Halloween wake boarding, you say?

A very different Halloween affair altogether happens in Grand Canal Dock every October now.. Ghost and ghouls and vikings and… zebras, and convicts… and monkeys… and penguins, took part in this, the second Halloween fancy dress wake-jam session…

Irish Pro Wakeboarder, David O’Caoimh, from Killiney, Co Dublin, has landed the world’s first Toe-Side Back-side 900 trick.During a dawn shoot in Cavan, David attempted the infamously difficult trick, completing 2 and a half 360 degree turns, before landing safely.
David competes at home and across the world in international competitions. David consistently lands podium places, only recently returning from The World Games, Columbia with a bronze medal. The above video is a short excerpt from a stunning summer video recently shot in Cavan. (to be released later this week).

This is for Wakedock , Ireland’s very first wakeboarding cable park. The guys opened in March and we shot the video for them over a glorious weekend in June — hopefully it shows how much fun their whole setup is and how much fun you can have on the water right in the city centre.
A wakeboarding cable is unique because you don’t need a boat, it’s a very quiet system and is really safe (and much much easier!) to learn on.
