With summer right around the corner, it’s time to shake off the cobwebs with some skiing spring cleaning. We enlisted Malibu Boats skiers Will Asher, Thomas Degasperi and Regina Jaquess to share some things you can do right now to get your body, boat and gear ready for a summer full of fun and personal bests...

I’ve always gotten a lot of attention from my riding, and I think it’s because my tricks are different than most other people. From tail tapping suspended road cones off the Malibu MXZ wake to wall rides, unique jibs and my own signature style on tricks, I try to get as creative as possible...

One of the great things about wakeboarding is being able to put your own style on a trick that’s been done the same way for years. In this case, it’s a 360. I’ve been working on a wrapped heelside frontside 360 with a tuck knee grab that looks pretty unique...

Wakesurfing is one of the funnest things to do behind the boat, but you can look like a kook pretty quick if you don’t add in a little style. Malibu’s new SURF GATE lets you create ocean-like waves behind the boat, so it’s high time to bring some more surf style to the lake...

I pulled the Fall 2012 cover of TransWorld WAKEBOARDING with a tuck knee grab off the kicker. I tweaked that move so hard that I almost got my knee to the board. Now, you may not go to that level on your lake, but you can have a lot of fun with tuck knee tricks, especially when you can work them into a spin or a flip...

There are two types of 180 shoves — surface shoves and air shoves — and the motion for the two is very similar. As a result, I’m going to teach you how to do the surface shove first, so you can work up to the air shove and if you’re really ambitious eventually taking it to 360...

When you get a regular stalefish down, you can take this versatile trick to a lot of different places. The stalefish is cool because it looks great poked out and a little off-axis, and when incorporated into spins it becomes a little techy as well...

Your success at the next buoy all depends on how you set yourself up from the previous buoy to the first wake. If you haven’t done things right in this crucial part of the turn, it’s already too late...

Is there one perfect line to run through the slalom course, one turning radius that places the skier on the ultimate path of least resistance to the next buoy? After watching hours of snow-ski racing this winter, I am inclined to think there may be.

Fifty-five year old native born Belgian Alexandre De Nobrega decided to make the move to Central Florida to pursue his career goal as a personal trainer and ski year-around. Along with wife, Katty Parent, and his two young children, they now reside in Clermont, Florida living in close proximity to Swiss Ski School...

Challenged to find time to workout? Maybe it's time to make your office or bathroom your personal gym. Five to ten minutes a day is better than nothing. Here's how to do it!

Carving a big spray in the open water is the number one reason why you learned to slalom; there’s no denying it. Big spray is king.
