Show notes
Aaron Grace’s career in wakeboarding had an auspicious start, working as the janitor for Rusty. One day after cleaning toilets, he was invited on the Rusty boat, they saw him ride and the rest is history. Aaron ended up a sponsored rider and had a 24-month pro career before it was time to manage the athletes and eventually the marketing at Liquid Force. I should also mention that he doesn’t hold back with his opinions on the podcast and the “Inappropriate Questions” are some of the best.
