Justin Stephens and Silas Thurman sure have been busy lately… In addition to the new wakeskate company they recently announced , now we learn that they’ve already started filling out their team, starting with Ben Horan and Andrew Pastura.
Looks like Remote Wakeskates is off to a good start for such a young company. We can’t wait to see what they can do when they actually have some product to show off.
Check out the PR after the jump.
From the desk of Silas Thurman, at the Remote offices,
Your probably wondering what this is all about so here it goes….
Ben Horan, Andrew Pastura and myself split up some lottery tickets last week and hit it…I mean we hit it big. I don’t want to give out the exact number because of tax reasons, butit was between the numbers of 8 million and 8.2 million.
When thinking of what we wanted to do with the money a lot of things came to mind for all of us. One was just to buy all of our respective states here in the USA, but when contacting Oregon,
Georgia, and Ohio, it turns out that they were more expensive then we thought. In fact, they laughed at us. We had to bag that idea…Then, while walking outside to take a quick rip around the lake, it hit us…“Our own wakeskate company where we call the shots, we design the boards, we do the graphics, we pick the name, we design the logo, and we’ll even be in charge of our ad direction.” It seemed so right, so natural, so…REMOTE!
This is what we’ve got so far:
Name: Remote
Team: Ben Horan, Andrew Pastura, and Silas Thurman
Brand Manager: Silas Thurman
Website: www.remotewakeskates.com
Product drop dates: TBD
Goals: Were here to build a brand and products for you “ the rider “. We want this sport to grow the right way, and there are a lot of people out there making that happen…We want to support that…Ummmmm, yah…That’s it for now. Get ready for some fun…
Silas, Ben, and Andrew
