Ambassadors
Meagan has been professionally wakeboarding for nine years. She is always striving to improve her craft not only on the water, but off the water as well. For example, she loves to give back to the watersports community, as well as help grow the sport for women. Meagan is the inspiration and ambassador behind MasterCraft's Let Her Rip campaign. She is also a 7 time World Champion, and 6 time Rider of the Year. When she is not wakeboarding, she loves to spend quality time with friends and family. She also loves to cook, travel, spend time outside, and enjoy other watersports activities like wakesurfing and foiling.
Tyler “Ty” Higham currently lives in Orlando, FL. While his love for the water originated on the West Coast, he has been living away from home to pursue a career in wakeboarding since he was 12. His primary focus as a wake athlete is to be as creative, progressive, and original as possible (both freeriding and in contests). He has always tried to make his tricks unique; in fact, he even builds his contest runs to reflect the diversity and creativity that are at the core of his riding. He hopes to remain top 5 in the world rankings for years to come and his ultimate competitive goal is winning a World Championship.
Awesome, humble and did we mention awesome? Steel is always pushing the limits of what’s possible on the water. The first wakeboarder to land the toeside backside 900, heelside backside 1080 and double mute half cab mobe, Steel is constantly revolutionizing the sport. When he’s not having fun on the water, he’s spending time with his family and practicing his faith.
Ashley started wakesurfing when she was 15 years old. She was actually very afraid of the water as a kid and wakesurfing allowed her to conquer that fear. Once she dropped the rope for the first time, she was hooked. Ashley started competing one year later and since then has won an astounding 10 USA National titles and 7 World Championship titles. While her achievements within the competitive wakesurfing realm are unmatched, she also loves freeriding and is intently focused on her style, amplitude, and progressing the sport. When Ashley isn’t wakesurfing, she enjoys yoga, cooking, traveling, hiking, ocean surfing, snowboarding, working out, hanging out with friends and family, and just about anything outdoors! Also, she is obsessed with her Siberian Husky named Bailey.
In 2023, MasterCraft teamed up with Ashley to launch the Ashley Kidd Edition XT23. Packed with exclusive features and fit for a world champion, this model was made for those looking to make a statement out on the water.

From Savannah, GA to the world's most virally shared action sports athlete. In 2013, Austin Keen won the World Championship Tour of Skimboarding and in 2016 he won the 40th Annual World Championship of Skimboarding in Laguna Beach. In 2015 he expanded his talents into a new sport – Wakesurfing. With creativity and innovation, AK has created dozens of viral videos and shared his love of wake surfing with the world in partnership with the top wake boat manufacturer Mastercraft. AK continues to push the limits of wake, and spread the love through his latest YouTube Series - 'Celebrity Surf Series'.
Harley grew up water skiing with his brothers in Newcastle, Australia. The first time his dad brought a wakeboard on the boat, he was hooked. By 15, Harley was already competing in the Pro Division. His list of accomplishments continues to grow, including 8 World Titles, 5 Overall Pro Tour wins, an XGames Gold Medal, and more. When he’s not wakeboarding, you can find Harley surfing, skateboarding, snowboarding, and spending time with his family.
Parks Bonifay (PB) is widely regarded as the most recognizable and influential watersports athlete of all time. His path to iconic status started early; in 1982, Parks set a Guinness World Record for being the youngest water skier ever. He was just 6 months and 29 days old! Parks eventually transitioned from water skiing to wakeboarding and that’s when his legendary story truly unfolded.
During his illustrious career, Parks won multiple X Games Gold Medals, was a 5-time MasterCraft Pro Tour Champion, and also landed the first 1080 on a wakeboard (switch toeside). Parks laid the foundation for wakeboarding’s progression through his original style and a willingness to push the limit at all costs. Put simply, the sport would not be where it is today without his influence. In addition to all the previously mentioned accomplishments, Parks is a barefoot and bellyflop extraordinaire!
Freddie was born into a water skiing family in London, England, spending every weekend at the lake. Before too long he realized that this was what he wanted to do in life; the only issue was getting good enough for that to be possible. Following a youth spent intensely training and competing, Freddie moved to the US at age 23 to pursue his dream, a month after winning his first World Championship medal. Since then, Freddie has won a World Championship and the US Masters amongst others ranked World #1 on a few occasions and joined the Mastercraft family. The dream is still on.
