We sat down with our fiend TJ Giesey to catch up and talk about what he has been up to recently from riding with an awesome crew of wakeskaters in Orlando to judging the 2024 season of the PWL.
We also took this opportunity in the second half of the pod to soft launch a new monthly or bi-monthly (in the off season) series called "The Debrief" where we will gather some of our favourite clips, online edits and short films in wakeskating over the past month and talk about them. The clips will be posted in the instagram pods with the podcast artwork, for you to follow along.
Unfortunately we ran out of time to cover all that we wanted to, but we hope you enjoy what we did and stay tuned for the next episode of "The Debrief" coming soon. Thanks for listening and as always we will see you next Wakeskate Wednesday.
