Brandon Robins
In 2003 Brandon Robins graduated high school and had full ride college opportunities for baseball, but his eyes were elsewhere looking at wakeboarding as a career. Brandon started working hard on his riding skills riding exceptionally well in semi pro competitions. In 2005 Brandon spent the summer traveling across the country with the wakeboard company Liquid Force. While on the road he met Spencer Norris from WIT productions and was featured in WIT Productions wakeboard films The Arrival and One Eye Shut. That summer he was also featured in Scratch Films The Good Times . While filming Brandon continued to ride in all of the local pro comps and was featured in multiple photo shoots for Malibu Boats.
In 2009, Brandons life changed forever after he was in a major motorcycle accident that nearly took his life that left his leg amputated below the right knee. Since then he hasnt let it slow him down! 5 months from the accident Brandon went snow skiing again and only 9 months into his recovery he went to Florida to wakeboard again for the first time. While there Wakeboard Magazine covered him in a 2 page article. From there he went to Texas and competed in the Extremity Games taking third after only riding a few times since his accident.
Brandon cant wait for the future, he says, I know I will be back at the level of riding that I am used to, my goal is to set up clinics through Adaptive Action Sports for people that may not have been able to wakeboard before due to physical limitations. I also want to pursue a career in public speaking and show people that life is too short! We need to live life like there is no tomorrow! Check out Brandons website here WWW.BROBINS.COM
