Bonifay Banter — Episode 25 (Rivers Hedrick)
This week, Parks and Shane are joined by Rivers Hedrick, one of the most dominant wakeboarders in the world right now — male or female. Rivers has a lot happening, and this episode dives straight into everything that comes with being at the top of the game.

The crew talks about her brand-new video project Domain, what went into filming and editing it, and the reality of juggling riding, traveling, competing, and creating at the highest level. Rivers also opens up about the closure of her home cable park, Terminus, and how that shift has impacted her routine and mindset.

They also break down her new pro model board, The Current with Liquid Force, including what it was like shaping and dialing it in alongside Jimmy Redman, plus what she looks for in equipment that can keep up with her riding.

This episode covers:
⚡ The process behind Domain
🎥 Filming, editing, and creating at a world-class level
🌊 Life after the closing of Terminus
🏆 Competing, winning, and staying motivated
🛠️ Designing The Current from idea to final product
✈️ The nonstop grind of travel and progression

If you want a real look at what it’s like to be one of the best wakeboarders on the planet right now, this is a must-watch.

Bonifay Banter — Episode 24
This episode is a little different — and one you don’t want to miss.

Uncle Rusty Napier joins his nephews Parks and Shane in the Banter Studio, and from the moment he sits down… he pretty much takes over. And honestly, the boys weren’t about to interrupt — because Rusty came loaded with stories.

Rusty dives deep into his life, including his time serving in Vietnam as a Lieutenant in the Air Force, where he shares firsthand stories about being drafted, following in his father’s footsteps, and multiple moments where he was nearly shot out of the sky. It’s raw, intense, and fascinating — a life experience far removed from anything Parks and Shane have known.

The episode also covers:
✈️ What it was like being drafted and serving in Vietnam
📸 Rusty bringing in old family photos — some dating back to the 1800s
🏌️ Letting the boys know just how bad they are at golf (and that they’ll never beat him)
❤️ Pride, perspective, and family history across generations

This isn’t your typical Bonifay Banter episode — but it’s a powerful one. Full of wild stories, humor, history, and moments that will have you completely locked in.

Tune in, buckle up, and locate the nearest emergency exit above the wings — this one’s a trip.

Parks and Shane are joined by Tyler Bereman, one of the most creative and fearless riders in motocross. The boys sit down with Tyler to break down the insane Island Hopper project he just completed with Red Bull and Apple — a one-of-a-kind mission where Tyler motocrossed across multiple islands, sending massive gaps and pulling off unreal riding in one of the wildest locations imaginable.
Parks and Tyler back from years of crossing paths on Red Bull projects, and Parks even played a small role in helping with the Island Hopper, making this episode extra special. Together, they dive deep into what it really took to bring a project of this size to life.

🟢 Gator trapping stories — including the massive gator skull Reed hauled in and brought as one of the coolest giveaways the podcast has ever had.
🟪 Life at Battle Falls — the wakeskate paradise Reed built from the ground up.
🔵 Trevor making wake history — landing the first double flip off the wake.
🌪️ Hurricane life — what it’s really like dealing with Florida storms year after year.
🦖 Shane’s Jurassic Park tangent — and his confusion about how any of it work and how old were these dinosaurs
…and way more jokes, stories, and deep cuts from decades in the sport.

If you’re into wakeboarding, wakeskating, Florida living, or just outrageous stories from people who’ve lived it all, this is a must-listen.

In Episode 18 of Bonifay Banter, the brothers catch up with longtime friend and wakeboarder / wrestler Wes Brisco. Wes has been part of the scene since the late ’90s — riding, traveling, and living the dream alongside icons like Gator Lutgert and later Scott Byerly. His career is full of wild stories from wakeboarding, traveling on the bus, and riding for some of the coolest brands in the sport.
But what happened after wakeboarding might be the best part of his story. Following in his father’s footsteps — a WWE Hall of Famer — Wes took up the family business and became a professional wrestler. From hanging out with Hulk Hogan as a kid to putting in the work in the ring today, Wes shares what it really takes to make it in pro wrestling.
The crew also chats about surfing in Puerto Rico, life on the road, and what Wes has been up to lately. It’s a wild mix of wakeboarding history, wrestling stories, and good old-fashioned Bonifay banter.
👉 Tune in for epic stories from two worlds — wake and wrestling — with one of the best to ever do both.
