The 58th Water Ski Masters tournament just went down this past Memorial Day Weekend in Pine Mountain Georgia.  In between events, I sat down with the legendary Wade Cox to discuss the event, its long history, as well as some other tidbits.  We did this quick chat during the wakeboard event, so sorry about the boat noise and waves in the background.

Got to sit down with the legendary Wade Cox recently, during a film shoot, and I ended up simply leaving the camera running after getting the real work done.  This was the result....

Coxy reminisces about some of his personal performances and experiences during the Glory years of Pro Skiing.

The FlowPoint Professor is back!  Matteo is on his way back home to Italy, but just before he left, I got to sit down and speak with him about Flow, what it is, what we know, and some things we can do to try to increase our odds of finding the FlowPoint.

In this episode we discuss the concept of "Flow":

-Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi - father of Flow

-9 dimensions of Flow:

  • Challenge-skills balance
  • Action-awareness merging
  • Clear Goals
  • Unambiguous Feedback
  • Concentration on the task at hand
  • Sense of control
  • Loss of self-consciousness
  • Transformation of time
  • Autotelic experience

-How can we increases chances of finding Flow?

-Do you really need Flow to perform?

Tyler Yager is a Pro Skier, with a PB into 41 off....he's also a great friend of mine, someone I've skied with and coached through the years, and he joined me here at The Ridge for a quick sit down...something I'll probably start calling FlowPoint Hangouts.

Enjoy it and let us know what and who you want to hear from next.
