Jamie Lopina Takes the Boat and Cable Wins at the Moxie Pro Series Finals
The Body Glove Moxie Pro Series wrapped up its months-long competition in Atlanta, Ga., last weekend with two huge events. All of the women showed off their incredible skill with a boat event hosted by the Pro Wakeboard Tour at Lake Lanier and a cable event at Lake Terminus Wake Park. Both events were taken by Ronix rider Jamie Lopina.
The boat event provided a perfect wake behind the Supra SA 550. Lopina landed a series of technically diverse tricks with no falls, earning her the top spot at the podium. Agentinian Eugenia De Armas threw down some of the most technical tricks of the day, but crashed just be her run was complete, still earning her a second place title. Taylor McCollough rounded out the podium in third place.
For the cable event, Lopina, Terminus Wake Park local Rivers Hedrick, and German Ronix rider Julia Rick put on a show for the crowd - some of the best women's wakeboarding you've ever seen. Each rider stomped 720s off the kicker, hit every rail, spinning in both directions on every hit, with solid rail to rail transfers all on the same feature. Lopina stole the top spot again, with Hedrick and Rick close behind.
Lopina took the spotlight over the weekend, but all of the women showed off their incredible skill for the crowd, making for a great, second-annual event.
