Adam Fields

Parents taught me to ski at a young age. Skiing evolved to wakeboarding. Wakeboarding was my dream job and I worked to make my dream come true. My favorite tricks are: Toeside Front Flip w/Tail grab, Nose grabbed Slim Chance 540, and Heelside Backside 720. Lately I’ve been jamming to Big Wild. Prior to competing a try to get my body as lively and loose as it gets so I can go big! Squats, jumping jacks, stretching, and a fair amount of pacing usually get the job done.

Aside from being behind the boat, I love to teach others and grow watersports. This will be the 19th year of my wakeboard and wakesurf school, the 13th year of my boardshop, and 2nd year of my boat rentals business. One day I’d like to own a boat dealership of my own.
