"The watersports industry lost an icon of the highest magnitude on October 21, 2012 when waterski and wakeboard legendary designer Herb O’Brien died near his home at Radar Lake in Washington. Herb was a huge figure in the watersports industry. Thousands were touched by his life and his work. He first started O’Brien Water Skis in the early 60s with his revolutionary concave ski design – an industry first. Armed with his new design, Herb soared through the competitive skier ranks propelling O’Brien to become a dominant ski brand, which at one point was one of the Top 50 most well-recognized brands in the world. In 1981, Herb founded HO Skis and in the early 90s he started Hyperlite – two brands that became the industry’s market share leader based on his revolutionary designs and creative manufacturing techniques. In 2006, Herb and fellow team members launched Square One Distribution, producers of Ronix Wakeboards and Radar Water Skis based in Issaquah, Washington."
