You see them in all of the magazines, appearing in the best videos and standing on top of the podiums all around the world: all of your favourite pros make wakeboarding look pretty fun and way too easy sometimes. Sure these guys have tonnes of talent, but it also helps that they've got their equipment completely dialed in. For this edition of What The Pros Are Rockin we sit down with Liquid Force icon, Shawn Watson, to find out what he likes about his gear.

How does this setup reflect your riding style?
It allows me to get my spin on and land like butta!

What’s the one thing you like the most about your board and bindings?
The board lands really soft and the air cushion in the bindings it makes landings even softer.

Is there anything customized about your setup?

Just the sticker job.

What advice would you give to someone looking for a new board and bindings?
Everyone has different riding styles, so find a board that fits your style. Some people might want a board with continuous rocker or you might want a 3-stage rocker, you might also want a board with screw on fins rather than molded. So choose whatever suits you best.
