Victoria has been one of the top Jr.Women riders in the country the last few years, being active with her sponsors, and on the tournament scene, has made her a great addition to her teams. Now she will be serving another team, the USA. She has made a huge life decision, and will be shipping out with the Navy next week. We hope that everyone in the wakeboard world will reach out and wish her well on her new journey. There will be a bon voyage party on the 9th of May, in Tampa,FL. Please feel free to hit me up for any details. Good luck VIK, and good winds, calm seas. <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65919/692799.jpg" alt="Upload">

Victoria, to make a decision like that is just amazing. Living a life in wakeboarding that alot will never have a chance to have, and still doing more. I've got several buddies serving overseas currently, so this is something close to home for me. Thank you for doing what your doing for our country. God bless you, and come home safe!

wow, that's awesome, thanks for posting! Good Luck Victoria!

GOOD LUCK, I SERVED IN THE NAVY FOR 3 YEARS... BACK IN THE 70'S. I SERVED LOTS OF MEALS... I WAS A COOK, WORKED 15 DAYS A MONTH...LOT'S OF FUN - NOBODY MESSES WITH THE COOKS... HAVE A SAVE ADVENTURE RIDE WHEREVER YOU CAN. ALOHA JOE. <BR>USS HIGBEE DD 806 AND USS DEHAVEN DD 727, NOW I AM THE CAPTAIN OF MY 2005 SUPERAIR NAUTIQUE!

Big props to you Victoria, thank you!!

I drove Victoria from Chicago to Nationals last year and I think she is awesome. Props to her for going to protect our great country. Hope you stay safe. Who knows maybe she will ride with the Pro Women in the future.

I salute Victoria's skill and her service. Think how amazed her shipmates will be if she gets a chance to show them her other lifestyle.

thanks everyone!! im really excited and it should be an amazing experience, maybe ill pop up to a few tournaments here and there, we'll see! haha

Victoria thanks for the Service you are about to provide!

Good Luck Victoria. Thanks for Serving... <BR>You will always ride better than me...so Props to you...

Props Victoria!

Victoria, such a selfless thing to do. Good luck, stay safe and enjoy your experiences. Thank you for your selfless committment.

I've known Vic since she was around 9 or 10 riding out of Arkansas. Good luck with the Navy.

Victoria, good luck and safe travels!

Just out of curiosity, what was the decision to choose the Navy? If I had to serve I think I would make the same choice, or Air Force but most likely the Navy.

Navy, 'cause you can't wakeboard behind a F-16. Plus Joe Umali is in SanDiego, photo ops!!

Victoria!! I thought this was going to be wakeboarding associated and man was I surprised!! What an adventure your life has in store! Are you going to Great Lakes? You have alot of wakeboarding families in the area!! Cant wait to hear updates on your status! Congratulations and thank you!!

For those of you who didn't make it to the party last night, you missed out, it was a blast. Good luck Victoria in your new ventures. Hua!!

Victoria! we're all going to miss you! good luck! squeeze a little time in to come back to arkansas and ride!

Well, she's off. To all the parents out there, that was one of the toughest things ever, to see one of your kids fly out of the nest. VIK, miss you already!

Thanks alot! It's an awesome thing your doing for our country!
