So the NHL season just started a couple of weeks ago, Yan and myself being Montreal Canadiens fans, we were thinking hockey even though we just had gotten to Florida. Being based out of The Projects we don't really have to go anywhere since we already have it all; boat lakes, incredible rail park, friends etc... On one certain night out, we ran into Chad who we told we had brought our hockey gear down because we knew he played and wanted to get on the ice as well! A couple of days later we met up at the RDV Sportsplex in Maitland were we played some drop in hockey for an hour and a half. After sweating so much in the coldest place in all of Florida, Chad invited us to go ride.

After a quick lunch, we got into his loaded boat and saw Watson and Chris O' ridding on their most recent toy, a 50 foot A-frame built over a dock. After watching Chris O kill it, we got to jump into the water. Since no one really wanted to go first, I slapped my board on and went for it. Chad's wake is always so nice and bootyl, I was stoked. Yan followed and stomped a couple smooth spins before falling flat on his face on a T/S 7!!! Laughed it off and wrapped up his set. Chad went for a quick set on his new 2010 Viva set up and showed us that even in the off season he had more than one trick up his sleeves! I was filming him and trying not to mess up anything, and Yan was stressing about driving the right lines but it all turned out good and had an awesome time.
