Welcome to the BST Wake Team's official webpage! As our name states, the Wake Team is involved with pretty much any project having to do with water or wakeboarding. The Wake Team is the oldest existing team within the BST Enterprise.

The Wake Team has come up with many project ideas for wakeboard improvement including carbon fiber binding inserts, making a coreless (or almost coreless) wakeboard, building a "flex style" board, building a honeycomb-core wakeboard, and many others. As part of the BST enterprise, our team feels that it can do pretty much anything wake related... if you have an idea, run it by us and we just might be able to make it happen!
