Check out some of the accomplishments from some of Dave's Students
I have been riding with Dave since I was 14 years old, there is no one in the world that can teach the way he does. His ability to quickly and clearly explain what to do and how to accomplish the goals it truly what makes Dave the best coach ever! After riding on the PWT since 1993 this season with Dave's help I was able to get back into Sundays' final rounds and I have been riding my personal bests despite have 7 knee surgery's over the years. With the confidence Dave instills in me each time I ride, I really feel even more comfortable on the water than ever!!

Hi my name is James Hindes, i'm 18 and from Fremont, MI. This season I spent 3 months of training down at Dave Briscoe's wakeboard school to get me ready for the 2007 Pro Wakeboard Tour. I learned so much during the three months that I was staying down in FL. right at dave's boarding house. Not only did I learn a handful of new tricks, Dave also helped me put my runs together, help me get ready incase weather came up during a tournament, If I had a fall in the run he would explain good strategy and many other helpful tips. I finished up 7th overall at the 5th and final stop at the PWT. I competed in Junior Men's division. I even competed in the Pro Division at a couple tournaments and placed on the top half of the competition. It is so easy to learn from such a great wakebaord coach like Dave and He makes it fun the whole time your there.

Hello I am Bryan Hutton. I completed my first year on the pro tour and finished 14th. I also stuck the first heel nine in contest this year. I have been riding with Dave Briscoe for about 3 years now. When I first started riding with Dave I wasn't a very good wakeboarder. I could hit a 7 every now and then, and maybe, if the wake gods were happy, I could hit a crowmobe. Three years later I have 5 different sevens 3 different nine hundreds and many mobes. I feel I was able to achieve this by working three to four days a week with Dave and really training hard. Dave will take your riding, whatever level you are at, and take you to levels you would never have thought you could be.
