Oakley Solidifies Wake Team For 2008

If you haven’t seen Push Process, the video from acclaimed director Justin Stephens that highlights Oakley team riders, you definitely need to get a copy. It was without a doubt one of the best films of last year, and coming from a brand like Oakley, it definitely made a statement about the direction they plan on taking their wakeboard team.
Oakley has again stepped up their commitment to the wake industry by adding Nick Taylor to their team, and extending their contracts with George Daniels and Danny Hampson. As more main-stream brands, like Oakley, get involved with the wake industry hopefully awareness will continue to build, which will bring more popularity to the sport we love.
Check out the full press release on Oakley’s new wakeboard team after the jump.
Like pretty much every one in the wakeboard industry, we thought Justin Stephen’s film from last year, The Truth, was amazing. From the first time we saw the final cut we were asking ourselves “how can he possibly top this?” Enter Push Process, the new Oakley team video directed by, yep you guess it, Justin Stephens. This time Chase Heavener (that’s a name from the past) also works his magic with incredible effects.
