Taken by Max Blakesberg, cool shot with the silhouette of the rider in front of a sunset. The second photo is of Stephen Pierce behind a Nautique doing a massive glide. Taken byMichael Williams, great photo from behind the boat getting the whole crew out on the boat as well.

max definitely deserves this win. His shot looks like a magazine cover.. The other one is so much easier to catch.. Max's picture took perfect timing

November 24, 2015

November 24, 2015

Cable is easy to do and even easier to photograph. Any boat rider can go out and get that shot no problem. Most cable riders can't even clear the wake toe side. Photo 2 is much better. The focus and camera settings are on point which is hard to do with the chase boat changing distances

To Cable is Easy: clearly youve never rode cable .. Because 95% of the cable riders I know can transition to boat and clear the wake toeside no problem .. Call me when you can get a perfect shot like Max's 🙂

Just for the record I was with max during the shoot, (at ski rixen) and he was actually driving a john boat AND taking pictures at the same time, so that he could ensure the pipe was head on and not to the side. It was absolutely insane to see how well he was able to maneuver the boat and take the pictures without messing up.
Just sayin..

Max shouldn't win… For all we know that's not even him in that shot! Black lives matter too right? FAWK YOU MEAN!? This nigga doing a back lip on a giant floating dildo.. What's his back hand doing? Waving at the crowd of people who aren't there to watch his crappy riding? The other one is way better.. He grabbed the tip at least 😉

Ya i have filmed boat and cable that which makes me vote for #2 because i know that cable shot is easy when suns going down just hit button the chase boat shot is much harder to be perfect on ans verry well done!
