Bio
If you were to meet Aaron on the street you would never know what kind of competitor he is. His cool vibe off the water is so different than on the water. The drive and passion to succeed at wakeboarding keeps him going. After landing several tricks that very few or no other rider has stomped. His buzz around the world has come full circle legit. The newest member of the 1080 club, Rathy has his goals set high again throughout the winter. To keep riding and progressing.
Oakley’s latest 1242 Productions release. Push Process is in stores now
