ChopShop took a trip to Fort Worth with the MasterCraft Pro Wakeboard Tour. This is episode 3 of the 9 episode series on FUEL TV. The series documents the world’s most prestigious wakeboarding tour, the King of Wake. With stops throughout the country, each episode brings you the best action from the who’s who in wakeboarding. The World Cup Series consists of the five stops of the MasterCraft Pro Wakeboard Tour, the Air Nautique Wake Games, the WWA National Championships, and the WWA World Championships. ChopShop is producing and posting the series in HD and some of the first episodes are already airing on Fuel TV.

The series is exciting because while the show compromises nothing, each episode demonstrates how sponsors can be seamlessly and effectively integrated into the program with vignettes that are dedicated to a sponsor’s interests. The piece on Oakley in the Fort Worth show is a great example of this integration.
