Zane Montgomery

Zane has been surfing since he was 6 years old.  He is currently 10 years old and going into the 5th grade in College Station, Texas.  Zane gives thanks to his uncle for introducing the sport to him.  He started surfing behind his Malibu, and last summer has changed to a Centurion Enzo.  Most days when he is surfing he is riding behind an Aztec Crow, unless his Uncle Rod is out in his Enzo.  Most of his summer days are spent out on Lake Somerville, Lake Stanmire, and Gibbons Creek enjoying all water sports. When on land he enjoys skate boarding, tennis, and riding four wheelers! Zane is very excited about this growing sport and the upcoming season ahead.

Caroline Villeneuve

In 2006 I was introduced to the sport of Wakesurfing, again I fell in love instantly. In 2007, with a gentle push from my sponsor, I began to split training time between wakeboarding and wakesurfing. Because I worked as a coach, I had the opportunity to train almost every day! In 2007 I competed in my first wakesurfing competition. In 2008 I decided to focus all of my training time into wakesurfing. I realized it was an amazing, emergent sport that is growing in popularity. I also had the chance to train with one of the best wakesurfer I know: Dominic Lagacé (Canadian Champion & 2nd position at the 2008 World Wakesurfing Championship). At this point, I was offered sponsorship with Billabong through Orbite Sport Shop.
