Bryan Soderlind RLand Wakeskate DVD – The Bryan Soderlind RLand Wakeskate DVD showcases a sport in an area that has been a long time in the making. Over Sixty years ago Dick Pope Sr. moved to Central Florida and began Cypress Gardens on Lake Eloise. He landscaped beautiful gardens on the lake to make a perfect backdrop for his water-ski show. Soon the pictures from Cypress Gardens appeared in newspapers, magazines, motion pictures, and televisions around the world. Central Florida became the ski capital of the world and people relocated to be a part of the fun. Dick held ski tournaments that brought the best international riders into town and once here, many of them decided to stay and those who didn’t went home to spread the word of this Florida Mecca. Sixty years and countless influences later, Cypress Gardens has become the wake capital of the world and home to the movement of wakeskating. Bryan Soderlind’s vision of RLand Wakeskate was shot with a 16MM camera from 1951, giving it an antique and innovative look and feel.
