On most websites this page gives you a couple
of paragraphs on how the company meets the dictionary definition of
a great dealership. Though we could do this, I felt that it
would be better to tell you about us, who we are, and what we do.
Too often individuals walk into a dealership to be greeted by a
salesperson with no experience and a complete lack of understanding
about the industry. You will not find this at M&M Watersports.
We are the oldest standing Centurion dealership in the world, the
recipient of the 2007 Dealer of the Year Award, and the recipient of
the 5-Star Service Rating Award for the 5th year in a row. If
you want to know why we are the #1 Centurion dealership worldwide,
then I suggest you get to know our team. |

Riding Stance: Goofy.
Favorite Boat: Enzo SV230 w/ the Surf Right System.
Favorite Watersport: I love skiing, but I seem to be
spending a lot of time on a surfboard now.
Greatest Watersports Accomplishment: Probably finishing
in the top 10 in the Western Region Barefoot tournament, and also
running a boat dealership for almost 20 years.
If You Didn't Own a Boat Dealership What Would You Do:
I'm not quite sure, but it would probably have something to do with
the outdoors; I just don't think I could have a desk job. |

Favorite Lake: Lake Powell with
my friends and family.
Best Part of Running a Business: I would have to say being
able to meet lots of great people. We met many of our very good
friends because of our business.
Worst Part of Running a Business: It makes me feel old
to think we've been in business for almost 20 years. |

Favorite Food: Sushi, with lots
of wasabi.
Favorite Centurion Innovation: The Switchblade; I'd rather
have one on my boat than a tower.
Greatest Watersports Accomplishment: Finishing 3rd in
the National Barefoot Championships. I would also add my first
time landing a toeside wake jump on a wakeboard - that was awesome!
Favorite Trick: Wakeboarding - anything with a tailgrab,
wakesurfing - backside 360. |

ADAM SMITH -
SALES MANAGER |

 |
Favorite Watersport: Wakesurfing,
without a doubt.
Greatest Watersports Accomplishment: Taking 3rd place in
the amateur division at the World Wakesurfing Championships.
Funnest Wakesurfing Trick: I recently got down 180
pop-shuvits, so I would have to say those.
Best Place to Ride: Is there an answer to this question
besides Lake Powell? |

Favorite Boat: Enzo SV240; it's big, roomy, has
tons of storage and handles amazingly.
Favorite Centurion Feature: Their top deck construction
that allows for huge storage compartments, snap out carpet and super
rigid structure - you really notice these things when you are
working in these boats all the time. I would also add the SwitchBlade - it is one of the best examples of superior engineering
on any boat out there. Period.
Favorite Vacation Spot: That's a secret. If I told
you, I'd have to kill you. |

Do You Really Spell Your Name Jeph?:
Not really, it's something I picked up a long time ago and started
just spelling it that way. It's different, and I think it's
kind of cool.
Favorite Boat: Enzo SV230 - It is the perfect size boat
for me.
Watersports Experience: I was a wakeboard camp instructor
for a few years and also rode on the Arizona State University
Wakeboard Team. I started working at M&M a few years after I
moved up here to finish college.
What Have You Been Riding Recently?: I like to mix it
up between wakeboarding and wakesurfing. The Drew Danielo pro
model wakesurf board is absolutely amazing! |

GRADY WROBLEWSKI - SALES ASSOCIATE |
|
 |
Favorite Centurion Innovation:
Sideswipe Exhaust; it sounds bad to the bone, and I don't feel like I
am sitting in my garage with the car running while wakesurfing.
Favorite Thing to do on the Lake: I used to love ripping
it on a wakeboard, but wakesurfing is about the only thing I ever do
anymore.
Best Lake Around: Are you kidding me? Lake Powell. |

TRAVIS MITTANCK -
ORDERS MANAGER |
|
 |
Favorite Watersport(s):
Wakeboarding, wakesurfing and watching people wreck wakeskiing.
Riding Stance: Goofy.
Favorite Boat: Enzo SV240, fully weighted w/ a SwitchBlade

MCKAY MANN - PRO SHOP SALES |
|
 |
Riding Stance: Left Foot Forward.
Favorite Non-watersports Activity: Playing guitar, singing
and just about anything else dealing with music.
Best Wakesurfing Moment: Getting run over by a tube while
doing some filming. It really hurt, but makes for a good story,
and I can laugh at it now.
Favorite Centurion Feature: The SwitchBlade; it cleans up
both sides of the wave for wakesurfing, no matter what kind of prop
rotation you have. |

Watersports Experience: Uhhh... Wow... Let's see.
I was a coach for the World Wakeboard Center, coach at the Projects
Wakeboard Camp, Achieved the "Every Month on the Water"
certification at Jordanelle Reservoir, Semi-pro Regional Team Rider
for Liquid Force, won a few wakeboard competitions both locally and
nationally, and I have the largest skiboard/skurfer/wakeboard movie
collection in... well... I know the state but possibly bigger -
maybe the whole country. I have over 100, let's just say that.
Umm... that's impressive... I guess: Yup, I am a diagnosed
raging wakeaholic.
Funnest Wakeboard Trick: Pretend to be Peter Pan while
riding. |
