We are always looking out for talented young riders who are making their name in the wakeboarding world, for a while we have been following the growing talent of a fantastic young wakeboarder, Jorge Gill.
Jorge, who is currently riding in Orlando, Florida recently competed at the 2012 Nautique Wake Games, our guys from the Nautique factory watched as this young British wakeboarder proved his worth behind the phenomenal wake of the G23.
Jorge certainly had the Nautique guys talking and we are now happy to announce that Nautique in association with Midlands Nautique will be sponsoring Jorge for the 2012 season.
Knowing Jorge and his parents personally we have every belief that Jorge will do well in whatever he does, its an added delight to be able to help such a keen and genuinely nice guy who’s love for the sport and fantastic attitude towards it can be clearly seen.
With the continued encouragement and support from all his sponsors Jorge certainly has the talent, potential and backing to do great things. Jorge really does deserve all the support he can get and we are extremely happy to be apart of that.
Jorge has his own page on Facebook where his riding can be followed: http://www.facebook.com/jorgegill

For the first time ever, anywhere in the world in a wakeboarding competition, a wake-to-wake 1080 was landed at the Nautique Wake Games this past weekend in Orlando, Florida. This never before achieved feat was made possible by the revolutionary wake of the new Super Air Nautique G23. Then, as if to prove it was not a fluke, a second wakeboarder landed the same trick again. From never happening before to happening twice in one day in the Super Air Nautique G23’s debut.
The Nautique Wake Games showcased the revolutionary wake of the Super Air Nautique G23 with the best wakeboard athletes in the world competing. Harley Clifford (Australia) was the first wakeboarder to land a wake-to-wake 1080 followed by Oli Derome (Canada) who went out and stuck the second 1080 after Clifford. Fans went wild as they lined the shore and watched history go down behind the G23.
“It was amazing to watch history being made when two incredible athletes landed back-to-back 1080’s behind the revolutionary Super Air Nautique G23 this past weekend. This had never happened before so to see it happen twice in one day was amazing,” stated Nautique CEO Bill Yeargin. “Only Nautique could produce a game-changing wake boat that has immediately redefined the industry standard,” Yeargin added

In early March our Nautique team began rolling out the launch plan for the unveiling of the boat the world has now seen, our revolutionary new Super Air Nautique G23!
When we started executing the launch plan people in our industry almost immediately began asking me if I thought we were building up expectations to an unreachable level. I was reminded many times that we were making a big gamble if we could not deliver on the lofty claims of wakeboard athletes like Shaun Murray who were using words like “game changer” to describe our new G23.
The hype built all through March and by the time we held our unveiling of the new G23, tens of thousands of people had shown interest in the new boat through our website, discussion boards, Facebook and other social media outlets. A big crowd showed up for the unveiling causing us to run out of both parking and room for everyone in the building. Both the webcast, which was well planned, and our Nautique website blew up because such a huge number of people were trying to access it at once. The world wanted to learn about this new Nautique!
Well now the world has seen what we kept for a secret for so long. People have had a chance to experience what we believed would be changing our industry, the all-new Super Air Nautique G23.
The comments have been unbelievable and confirmed exactly what we knew, the boat is amazing. Person after person who has been on the water with the boat has told me how their expectations have not only been met, but have been exceeded! One respected industry leader (and great wakeboarder) rode behind the boat with stock ballast and told me he would be scared to put extra ballast in the boat. In just the first few days since the boat has been introduced two long-time pro wakeboarders, Jeff McKee and JD Webb, have already landed new tricks they have never before been able to land.
The hype was big but if you ask anyone who has experienced the boat – expectations have been met and exceeded! In fact, want an outside opinion? Check out Transworld Wakeboarding Magazine’s review of the G23 atwakeboardingmag.com.
We have already built several of the Super Air Nautique G23’s and full production starts May 1. You will see this new boat on the water this summer!

Nautique is excited to introduce the next generation wake boat that will forever change what the industry thought possible. The all-new Super Air Nautique G23 redefines what a wake boat can be.
Nautique’s designers, engineers and elite team of professional riders started with a clean slate and created a wake that gives every rider the opportunity to do things they only dreamed possible. The G23 features the all-new Nautique Configurable Running Surface (NCRS) which fine-tunes the hull surface under any condition using the latest technology in our Nautique LINC system. Every inch of the boat’s hull was designed to create a wake that will work for every level of riding, at any speed and line length without sacrificing a clean lip, long transitions and solid pop. Additionally, with over 2,800 lbs. of sub-floor internal ballast, the G23 offers you maximum ballast with maximum storage and a world class wake without the need for additional weight.
The styling and craftsmanship that has gone into designing the interior of this boat is unlike anything that has come before it. From the ergonomics of the seats to the functionality of the seating configurations, no stone was left unturned in designing every aspect of the fit and finish. The long list of new, innovative features in the G23 includes integrated, custom-designed navigation and docking light arrays with LED lights; unique bow design offering deep, comfortable seating; removable, in-floor transom cooler; the stylish, functional Flight Control Tower, dynamic, aggressive hull-side graphics and gel-coat pattern; reversible stern seat with convenient slide mechanism; signature Nau-Teak flooring throughout the boat; and much more. Plus, with more storage and seating options than any preceding Nautique model, the G23 is large enough to easily accommodate all of your friends and family for a day of fun on the lake.
“The revolutionary new Super Air Nautique G23 is a result of years of hard work by our elite team of athletes and Product Development team. The G23 will advance the wake industry in ways far beyond what anyone thought possible,” stated Nautique CEO Bill Yeargin. “Only Nautique, the company who brought the industry the first inboard towboat, the boat tower, internal ballast, GPS speed control and many other firsts could build a boat this innovative,” Yeargin added.
The Super Air Nautique G23 will kick off the wake season at the 2012 Nautique Wake Games in Orlando, FL, April 11-14.

In 2008 the 1st Tony and Ryan competition was held at Chasewater Ski Club in loving memory of two very special people, Ryan & Tony Birch who were tragically killed in 2007 in an aircraft accident. Both family and friends were compelled to share a time to remember two very special people who they all lost from their lives. For the love, devotion and dedication that Ryan had for wakeboarding, it was decided that the most fitting memorial for Ryan and his dad would be to hold a wakeboard competition.
Each year the competition has grown in numbers both entrants and spectators. Due to the continual works at Chasewater this years competition is again being held at the West Midlands Water Ski Centre . Following the change in venue last year, it was decided to make the 2010 comp a one day event. This year we are taking up the whole weekend!!!!!!!! This years comp is being made even bigger!!!!!
Friday 16th September is practise day, a great day for a sneaky peak at the entrants to the comp

Following this action packed day of riding, The Big Air Floodlit Kicker Competition will be held outside the waterfront bar, another fantastic event which is a must see, to add to the atmosphere a live bands will be playing, with the waterfront serving a few cold ones and food served at the barbecue.
