Christian Forssten My Naga Wakeboard Edit Christian Forssten has been one of those riders on the ELEVATED Wake Team who, while hailing from Sweden, has never let himself or his exposure be confined to the borders of Scandinavia. Christian constantly puts in work to bring his riding out to the world and travels as often as he can to ride in exotic places. With that in mind, it's no wonder he's consistently dropping sick edits for our viewing pleasure. This time it's "My Naga" from his trip to CWC Wake Park in 2016. Don't speak Swedish? That's okay, we're pretty sure you'll understand the title from watching the video, seeing Christian ball out on his board, and paring that with the lyrics of the soundtrack. Like the shirts that Christian is wearing? Check them out below the video and pick one up. Christian certainly is... "My Naga" for this one. -Machi Block ELEVATED

Everybody is so Stoked! That's the opening line of the 2014 Breddas Battle of the BackYard BOTBY edit. This year's event looks like it was the best yet, with athletes and fans showing up from around the world to ride, watch, and just have an all around amazing time. For those of you who don't know, Breddas are some of the sickest wakeboarders out there, comprised of 3 brothers from Sweden who have built their very own wake park in their back yard. Each year in the fall, they throw Battle of the Back Yard and host Scandinavia's biggest wakeboard competition. If you ask us, this is a wake event done right. Breddas have successfully been bringing the action sports and youth lifestyle culture together under one roof for quite some time now. Motocross, skateboarding, daredevils, hip hop, and some of the best wakeboarding on the planet. No wonder they get so many people to show up and have a good time. If you want a better insight into what I'm saying... just watch the video and let

Wake Culture: Surf City Cable Park Competition ELEVATED Team Wakeskater Erik Nilsson took 1st place in the Surf-City.no Cable Park competition over the summer in Norway. Erik is a super talented Swedish Wakeskater who has been getting after it like crazy lately. It's awesome to see him out and about, traveling Scandinavia and many parts of Europe to ride different cable parks and enter numerous competitions. His skill is outstanding and he's got the victories to prove it. This is a really fun and short edit depicting the typical competition day in Norway. Wakeboarders, Wakeskaters, SUP'ing, and of course lots of fun. Check it out and give it a share. Congratulations on the win
