Top 10 Riders of All Time: #6-Jeff Goldblum

Coming in at #6 is Jeff Goldblum, one of the key pieces in getting the VT Wakeboard Club on the map. The former President was a longtime CWB rider that has recently switched over to Humanoid. Jeff is a rider who does things the right way. He grabs almost all of his tricks, which includes plenty of bangers. Batwings, 540s, Roll to Reverts, Switch Backside Spins, you name it: Jeff does it with style. His long stint at VT included a major ankle injury, but Jeff fought back to ride better than ever. He posted one of VT's best individual performances with a 1st place finish in Men's B at Alt Games 2012 (Nationals) in Oklahoma City. The judges rewarded his diverse bag of tricks and the work he puts in to grab every trick. He threw down a flawless run that included a good mix of inverts, spins, and raley-based tricks, with zero falls. That victory combined with a HS BS 180 that is so stylish that he tweaked his knee from poking it so hard, makes Jeff one of the best riders in VT wake history.
