Jimmy LaRiche | The Grab Matters Podcast - Episode 75

Jimmy LaRiche is a former pro rider who still cares about wakeboarding today just as much as he was when he was riding. Starting on the cable at Ski Rixen in south Florida, Jimmy made a transition to boat pretty smoothly. Wakeboarding with Tom Brady, riding with Adam Errington, getting mentored by Erik Ruck, winning Brostock, several pro models, board tech, ROTY pick, transitioning from a rider to a salesman, and moving to Oregon. Hear all that and much more in Episode 75 of the Grab Matters Podcast with Jimmy LarRiche. Follow Jimmy: https://www.instagram.com/jim_shot_it/Thank you to our sponsors:Liquid Force: https://www.liquidforce.com/Chapters:00:00 - 1:40 Intro3:40 Tom Brady15:40 First time riding19:10 Ski Rixen24:00 Boat riding25:00 Guest Question: Adam Errington32:30 Erik Rucks Mentorship 37:20 2008 Brostock42:00 Early sponsors 45:20 Brandon Meek vs. Jimmy LaRiche48:50 LF’n Wheel of Questions53:17 Pro Models57:50 Board tech1:03:55 Getting dropped1:07:30 Sponsors1:17:50 Nautique 1:22:00 Ending your pro career 1:29:30 Moving to Oregon1:37:00 ROTY1:40:30 Setup1:47:00 Patreon Questions1:49:40 Guest Question: Rusty Malinoski1:54:00 Patreon Questions1:56:00 Unicycling across Florida…?2:00:00 Rails on PWT?2:06:00 “Cheers To Summer” edit2:08:40 Red Bull in MiamiLinks:Incomplete: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7W-SKoK8zrIChristmas Special: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Evu5AEDbEpE&t=389sCheer To Summer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAp61f1ibMoShoot us a text!Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GrabMattersPodcastWebsite: https://www.grabmatters.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@grabmatters/videosInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/grabmatters/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@grabmatterspodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/grabmatters
