Ultimate X 2014

On the 1st of February I competed at Ultimate X.  Once again i was more than honoured to be invited. This was my second year competing in the event. There were 11 riders competing in the wake division, of which 2 were international riders. This year i was asked to be the wake ambassador for Ultimate X which was also a huge honour. I started promoting the event last year in October.

Ultimate X is an extreme sports event that takes place yearly at the V & A Waterfront. The event involves extreme sports namely: Wakeboarding, FMX, BMX and skating. The top riders in the country are invited to compete in the event. Not only is it a competition with big prize money but it also goes about the entertainment for spectators. 

I was part of the live TV show Expresso on Thursday morning the 27th of January along with a rider from each of the other disciplines as well as the owner of the event, Markus Museler. We were all interviewed and we spoke about the event. This was a great experience for me and I got the opportunity to meet some really cool people.

A huge thanks goes to Tich Mitchell for organizing and putting together the wake setup. There were loads of spectators at the event. I had a fun ride and thanks to Markus Museler, it was overall a successful event once again.
