Just wondering what mag to subscribe to. Would like get one that covers more than just wakeboarding, like wake skating, suring, boats, gear, etc. Have a subscription to Trans world for snowboarding & its pretty good but didn't know on the wake side.

Alliance Wake and Wakeboarding Mag are the two main ones out there. Both are pretty good. There used to be a few more, but I don't know which are still around since the economy started struggling. It's not like the print media has been doing so hot lately anyway.

alliancewake.com

wakeboardingmag.com

Wakeboarding mag is now Trans Wakeboarding magazine so they are one in the same now. I have a subscription to wakeboarding/trans wakeboarding magazine, and its not bad, it does cover boards, gear, boats, interviews, etc. I also get regular Alliance magazines and they seem pretty close to the same. Problem is, I look at it once and it sits around waiting to be thrown away almost. I can see why print media isnt moving so well, id take electronic copy any day

Visit your local pro shop. I give away all the copies we get of both magazines for free. Pick up a few issues and see which one you like the best. You will see some cross over stuff between both Alliance and WBM but I think they are both worth having.

The mags are a big part of the industry, support it and get both. I receive both and I like both of them. I like the humour in Alliance more though. A subscription is really quite cheap.

Yea, I could get both for a year & if one sucks to me I dont have to renew. I hear you on the 3 hour dealer travel time, Im 1 hour myself. I prefer the mag over the media, just my pick.
