The biggest Canadian wakeboard tournament of the year is in the books, and the hometown boys reclaimed the wakeboard titles from the defending Wakestock champions who were hailing from the US.  Rusty Malinoski defeated the seemingly invincible Phillip Soven in the finals for the Pro Mens Expression Session, while fellow Canadian, Aaron Rathy, took it home on the rails.

The American’s did represent in the wakeskate division though.  Stuart Shinn bested the all-American final which included the likes of Brian Grubb, Reed Hansen, and Danny Hampson.

The men weren’t the only ones on hand as Amber Wing added another impressive win to her increasingly long resume.

Liquid Force has been churning out their electronic newsletter “The Truth” for some time now. I noticed Wakeworld [externallink] is reporting the 50th edition of The Truth, yet the Liquid Force website claims it is only the 28th edition of their newsletter. After doing a little research, I found that apparently Liquid Force added The Truth to their website in 2006 after already publishing 22 newsletters. So #1 [externallink] on the LF site equals #23 [externallink] on the WakeWorld site and so on.

In The Truth – Number 28 (which happens to really be #50) Liquid Force talks about recent competitions including Wakestock, the Portland Pro Tour stop, and BROstock.
