Happy New Year

@jaakerman Johnny, you're a beast! This wake looks insane from the GoPro footage. Just bombing down the Columbia river in a Pavati AL-24 aluminum wakeboat blasting music at concert volumes. #photographer #photography #wakephoto #wakesurf #wakesurfing #wakesurfer #champ #pavati #pavatiwakeboats #wakeboat #boat #portland #al24 #wave #wake #surf #surfphotography #sportsphotography #sportsphotographer #actionphotography #actionphotographer #gopro #goprooftheday #goprohero4black (at Columbia River)

Absolutely my #womancrushwednesday is this one of a kind human being. Inspired and excited that we get to know each other. Not sure what planet you came from but please stay on Earth where we need a lot more people like you. #wcw #wce #bae #amazed #mine #beautiful

Johnny Akerman surfing the enormous wake of a Pavati AL-24 wakeboat in Portland. 4K screengrab from the commercial I shot for Pavati on the Samsung NX1. #pavatiwakeboats #pavati #wakeboat #wakesurfing #wakesurf #prowake #prowakeboarder #wake #al24 #johnakerman #curl #surf #surfing (at Portland, Oregon)

When I said our drummer Jim Sitter "almost" backed his SUV into a trailer hitch... it was like "quantum almost." Typical Fret Drifters stuff. #fretdrifters #thefretdrifters #jimsitter #music #gig #band #bandvan #concert #livemusic #crisisaverted #almost #quantumalmost

Can't remember where in Portland I saw this gem of misinformation from the past. #dapper #gentleman #moustache #singe #whynot #whocares #style #fashion

Still, juuuuuuust another fucking city though, lol. #pdx #portland #portlandia #meh #notbad #notgreateither #oldtown #waterfront #photography #oregon #accessablebigcitytofeelinsignificantinsideof #lotsofbeer #sign (at Burnside Brewing Co)
