    Tara Mikacich is the best. Just give her the award now!!! If you have not seen her ride you are missing out! This woman is like Andrea back in the day! Her style is off the charts! She does it all the big tricks the sliders any obstacles in her path are destroyed.. Not to mention she has the best coach in the world… Her Husband and Hall of Famer Cobe… If you have not been to Freedom Wakeboarding park/school do yourself a favor and go!!!! I highly recommend it!!!!

    would be super sick to see this comp without voting too! that way it’s not a popularity contest and more of a real comp.

    • LessThan5 September 28, 2023 at 12:01 pm - Reply

      vote is only 20% of score. the lines are also being judged. And there is a live event they are trying to qualify for that is all judges.
