The�sport
With nearly 3.5 million participants in the U.S., wakeboarding has a dedicated corps of riders whose identities are tied to its spirit and lifestyle. These participants are young, opinionated, and have resources to spend.
When you add equally passionate and rapidly growing factions of wakeskating and wakesurfing enthusiasts, you have a growing community of boardsport participants with significant purchasing power. We are snowboarding and surfing to millions of riders in the middle of our country who don’t have a mountain or an ocean. As access to these sports grows regularly with the propagation of cable parks throughout the country and globe, wakeboarding has become a truly global activity.
ALLIANCE
For the past thirteen years, Alliance Wakeboard Magazine has been the
magazine of choice for true wakeboarders and wakeskaters. Our readers expect
Alliance to be on the frontline of our activities and they eagerly anticipate each
issue. Alliance Wakeboard Magazine is independently published and solely focused
on bringing our readers the most current and complete editorial coverage of our
sports. Our editorial experience is used not only to cover wakeboarding, wakeskating
and wakesurfing, but also to actively unearth new regions, athletes, participants and
markets. Coupled with the power and reach of alliancewake.com, alliancewakeskate.com
and alliancewakesurf.com we have the ability to connect with wake enthusiasts on a
truly global scale.
