INTERVIEW
Full Name?
Nicholas Roy Jones
Birthdate?
Lets just say I had to start putting on “wrinkle reduction” cream each night
Birth Place?
Same place as wakeboarding’s birth place: Redmond, WA. Coincidence..? I don’t think so!
What board and binding set up are you riding this season?
Faction board & bindings. So stoked on this set up, been riding it for a few years now. I can’t get enough of the consistent pop and smooth landings the board delivers, love it!
Who would play you in a movie?
Sylvester Stallone. We’d have to die his hair blonde and curl it, but then he’d be dead on!
Where do you live now?
Ocala, FL
First job?
Luggage handler at the airport. So when people came down the escalator at Orlando Airport, I’d be the guy holding the sign with their name on it.
What are you looking forward to this summer?
The new Justin Bieber album, dropping mid June!
One sport you would never try?
Woman’s roller derby
Most annoying thing about you?
My friends
How would you describe your riding style?
Lucrative
Do you have any wakeboarding superstitions or habits?
I try to always share helmets with Andrew Adkison. I notice we both tend to ride better when we do. At the end of the season it progressed to sharing our contest bib also. I can only imagine how far it will go this year.
Have you filmed for any videos lately?
Yeah we’ve been filming a bunch for iwake.com. Keep checking regularly for all the best wake videos out there.
What would you say is the best part about riding for CWB?
The Team Poster shoots! We just get the whole team together and by the end of the day, after a bunch of shenanigans, a poster always comes together. Ohh, can’t forget about handing out free product to chicks! That’s always a good time.
Favorite Television show?
Wife Swap
Sponsors?
Zinka Sunscreen, Matrix Knee Braces, Raw Rev Food Bars, iwake.com, and I feel like I’m missing one…..
