Virginia Tech Wakeboarding Goes to Georgia

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

This past weekend the VT Wakeboard team travelled to Gainesville, GA to compete in the second stop for the Empire Wake Collegiate Wakeboard Series. We sent a small crew towing our awesome EPIC 23V provided by EPIC and Southern Ski Boats of Richmond, Va.

Our initial plan was to ride Friday when we arrived and show off the boat during the competition, and we certainly got our money’s worth. Right after the beginner class had ridden, the tow boat for the competition ran into engine problems that prevented it from towing the rest of the competition. We jumped at this opportunity and had our EPIC in the water before the director of the competition could find us and ask us if we would be willing to pull the event.

With reporters from Alliance Wakeboard Mag, Empire Wake, and riders from 8 schools looking on, our shiny white EPIC with “VT Wake-Pulled by Epic” branded on the hull drove out of the marina and made a bee line for the competition site. We loaded up the judges, threw the line to the first rider, and never had a problem the rest of the day.

Epic doesn’t build its Epic 23v as a multisport, luxury-cruising, parents-going-for-a-tour-around-the-lake kind of boat. Nope, this is just a hard-core utilitarian wakeboarding machine
