EPISODE 34: Andy Oke
Andy Oke is a Canadian wake park owner, rider, and has been referred to as one of the "fathers" of the current Canadian wakeboard scene. Raised near Lake Huron, Andy didn't grow up with countless days filled with sunshine, calm water, and perfect wakes. But the passion for wakeboarding still was strong, and as he rode more he continued to pursue the sport. From his humble beginnings running a surf shop and being a bouncer, to owning and operating a cable park with three 2-tower systems, Andy has been active in the wake community to say the least. Naked wakeboarding, getting punched in the face, losing a wakepark, starting another wakepark, driving 21 hours straight, Jay Brearley, friends getting thrown through glass, countless tacos, a fascination for operating 2 tower cables, and being allergic to water. Hear all that and much more in Episode 34 of the Grab Matters Podcast.
