In this installment of Little Rippers, 10-year old Jameson Viramontes shows his skill and style while wakeboarding on Melton Lake, near Knoxville, Tennessee. According to his mom, Emily, Jameson began wakeboarding two years ago.
“Jameson would wakeboard everyday if he could,” Emily says. “ He is a huge fan of MasterCraft boats, and we own the XT22t. His board of choice is the Murray Jr Hyperlite board.”

“He has been lucky enough to wakeboard with some pros during the MasterCraft photo shoot the past two years,” Emily continued, “ and he loves to attend the Pro Wakeboard Tour each year to meet more of them.”
His favorite trick is a switch 180 or an Indie grab.
