Malibu Boats "Broad" Trip July 31 - August 2

Malibu Boats Team and Event Director, Lani Farmer and Malibu Boats Marketing Manager, Amy Mauzy, are leaving their factory posts in California to travel to Wake Jam in Portland and then to the Malibu Pro Team Challenge Event in Seattle this weekend (July 31 - August 2). Two ladies having fun and representing the Malibu Family in the Northwest. That's why they named it the "Malibu Broad Trip". They'll be tweeting, facebooking, blogging, flickring and vlogging the whole time. Whether they're boarding the plane, meeting boat owners, talking to pro athletes before their runs or chillaxing at the after parties, they'll be posting their experiences online. Stay tuned!!! With these two Malibu Boats peeps out and about we're guaranteed to hear and see some funny moments.

Oh and if you want to make any special requests while the Malibu "Broads" are on their trip leave a comment on this blog post or tweet that information to them on Twitter @malibuboats. Got a question for a specific rider or want them to capture a special photo or video. Just let them know.

Northwest Riders' Brandon Robbins Miracle Man

A dear friend of Malibu Boats was injured in a motorcycle accident on the 4th of July. Brandon Robbins, a Northwest Riders and Malibu through and through, was seriously injured earlier this month and Malibu Family has been praying for his recovery. Well those prays are being answered.

Brnadon's close friend Zack Clark has been keeping us all updated on Brandon's progress. Zack posted the Miracle Man article on the WakeboardNorthwest.com blog the day he went to see Brandon for the first time since the accident.

He was super alert and his attitude was amazing. Positive, smiling and laughing at times, and the same old B-Rob we know and love. He may even be released much sooner than expected. That’s not to say he doesn't still have a long recovery ahead…but knowing him he will turn long into much shorter than expected. Brandon did end up having his right foot amputated. This means he has some learning coming up with a new prosthetic. I know he will be back on the water and the mountain in no time as he told me just that! Please keep praying for his healing and recovery.

Brandon will have medical costs through out his recovery process and Malibu Boats Dealer Bakes Marine has setup a donation fund to help. If you would like to donate to the fund, please visit www.bakesmarine.com/Brandon.

Please keep praying for Brandon's continued healing.

Malibu boats is pulling for you, Brandon! Take care!
