As we await Nick Schrein's new VT Wake full length movie, Gnarcolepsy, we wanted to bring it back a few years for Throwback Thursday. Gauntlet was Nick's first full length effort, filmed back in 2008. It's fun to look back at some VT riders back in the day and see how they have progressed since then. Joel is the only rider still around from Gauntlet, but many of the featured riders still wakeboard regularly. It's also cool to see the progression in filming and editing quality by Nick. His skills and equipment have improved a lot over 4 or 5 years and Gnarcolepsy will be some of his best work yet. Another nugget: The band featured in this Gauntlet trailer is the Baker Family Band. That is the same Baker family as Sam Baker, a good friend of several VT Wake riders and current roommate of Gordon Harrison, whose cousin Sydney Hobart is one of VT's top girl riders. Small world.
