Kane Ward - 9 Year Old Hyperlite Team Rider

Every time I get a chance to ride w Kane, he's learned something new, and this time is no different! The Raley is now on his list of tricks and he wanted to do one over me, so bring it on! We had some technical difficulties and didn't capture the audio during some of the edit but didn't want to let some of this great footage go on the editing room floor.

I always wear a CGA vest. It doesn't hurt as bad when I slam.

Yeah I do too it doesn’t hurt that much and havent gotten winded yet

Kane’s weekend was NUTS! He is so awesomeness and makes me feel young again and remembering the past when you clicked and learned a ton in 48 hours. It does not happen to most but to those whom it does, it is amazing! Thanks For all your content!

"This kid is going to be a legend when he grows up" Oh wait he’s a legend already

[@wakewoman1]

Hi Shaun. I happened upon your video by chance. Wow, What talent. Both of you!. I am a 66 year old woman who ended up getting a pontoon boat and within a week I got really bored. LOL. So, I bought myself a tube. Bored again. Got myself a knee board. Again, yes bored. I ended up getting a wakeboard with no idea how to use one. My friends thought I was crazy and I would probably kill myself or end up in the hospital. After many fails, I taught myself how to get up and ride and feel really at home on the board. I absolutely am in love with wakeboarding! Yes, heads turn when they see this old woman cutting it up on the board. LOL. I can ride switch but have never jumped a wake or have done anything spectacular. After all, I'm behind a pontoon boat. I subscribed to your channel because I have never seen anyone so personable as you in this sport and who is completely at home on the water. Thank you Shaun, I am so grateful to have seen this and now more of your videos. Thank you!

[@Shaun.Murray]

I love this story Parker! You can find instructional playlist on my channel and if you have questions feel free to let me know!

[@chzxv4078]

This is so Beautiful.

Thank you so much Shaun!

There you go again,just when the last pre teen bad ass video making me feel inadequate wore off a little bit you hit me with another,thanks Shaun for feeding my motivation!

[@Shaun.Murray]

Happy to help Dave!

[@jatboomer]

I appreciate u still ripping it up at age 40+ as it gives me hope that I can still improve and learn more spins and flips at age 40+. Thx again!

[@BenBroy]

Love all your videos, your a legend and that kid rocks! I have been wakeboarding for roughly 6 years and lost my leg in a motorcycle accident 5 years ago. I still wakeboard and pull wake to wake jumps and a few other tricks but my goal is to pull off a tantrum this season. I also wake surf and almost have the 360 down. Keep killing it man, your such an inspiration to me.

[@Shaun.Murray]

Keep charging Ben! I just E-met another guy who recently lost his foot in a motorcycle accident, lives in Norcal. He's having a hard time getting up on his board so we're chatting to see what can help out. Love that you're keeping the stoke Ben!

[@cortana323]

This kid is such a badass, I really hope he makes a career in this. You can just tell how much skill he has from watching his form. Prob studied Shaun's vids aahah

[@nicholasdawson9896]

Hyperlite Murray 133 - keep it fun Kane Ward great rider, thanks Shaun for all the positivity!

[@patrickstabler7183]

Awesome that you repeat you motivation for CGA again and again. I ride with a CGA life jacked since I headed over to OWC in 2019 and it feels way better than a comp vest. Thanks Shaun for keeping up with your great KZbin contend

[@brandycarrillo883]

Safety first! It always makes my day when you have this talk. I know not your brand - but just got my new Hyperlite Domain - amazing progress for the ladies! And Kane is lookin 🔥 🤙

Keep it fun! You've always been my favorite rider. Got me started in the mid 90's on my first Murray honeycomb. Now i'm taking my kids out on our boat to try and learn soon! Love it. Keep it up.

[@Shaun.Murray]

Right on Casey! Which Murray Honeycomb? You see my new shop setup? kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6K7g4tjfcxlppo

[@CBPrintsandGifts]

@@Shaun.Murray , So i'm having trouble finding the exact model online. I want to say it was the Fluid model, but honeycomb. It was a darker board with blueish swirl design on it. I snapped it jumping over a 5mph bouy that i mis-calculated. Do you have model that matches that description from around 1996-1998? I'm super curious which one it is now! I'll check out your new shop vid :)

[@TheHipHopNinjaIsrael]

Dude! Landing is so clean!!!!!

[@tysonaf]

This dude will be throwing doubles before he gets to middle school. Awesome.

Killer moves that kid has! Keep it fun!

[@LydiaNunVlogs]

keep it fun! been getting into wakeboarding more and more but my board is extremely old. would love to get the opportunity to ride your board. i have been watching your videos for so long and i used to just look up your name and watch every video and just see how much fun your having while doing your job and i think that’s so cool! to see the life you’ve created for urself is so inspiring and awesome to watch.

[@MauroVM1]

I want a class from you and Kane! You are one of my legends and now this little man as well! hopefully I'll get to enjoy a ride/class with you guys one day!

I’m super lucky my grandparents own a cabin with a lake. The lake is literally in there backyard! And I go tubing, water skiing and wave boarding!

HyperLite Murray 133, Phrase- Keep it Fun. Love the vids they are very encouraging. New intro is sick btw. We are still riding a old board on lake Murray and could use a upgrade. 😉

[@CoffeeNo0b0514]

Just started wakeboarding 2 weeks ago at 33 years old. I can get out of the water every time, but staying off my butt or face is a other story. Had a bad toe side crash in choppy water outside of the wake. Hit my face so hard I had an instant headache. I'll keep at it. I don't want to be able to do big tricks, but being able to safely carve and maybe a wake to wake someday. Love your videos

[@Shaun.Murray]

Make sure your speed is staying around 16-18 max while you're getting your legs FJ. I see too many people going way too fast while learning.

[@CoffeeNo0b0514]

Hey Murray I love your videos and I can’t wait to see more. Me and my friends have recently gotten into wakeboarding we are using a old board from the 1900s I think. I think it would be so cool if we won the board it would be a huge upgrade and We would really appreciate it. we will definitely keep it fun and progress a lot over the summer!!

Mr. Murray. I'd like to thank you for all your instructional videos on how to wakeboard. This weekend was my first time getting up on a wakeboard had only taken me two times to get up successfully after watching your instructional videos.if you have any tips on board sizing it would be much appreciated. It's awesome to have Pros like you to take time out of your time to help us Noobs. To enjoy the sport you guys love an have passion for. Have fun & be safe

[@Shaun.Murray]

Right on Mederic! What are your stats? Height and weight? Sorry if it's too personal of a question for here:) Just height is fine too:)

Keep it Fun indeed! I think I bruised ribs last week with a Slalom wipe out. Been unable to ski, run or paddle board for a week. But I think my CGA vest saved me from a lot of impact. My sons been skiing since 3. He’s 12 now and in a Liquid Force Fury 125. Hrs small for 12. If you care to see him ski I’ve got a YT channel with some video of him.

Shaun how has your body allowed you to go BIG for all these years? I myself only rode for 7 years and I wasn't even competing , yet I basically have to psych myself out just to stand up after kneeling because my knees are toasted! How about Kane who started in the sport at the age of two, does he have a action plan he is utilizing to sustain his body for the future? I wish you both good health and good luck for many years to come...

[@samtalus6435]

Personally I think that going to the gym is really important. in the gym you can really improve the fitness of your muscles and strength.

[@Shaun.Murray]

Def thankful for the many years of big air. I try to stay active, stretch sometimes but not as much as I should. Play w my kids when I can and eat pretty well. And when I do ride, I don't just go for it if I haven't ridden in a while. I ease myself back into riding by taking it easy and then go for it after a few sets at least. But, I also don't ride massive wakes all the time.
