SPY Presents: Outta the Hood w/Shane Bonifay + The Dirk

April 25th, 2011

The SPY crew made their way to Florida before the dawn of wake season to catch-up with Shane Bonifay in his ‘hood. The venue wound-up moving miles away from Shane’s stomping grounds of Orlando to Clermont, and the agenda switched from pre-season biz to mandatory good times on and off the water. Always easy to kick-off the season’s planning session with a couple boats, good friends, a mindset bent on fun and cool people cheering our boy Shane on. Check out the video below.

Boot Camp Day 6: Wake Day Shred

August 4th, 2010

DAY 6: WEDNESDAY Sun burnt, tired and exhausted from having way too much fun the retailers rallied one last day to the Carlsbad Lagoon where we all piled onto the Liquid Force boat for another day of sunshine and shredding. SPY’s Jimmy LaRiche and Melissa Marquardt were putting on a show for us as everyone oooh and ahhhs could be heard around the boat. Thanks to Christopher for sending over Monster Energy truckers to keep the retailers from being completely burnt to a crisp.  Another special thanks to TW Wakeboarding and Alliance Wakeboarding bringing out the long lens for helping shoot photos from jetskiis. And yeah, filmer Mauricio hanging on for dear life up top of the boat as he was filming for our yet to be released badass SPY Boot Camp 8/VAS Entertainment video!

After sun burnt lips and melted sunscreen, we dove into bags of In & Out then headed over to the SPY office for a tour of our global headquarters in Carlsbad. To end an absolute insane of a week at the beachfront mansion, SPY held an award ceremony dinner at Fidels, each receiving an engraved SPY Boot Camp 8 I-pod shuffle and a rad pair of Aerial 7 headphones for their flights back home. The final final send off party home was at the SPY night Wet Wednesday at Zenbu in Cardiff-By-The-Sea.

SPY Boot Camp 8 was an epic week…the Second Annual Winter Boot Camp is creeping up–stay tuned for more details!
