They will race a new Yamaha FZR prepared and tuned by Bill Chapin of R&D. According to R&D the new Yamaha is capable of clocking 84mph in a Pro Stock format… This is getting interesting…

Kommander Team rider Kody Copenhaver will race the Mark Hahn 300 on his SX-R. Cody had a very successful season last year and now he is starting off with a difficult adventure. We wish him Good Luck since 300 would be a tough race for him even he will manage to cover half of those. Note the new Jettrim gear on his SX-R.

Starting January 31st until February 2nd will be the 1st Martinique Offshore Endurance Race, sponsored by Club Med Martinique, IJSBA, Région Martinique, Yamaha Marine Martinique, Tilo Martinique Hotel La Bateliére, Orlane, and La Martinique Fleur Des Caraibes. Tony Vo and Derek Correll will be flying out to not only support the race but to support Team Rider Corey Heimann. It is always an honor and extremely exciting for the Jettribe crew to travel to other countries as a guest, and the First Martinique Jetski Offshore Endurance Race is no exception. Like any lasting relationship it starts with a friendship, good sense of trust, and a similar goal. We’re honored to be meeting up with Alain, Peter de Smet, and the people of Martinique at the world renowned Club Med. If the name Peter de Smet sounds familiar it is because he is organizing the Martinique race and the Jettribe Euro Tour. Be sure to attend both if possible! Martinique is a tropical island where the summer never seems to end; the breeze never stops blowing, tropical trees, fruits, plants, flowers, and tropical forests cover the entire island. It is a wonderful location to hold the race and many experienced international racers will be attending. Hotel Bateliére is where the racers, families, and friends will be staying for the duration of the trip, with a bar nearby with umbrellas available for every drink, plus a comfy bed to crash in. The water is another exquisite reason to be stoked for this race, as it is clear as the eye can see, making it a huge tourist stop. The race will take place January 31st to February 2nd 2014 in Martinique, French Island in the Caribbean Sea. It will be a one-of-a-kind race that will take three days to travel around the island. It may be a little hard to get to, but believe us when we say it will be worth it! See you at the beautiful island of Martinique! Good luck on your travels, be safe on the waters and never get caught without Jettribe Gear! Information below was taken from the official Martinique Jetrace Website.

Huge waves, bigger and better tricks on some of the world’s most powerful standup skis, cold beach weather, and even colder drinks. What could be a better way to let the good times roll and bring in the New Year? The 2014 Thrust Innovations Daytona Freeride down in Daytona, Florida was a blast as always! Nothing could keep the Freeriders or the spectators from the one and only Daytona Freeride, even if it was a bit chilly. The Grand Seas Resort had a spectacular view, ideal staff, and of course a Tiki Bar nearby that also helped warm people up. Riders such as Mark Gomez, Zack Bright, Tanner Thomas, Taylor Curtis, Carter Bracket, Seth Zaluski, and many more great riders put on an amazing show for those lucky enough to catch the event. Whether or not you missed it, rider Seth Zaluski put together a video for ProRider Magazine that gives viewers a great synopsis of what the event was like, including the pronounced show Mark Gomez put on in the Hotel Pool. In case you didn’t know, Nicholas Foederer and his team have been putting this event on for 10 years and Jettribe has been lucky enough to be a part of it for 6 of those years. Nick and his team have astounded riders and spectators alike each year by booking a great hotel next to the beach, having delicious hot food available nearby, and open arms to anyone new to the sport or the event. The Jettribe crew, which consisted of Derek Correll and Jeremy Schendelmayer, did a great job putting the Jettribe booth together and helping people at the event to get gear and stay warm. Derek and Jeremy could not stop talking about the one-of- a- kind weekend, with so many stories to share it made the rest of the Jettribe Crew start to make arrangements for possibly going next year, as should you! Thanks Nick for putting on a great event once again, Thrust Innovations for sponsoring it, and the Grand Seas Resort and the City of Daytona for having such a beautiful location for the Daytona Freeride to keep going. The racing season is slowly getting started so remember to ride safe with Jettribe, the #1 Jetski Racing Gear and Apparel Company out there! Don’t be the only one caught without Jettribe!
