I can’t help but get excited for the Seven Peaks Rail Jam on Sept 5. If you like the video make sure to vote it up for the ‘Get in X-Dance Video Contest’

For some it started with a four drive from Vegas, while others made the 2 hour drive from Salt Lake, but once you got to Delta everyone had the same goal, to conquer the sixty foot rail that stood perched outside of the Webster’s house. Those who decided to come up the night before were rewarded with a night session that went till around 2 am. After starting a fire on the beach and throwing a couple of spotlights on the rail, it just seemed too good of a setting to pass up. It was one of the best rail sessions I have been at. After a quick nights sleep under the stars it was time to start the competition. After talking with the riders we decided to run head to head brackets with each rider getting three hits at the rail. After everyone got a chance to hit the rail and try all the different flavors of Zotes Sunflower Seeds, it came down to a show down between Ethan Roberts, Marc Glover, & Ryan Webster. Despite some really impressive attempts by Ethan & Marc it was Webster’s consistency that got him first place.  Altogether the event made for some perfect footage for everyone who is getting stuff put together for the ‘Get into X-Dance Contest.’

Results:

1. Ryan Webster

2. Ethan Roberts

3. Marc Glover

Thanks to the Webster’s for letting everyone come down and crash their back yard and to all the sponsors: Zotes Sunflower Seeds, Fred’s Marine, Utah Water Sports, D.F.T.R.

Kolton Barney is one of those guys who is good at almost everything he does. He is an accomplished Moto Cross rider who is usually top five amongst his intermediate class, with a few podium finishes. Kolton can shred the sloped on a winter board. He has also been known, in his past, to bang on a few drums, winning a few local competitions, including the Utah Talent Competition.

Luckily for WakeUtah, his friends and family, and all the bro’s he rides with, Kolton jumped on a wakeboard a few years back. After taking top honors in the IWA intermediate class last year, Kolton has moved up to the advanced class where his winning streak continues. After a gnarly crash at the Yuba stop, Kolton took care of Saratoga Springs winning first place. He then took 5th at East Canyon and 3rd at the most recent Idaho Boardstock. His winnings include 1st place at Wake in the Woods.

Kolton is continuing to progress and gain his style. He has a huge tantrum, crazy twisted up shifty, a bunch of grab variations, and loves to spin, usually throwing back to back heel and toe 3’s. Kolton is also starting to throw down on the rail scene. He keeps it clean to the end of every rail, even the new 60 foot Delta Res monster, and is now starting to learn a new move every session. Kolton is all ready starting to put the steeze on, way out on the nose and tail.

Kolton is an upbeat person who has a good time out on the water. He is easy to get along with, and loves to take people out on the boat, especially the ladies. Kolton enjoys meeting, riding, and learning from fellow riders, and is more than willing to take anyone out and even teach them a few things. Make sure to keep an eye on Kolton, who will be bringing the awesome to all the local events and rail jams. Introduce yourself or give him a shout and take a session, it will be good times.

What is it about wakeboarding? Wakeboarding has a real mellow vibe. It’s all about having a good time with friends hanging out on the boat. All the self progression while riding. It makes you open yourself and you mind. When you go big it feels sick.

What do you like about the local scene? It has introduced me to a great group of friendly people and riders. Everyone feeds off each other and gets ideas from each other. Riding with the local community is making us better riders, and friends.

Who do you ride with? Marc Glover, Colton Brockbank, Ethen Roberts, D.C. Bateman, any and all locals, more everyday, and Dewey the rail man of course
