Review System
Just wanted to give Wake Thoughts readers a head up that we'll be releasing a new product review/guide system later this week. Just another addition to the site! Wakeboarder.com is going big this year...hope you enjoy the ride.

WakeLeague
EuroWake.com has started up a wakeboarding fantasy league called the WakeLeague where you pick your team for this year's tour and you can win prizes from Buywake.com.
A pretty cool idea, one we thought about doing a long time ago but I was too lazy to program it. EuroWake did a great job! I've created a subleague for Wakeboarder.com members to compete against each other. If you want to join, go to the link above and click to join a subleague, then enter this code: 7X7UJY1fZKrX91Z9.
Relentless
I just posted a press release from Cadmium about the cancelling of Liquid Force's team video Relenteless. That's too bad, but not unexpected after the recent closure of Liquid Force.
The good news is that the footage will show up in Cadmium's upcoming release METRONOME. What's also good news is the quote from Don Wallace of Liquid Force in the review saying they're still working on putting it all back together with new owners. That's a good sign for the sport if they can come back successfully.

Media Center
Okay, we're launching a major new feature of the site in the Wakeboarder.com Media Center. We're going to give Wake Thoughts readers a sneak peek and let you get using it while we finalize tweaking some things with it.
The Media Center allows users to upload and store their own pictures and video clips in member galleries, and also contribute pictures and videos to some set categories. Naturally, everyone can browse and look at these pictures and videos.
Here are some features of it:
- Upload your pictures and videos
- Photos can be rated
- You can send e-cards of photos
- Comments can be added to photos and videos
- You can select pictures to have your own calendar printed (does cost money for the calendar)
- Uses the same login as your forum login
- Comments and image/video uploads count on your forum post count
- You can create your own favorites gallery
Okay, so, to check it out and get going, here it is:
