(Huntington Beach, CA) October 17, 2007 - Randall Harris’ life has been pretty good over the last few months. At WakeBoarding Magazine’s fourth-annual Wake awards last month, Harris took home two of the most highly coveted awards: “2007 Wake-Rider of the Year” and “Video Section of the Year.’ Now, Quiksilver is finally announcing what many in the industry had long suspected: Harris is the newest addition to Quiksilver’s talented wake team.

Tony Smith’s next project
Friday, October 5th, 2007
Just as we found out that Tony Smith left Alliance we found exactly what he is up to next. It seems he is collaborating with long time friend Chase Heavener to bring the world Fiction. Charles Bergquist joins the two to make a pretty awesome team each contributing their own separate talents and skills to potentially produce some amazing work. I can’t wait for their first release in the wake industry.

Tony Smith leaves Alliance
Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007
After helping launch Alliance Wakeboard Magazine, Tony Smith, the editor of Alliance, is moving on. Alliance broke the story on their website yesterday, and didn’t really give many details on the big change. This is the second big shakeup in the past few weeks for the publication side of the sport of wakeboarding. Just a few weeks ago, WakeBoarding Magazine’s long-time editor, Matt Hickman stepped down, and was replaced by Kevin Michael [externallink]. Tony has been a long time fixture in the sport of wakeboarding, and hopefully he’ll land somewhere else in the wake industry that he worked so hard to build and influence.
