Loudon, TN  | July 8, 2015 – Malibu Boats Inc. is very pleased to announce that OneWater Marine Holdings, which sells under the Singleton Marine Group (SMG) brand, is now the exclusive Malibu and Axis Wake Research dealer for all of Alabama. We are also excited to congratulate OneWater Marine and Rambo Marine. Rambo Marine is becoming part of the OneWater Marine and Malibu families. The two best dealers in the state of Alabama are now one, with five locations, serving every major Alabama lake.

SMG is a top-performing dealer for Malibu and has had customer-service scores in the top 10% since the inception of our partnership. Rambo Marine has been an inboard dealer for over 28 Years with multiple CSI awards and has consistently been listed in the Top 100 Dealers by Boating Magazine.

Malibu CEO Jack Springer says, “We are very excited. Now that Rambo Marine is a part of the Marine Holdings and Malibu family, you have two top dealers with appealing locations partnered to exclusively deliver the best and highest quality tow boat available. It is a tremendous win for customers in Alabama. It gives our customers an incredible choice of locations, and service that’s among the best in the United States. We could not be more pleased and excited about this partnership!”

OneWater Marine Holdings CEO Austin Singleton stated, “In partnership with Malibu, the top-performing towboat company in the world, we are excited to now offer an unrivaled experience for customers across the entire state of Alabama. With the addition of Rambo Marine to our OneWater Marine family of dealerships, the Malibu and Axis ownership experience in Alabama has taken a dramatic leap forward. For more than 25 years I have watched, listened, and learned from Scooter as he’s built his dealership in an adjacent territory to ours. I have admired his approach, appreciated his integrity, and considered him a mentor to me. I’m honored and excited to have him as a part of our team and believe he and his son Bennett, as well as the entire Rambo Marine team, will help OneWater seize the incredible opportunity that lies before us across the entire state of Alabama.”

Rambo Marine founder Scooter Rambo remarked, “We are very excited to join the OneWater Team. This partnership will enable us to offer an additional level of service to our customers never before achievable. It also gives us the opportunity to offer the number one selling inboard boat on the market, Malibu and Axis, at both our Huntsville and Birmingham locations as well as the new location at Smith Lake. On a recent visit to the Malibu/Axis plant, we were amazed at the quality, innovation and pride that goes into every new Malibu/Axis product. It is easy to see why Malibu is number one.”

This new alliance of passionate individuals looks to take Alabama to a new level. Malibu is the number-one watersports towboat in the U.S. and worldwide. SMG was already a top dealer, and the addition of Rambo Marine combines two very well run, family owned businesses into a model with several locations and exceptional customer service.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Supra Boats Pro Wakeboard Tour in Acworth Wraps up with

Harley Clifford winning Men’s Professional Wakeboarding

Keenan Flegel wins Pro Skim and Pro Wakesurf

ATLANTA (June 6, 2015) — The Supra Boats Pro Wakeboard Tour and Pro Wakesurf Tour at Dallas Landing Park on Lake Allatoona opened up the competition day to clear skies, smooth waters and large crowds that lined the beach and course line with more than 175 boats in the flotilla.  World class athletes from more than five countries came to compete for podium spots and the largest purse in tour history.  Australia’s Harley Clifford ultimately won the main event, Men’s Professional Wakeboarding, landing a heelside 900, an indy double tantrum, back mobe 540 and toeside 720.

The titanic wakes of the Supra Boats’ SE550 launched riders into the air, making competition extra intense with the best athletes around the globe continuously turning the heat up.  The Men’s Professional Wakeboarding division held its quarter and semi-finals early in the afternoon, whittling down the 18 riders, to nine and finally to six for the big moment.

Moving on from heat one in the quarter-finals was Phillip Soven (USA), Rusty Malinoski (CDN) and Parker Siegele (AUS).  Heat two rippers were Cory Teunissen (AUS), Mike Dowdy (USA) and Tony Iacconi (AUS).  In the final of three heats, Harley Clifford (AUS), Noah Flegel (USA) and Steel Lafferty (USA) moved on.

Throwing down on the course first was Siegele.  He had an epic pass, but Malinoski and Soven ended up edging him out for a chance at a top three spot.  In heat two of the semi-finals, Noah Flegel and Teunissen moved on, along with Clifford and Dowdy of heat three.

The final heat was fierce and everyone rode their hardest.  Each competitor got two runs, and could only fall once, or they were done.  Harley Clifford sealed the deal with huge tricks earning him a score of 97.00, to edge out Mike Dowdy, with a 95.00.  In third place was Supra Boats team rider, Teunissen, with a score of 90.67.

Clifford said it was one of the toughest wins he’s ever had to pull through.  “The way Dowdy and Cory rode was insane and I didn’t know if I had it in me.  I went for broke and it was either going to be first or last place.”  He added that the day was long, but couldn’t be more stoked for the win.

Pro Skim boarders had one heat of six riders to start the semi-finals off, and ultimately two moved onto the finals.  Keenan Flegel moved into the finals standing in first place with 109.40 points, followed by Aaron Witherell with 92.10 points and Austin Keen with 91.50 points in third.  Final results would leave it as Keenan Flegel in first with 103.90 points, and Aaron Witherell in second with 73.50.

Keenan Flegel said his first run was pretty rough.  “I struggled on the first pass, but my front-side shove it at the end definitely got me into the finals.  The second run went well with the first pass being a stand up.”  He later added his Madonna, and the half and half, with back to back big spins sealed the deal.  A Madonna is where a rider grabs the board and sticks a leg out to the side, while the half and half is two shoves, combined with a floater on top of the wave.

Six Pro Wakesurfers hit the water for the semi-finals in the early morning hours with Keenan Flegel (USA), finishing in first place with 103.00 points, followed by younger brother, Noah Flegel (USA), with 102.10 points and Dallas native, Parker Payne (USA), in third place with 100.10 points.

Only the two Flegels advanced to the finals.   In the end Keenan took first place with 112.40 points, followed by Noah in with 105.10 points.

Keenan ended his second run with a Madonna, just like his Skim final, taking his second podium win of the day.  Keenan finished up the day and said, “It’s really awesome to be here wakesurfing at the pro tour and I’m pumped for both of my wins.”

Lake Allatoona is the second of four stops around the United States for the Supra Boats Pro Wakeboard Tour event series.  The final two stops include California and Wisconsin.

The Supra SE550 is the official tow boat for the elite tour because of its clean, consistent and massive wakes.  The Supra Boats’ wakes are expected to push pros to new levels while preserving strict handling and a balanced ride for the driver and judges in the boat. The 2015 Supra Boats are powered with the high-torque 6.2L Ford Raptor Engine by Indmar.

Tour sponsors include Supra Boats, KIND Snacks, Indmar, Roswell, Boatmate, JL Audio, Wakeboarding Magazine, CWB, Ronix, Contour, Epiphone, Zero Off, Acme Propellers, AO Coolers, PTM Edge, Connect A Dock and Yamaha Generators.
