Savanah Barber Rules At FreeZride New Braunfels, TX - The First Annual TSR FreeZride event lived up to its name! With a cold front and some serious wind-chill dipping temps into the 40’s Saturday, wake athletes not only braved the elements but some serious early season competition that kept things heated up on both the cable and boat lakes. On Sunday, during the motox competition, a morning rainstorm leveled the playing field for all the riders. By afternoon, however, the game was on for another round of great riding. The stories of the weekend were 3 riders proving that versatility rules when it comes to the power of crossing over: skate and wake crossovers, Chris Ramirez and Savanah Barber, and wake and motox crossover Dustin Shows.
The coming out story of the weekend had to be Savanah Barber. Savanah has spent a lot of time in skateparks, so it was no surprise how fast she took to the obstacles in both wakeboarding and wakeskating. Savanah won the obstacle competition on the cable lake in both womens wakeboard and wakeskate. Savanah also took second in wakeskate behind the boat. The most impressive part is that in both wakeskate events Savanah competed against the guys. Pulling off shuvits behind the boat on the cable on top of obstacles off obstacles, just about anywhere she wantes. Savanah showed she was right where she belonged with the men in the wakeskate competitions.
The weekend was great and left everyone wanting more and looking forward to CableStock in May when temperatures are a little warmer and the days a little longer. But most importantly, the pace was set and the bar was raised on Texas riding, as the showing at TSR's FreeZride was strong.
TSR would like to thank the event sponsors: MasterCraft, Devoe Paint, Board Shop, Burger King, WakeZone, San Marcos Toyota, HyperLite, One West Clothing, Alliance, Gator Boards, Obrien, Oneil, Kicker
