnership is part of Nautique’s long-term strategic plan to promote wakeboarding globally.

Black Diamond Wakeboard School, powered by Nautique boats and supported by Nautique Central, will exclusively use Super Air Nautique boats to provide the world’s best wake for its students and annual events. Black Diamond is a full-time coaching facility for more than 3,000 students from around the world, catering to all riders from beginners to professionals.

“Black Diamond has pushed to be at the forefront of wakeboarding’s progression so it makes sense for us to align with two companies that are also pushing the limits with innovation, service & design,” stated Black Diamond owner Scotty Kell. “Nautique has amazing products and with the recent launch of the game-changing G-Series, exciting times are around the corner. I can’t wait for our students to experience the G23!” added Kell.

“We are incredibly proud to have Black Diamond choose Nautique, recently voted the industry’s “Manufacturer of the Year,” as their exclusive tow boat,” commented Nautique Central principal Steve Gescke. “To be involved with Scotty & Sal is one of our company’s single biggest achievements. We see this as an incredibly important step toward bringing the Nautique experience to more wakeboarders both in Australia and around the world,” added Gescke.

“Nautique is proud to support Black Diamond which is clearly one of the world’s premier wakeboarding schools, through one of our top worldwide dealers, Nautique Central,” stated Nautique President/CEO Bill Yeargin. “Soon the Black Diamond students will learn for themselves why Nautique was recently voted as having the wake industry’s “Most Innovative Product”!” Yeargin added.

Black Diamond is Australia’s premier wakeboard school and is the only full-time operation based out of Wisemans Ferry, NSW. Owned and operated by Scotty & Sally Kell, the school caters from beginners through world champion professional riders.
