This was my second year riding in the Triple-S Invitational at Real Watersports in Cape Hatteras, NC. I have attended this competition as a spectator for the past 6 years and It only gets better every year. I always end up having the best week of my life . This year I met a bunch of cool new friends and had some of the best sessions I have ever had. I can’t wait til next year. This year I took 2nd place women’s Sliders! next year I’m hoping for 1st! Enjoy.

Claire Joins JETPILOT

SO over the past 7 months I have been living in Orlando, FL cable wakeboarding. I decided to venture on this journey because I fell in LOVE with cable riding. Its just like kiteboarding. The reason I started riding cable was because I wanted to get REALLY good at riding rails and kickers. I wanted to get so good that I would be the best in kiteboarding. Now that I have been here for awhile, improving my riding skills, I was picked up by a wakeboarding sponsor! JETPILOT! words cannot express how stoked I am about that! They are helping me work on my riding career in both cable riding and kiteboarding. The best of both worlds. They have already given me a tremendous amount of support and I could not be happier. I will be attending Keys Cable Park March 2-3 for their all girls event which includes both sports that I love. Kiteboarding and Cable Wakeboarding. I cannot wait! see you on the water!

Triple S Invitational

Ever since I learned to Kiteboard I have always dreamed of riding in the famous TRIPLE S INVITATIONAL. I submitted a wildcard and showed up to the competition, and I was lucky enough to be invited. After I started kiting 5 years ago this was a dream come true. I used to harass Jason Slezak every year asking him what tricks I needed to learn to ride in the competition. Now that I have gained some rail skills I think its a perfect hit. Here are some photos.

I placed 1st Place Women’s Winching and 3rd place Women’s Sliders

The event was so much fun, hanging out with all my friends and riding with them. I used to watch all the pros in awe wishing I could be out there, and now I was joining them. I also walked in a charity bikini fashion show to benefit cancer. It was such a great time!!!

Check out all my photos and coverage from the event. enjoy

Cable Park Rat

I decided to go on a trip to Florida this past month to ride at the cable parks. I had never done it before and had wanted to for a few years now. I ended up loving it so much that I stayed for over a month riding cable everyday. I love cable because its the closest thing to kiteboarding possible. I love rails and sliders so I figured it was the perfect cross training for me. Usually I spend my summers in Hood River, OR., but I decided to take a chance on life and take an offer I received to be an instructor at Orlando Watersports Complex. I will be riding cable everyday and working on my slider skills. I am very excited, but also sad at the same time to leave my favorite place in the world, Hood River. I will be visiting Oregon a few times this summer though, to ride in the Ro Sham Throw down, and then to visit all my favorite people! I added a couple photos below of my cable riding so far, look out for a video in the near future!
