It’s Friday, which is the best day of the week, so here’s a coupon for 10% off everything (well, not really everything) at Wakeside.com. If you’ve been looking for an excuse to pick up some new wakeboard gear, or some apparel from the best brands in the industry, here you go!

The offer ends this weekend though, and the coupon can only be used one time, so choose wisely.

Save 10% On Wakeboard Gear »

Sure, the water is getting a little colder and the days aren’t quite as long, but now is the best time of the year to save on wakeboarding gear. Many manufacturers only change the graphics on their boards from one year to the next, which makes picking up a new kit at the end of the season even more attractive.

Wakeside.com is going one step further by offering an additional 10% off closeout prices on any 2008 board and boot paired together. That means you can get package pricing on that Ronix One Wakeboard/One boot combo you’ve been eying. Or how does a Liquid Force Substance & Watson Boot Package for $336.50 sound?

If that’s got your attention, here’s what you need to know:

• Add any 2008 wakeboard and 2008 boot to your cart to be eligible for the discount.
• During checkout, enter the coupon PACKAGES to automatically receive the discount.

Drive the video is out (we’ll have a review up soon), and is on its way to being the most popular wakeboard video of the year. If you don’t have a copy yet, we want to hook you up with a free autographed copy of Drive, courtesy of Wakeside.com and BFY Productions.

All you have to do to win is post a comment on this post about why you deserve a free copy of Drive the movie. The winner will be chosen at random, so we aren’t judging the quality of your comment, but it needs to be on topic.

Here are the rules:

• Only one entry per person. That means you can only comment on this post one time, if you comment more than once you will be automatically disqualified.
• This contest is open to residents of the Continental United States (sorry, it’s not by choice).
• Contest ends 11:59PM PST on July 30th, 2008.

We’ll announce the winners within one week of the close of the contest. If you can’t wait until then to watch Drive, you can purchase a copy right now at Wakeside.com. Good luck!

Sean Kilgus, BFY Productions, has delivered another masterpiece in DRIVE. This is his follow up film to such titles as Butter Effect, Bent Felix, and Running on Empty. Wake films we all have watched over and over.

The rider line up in this film is ridiculous and includes many of the worlds best. Randall Harris, Rusty Malinoski, Danny Harf, Chad Sharpe, Trevor Hansen, Jimmy Lariche, Ben Greenwood, Gabe Lucas, JD Webb, Jeff McKee, Erik Ruck, and Adam Errington all have sections.

Order your copy from Wakeside.com and check out a short trailer after the jump.

After much anticipation, and a lot of hype, the day has finally come. Rusty Malinoski’s Hyperlite Marek wakeboard is finally available for the world’s wakeboarders to try. We’ve covered Rusty’s new pro-model in great detail already, so we’ll skip the basics.

What you need to know is that the long wait is finally over, and the Marek is now available for purchase. Whether you’re a heavy, aggressive rider, or just have ambitions of landing a 1080, the Hyperlite Marek is worth a look. And with weather warming up throughout the nation, what better way to mark the official beginning of summer than with a new wakeboard.
