A true “late bloomer” on the wakeboarding circuit, Mark is referred to as “Pops” by the all the new kids. A beach bum at heart, Mark is only found being pulled on a wakeboard when the surf is down at the beach. Mark is best know on the surfing circuit for making the 14′ pillowtop the must-have board. Mark once said that the only thing better than riding the baby waves on his 14′ longboard is grabbing Sweet Baby Air!

Pops shows that he can grab the Baby Air just like the kids and pays dearly, just like the kids!

A nice run is cut short when Mark goes down trying to avoid a large stick in the water.
