The action started off with a premiere of the Annenberg Apocalyptic Tour video, highlighted by a banging ender section from Ben Horan. After the winners were crowned in each event, the coveted Overall Toe Jam Title was awarded to the well-deserving Reed Hansen.

Just as the checks were handed out and champagne few around the room, the night was capped off with an insane performance from the Supervillans and everyone celebrated another hugely successful Rockstar Byerly Toe Jam.

With the highest number of riders all weekend, the Rail Park portion of the Rockstar Byerly Toe Jam saw nearly 40 riders competing for one of wakeskating’s top honors today at The Projects outside of Orlando, Florida.

After hours of riding behind the Sea-Doo WAKE Edition PWC, the judges had some tough calls to narrow the field down to four. In the four-man final, we saw Reed Hansen, Matt Manzari, Ben Horan and Grant Roberts take to the water, each with a five-minute session and unlimited falls. Hansen was solid all day, throwing multiple flip tricks and solid rail hits like his switch boardslide big spin. Manzari went gonzo with several shove variations off the rails and a huge inside-out varial flip. Horan always bring style to the table, landing his signature kickflip and perfect back lip shove. Roberts put together a long, complete run, with many solid rail hits and a frontside 360 shove.

The results will be announced tonight at the Arnette Awards party in downtown Orlando at The Social. All the awards will be presented as well, including the coveted overall Toe Jam Title.

Head-to-Head Final (winner to be announced Sat.)

Bret Little

25 of the world’s best wakeskaters killed it today behind the Nautique 210 Byerly Icon Edition boat, kicking off day one of the 2011 Rockstar Byerly Toe Jam at The Projects outside of Orlando, Florida.

The four-man head-to-head final consisted of Brian Grubb vs. Stu Shinn and Nick Taylor vs. Reed Hansen. Taylor rode amazing all day with several clean moves like his toeside backside three, but his finals run was not enough to take down Hansen. Grubb also advanced past Shinn, even with Shinn’s hammers like his clean frontside big spin.

The head-to-head final was everything we hoped for — a complete throw-down between the two winningest boat riders in Toe Jam history. Grubb threw down first and Hansen followed with an equally impressive run. The winner will be announced on Saturday evening at 9 p.m. during the Arnette Awards Party in downtown Orlando at The Social.

Until then, we will disclose the two final runs and you can discuss your opinions online at http://www.facebook.com/Toe.Jam.Wake.Event

Scott Byerly was way impressed with what he saw today, “The riding today was on a higher level than I’ve ever seen,” Byerly said. “It’s amazing what these guys are doing out there. They definitely made myself and the Byerly boat proud to host a throwdown like this.”

The founder of the Toe Jam, Scott Byerly is impressed with all the new talent, “More people are entering, with new faces and sick riding,” Byerly said. “We’ve brought it back to The Projects so the vibe that we started with still remains. We want everybody to have a good time and see the best riding, that is what the Toe Jam will always be known for.”

Everyone will celebrate on Saturday night at 9 p.m. at The Social in downtown Orlando for the Arnette Awards Party and the winners will be honored. Riders are encouraged to register now, in order to avoid late fees assessed after 12:01 a.m. on Tuesday Aug. 30.

Normally people only receive gifts for their birthday, but on Wednesday, 4/20, Scott Byerly has a gift for you. For ONE DAY ONLY, you’ll be able to view and download the 2010 Byerly Toe Jam video in its entirety. Catch all the highs and lows of wakeskating’s premiere event through this never-been-seen feature video.

“It’s crazy to see how much stuff went down last year,” Byerly said. “Giving this video out on my birthday is my way of saying thanks for the support and we look forward to seeing a good turnout for the 2011 Toe Jam.”

Scott is also celebrating his birthday with a big announcement. The 8th Annual Toe Jam will be coming back to the The Projects on Aug. 31 – Sept. 3, 2011. This four-day event will focus on a different category each day including the boat, PWC park, winch and System 2.0.

With the sport taking off and progressing like never before, all riders will be on an equal playing field having to qualify for each category. As always, the true Toe Jam champion will be the rider who accumulates the most points overall.

Scott Byerly would like to thank Rockstar Energy Drink, O’Neill, Arnette, Nautiques, Byerly Boards and Nike 6.0. The 2010 Toe Jam video will also be available later this summer on a DVD distributed with the June issue of Alliance Wakeboard.
