Hey Guys,
On Saturday was the 4th stop of the Ten Feet High Series at Sheffield cable.
This was a good fun stop of the series with all the riders riding well and the weather being its usual cloudiness with a bit of sunshine but at least it wasn't really windy. Also in the pro and inters categories there was not so many riders and some where at the cable Europeans i believe. This gave it a closer competition for the wakeboarders. In the skate category we had the usual amount of skaters that we normally have in it for each stop making it a really fun and competitive series but having that many riders makes it fun to ride with everyone at the same time. the podium results for skate were will in 3rd zander in 2nd and I came out on top taking 1st place. Everyone rode well making it a sweet event.
see you all at the Final stop in September
laters..

Winch Trip 2010
Hey all,
Last week I went on a winch trip around England with Sim, Reed, Liam and Terry. This was really sick and great experience for me as I havn't done much winching before this trip.
Although we did a large amount of travelling and searching for numerous remote spots to hit, we only got to hit about quarter of the spots we found. But the ones we did hit were really sick!
We started off at boxend and went to the up weir near MK, then to London where we stayed at Sim's place. Thanks Sim. Then bright and early we headed even more south to Bournemouth and on the way we hit this big drop at Yeovilton, which was alot of fun for a big drop afterwards we stayed at Liam's place. Thanks Liam.
Next morning another early start to the day we headed back up north to Shewsbury which had a concrete ledge and a big up weir to hit in a line. Everyone killed it at this spot getting multiple number of tricks up it. We stayed in a Holiday Inn that night then went to Derby and this one spot we found was pretty sick as it was a legit stair set and a good height. After that we headed back to Bedford hitting a good little weir and also hit the up weir near MK again.
This was sweet finding all these spots in the UK, giving us a perspective of actually how many spots there actually is, including all the other spots we found on the way but they were not hittable on the day but it was great to see whats out there for us to winch. Look forward to more winching in the future!
Look out for the next issue of Alliance UK for the photos and more info, also keep and eye on alliancewake.co.uk for the winch trip when its up.

Jr. Boat Nationals
Hey all,
Last weekend was the Junior Boat wakeboard and wakeskate Nationals.
This was a really fun event for the younger wake riders to battle it out for the Junior title. We started off with the qualifying on the saturday with a great standard of riding and then on the sunday was the LCQ (Last Chance Qaulifier) and then the final later on in the day.
The weather conditions werent the best but they arnt most of the time in England ha. Everyone rode well over the whole weekend. I Rode to a good standard on the saturday getting me in the final in both wakeboard and wakeskate. Then My riding wasnt as great on the sunday but you cant always ride your best ha. Though I still placed 2nd on the wakeskate and 3rd on the wakeboard.
Overall this was a great event and thanks to the main sponsor, Ultra Sport Europe and all the other sponsors everyone enjoyed a fun weekend!
