Raequel Hoffman Stomps a 720 - 2nd Woman in the World
Posted on Monday, August 13th, 2007 by Bryan Myss | Posted under General, Riders
Raequel Hoffman is now the 2nd woman in the World (Amber Wing from Australia was the first) to land a 720 and have it captured on video. The WakeboardNorthwest staff and other Northwest Riders have had the privilege of getting to know the Hoffman sisters and watching them ride first hand. Raequel and her sister Shawna are truly pushing the women’s side of Wakeboarding. Both competed on the Pro-Tour this year, had video sections in the Chick Flick, and continue to dominate local contests around the region.
Congratulations Raequel from all the WakeboardNorthwest Staff and Northwest Riders. We are very proud you.

To see more of the girls in action, pick up a copy of WIT productions “The Arrival” I think Spencer Norris got some footage of Raequel’s Whirly & Moby Dick & Shawna’s Tooties Roll. I know, shamless plug……..

I was out on a lake with my son, he is eight. He is trying backrolls. Raequel was at the lake doing a photo shoot for Epic Boats. Raequel and her sister Shawna were very nice, came in to my boat and give my son some pointer. Very nice girls. I hope the best for them.

Robert - The Hoffman Sisters are like that all the time. That is why we continue to cover and support them. They remain to be humble even as they grow in the sport with their respective careers.
Shawna WON World’s last weekend for Jr Women’s.
