Wally the watermelon - Post Production

For my 20th birthday I celebrated with a crazy challange in the harsh Mackay heat. I set out to film a wakeboard edit consisting of 20 of my favourite tricks, however many laps it took me to make the edit I ran the same distance around the lake barefoot (hint, more than a marathon)

Rumble on the Reef Live Stream

Looking for volunteer assistance in filming the wakeboard event Rumble on the Reef in September.
