2nd annual US Wakeski Open

Last September the inaugural Wakeski Open was held at OWC and ever since the athletes have been anxiously awaiting their next shot at glory. More than glory, most of the riders have just been looking forward to gathering with fellow Wakeskiers for a fun event where they can showcase their talents on the water.

Set your Calendars for September 4th and be at OWC to compete with or watch the best Wakeskiers in the world! Since the inaugural event, we’ve already learned that new tricks will be on display at this season’s Wakeski Open.

Double Gainers are now in the mix for Justin Pruse. Defending Champion Chad Buechler has been oversees quite a bit and in the Midwest, rumor is he’s been training underground to defend his title. We can only assume that Ryan Jones will be going bigger this year and we’re excited to see what he’s bringing to the wake and the cable. Dave Vogt suffered a knee injury earlier in the season, slalom skiing we heard, but we’ll hope he and his stylish backside 180s are in the mix.

The Wakeski Open is brought to you by HO Wakeskis and Stereo Wakeskis! Help us spread the word and let’s make the Second Annual Wakeski Open a great event. For sponsorship opportunities or to enter the event please email, Greg Nelson @ nelson@hosports.com!

Get ready to compete behind the boat or on the cable. Stay tuned for more details on entry guidelines, entry fees and the cash purse. Spread the word Wakeskiers and make this season’s Open bigger and better than last years’!

On The Road

Last weekend we left Norway once again to travel over the European continent. The final destination of the trip is Turncable, Thannhausen where the first wakeski competition in Europe, Stereo European Wakeski Open, is going to take place July 31st. This week we are visiting several cable parks together with German Stereo Team rider Chris Böttcher. This is the second demo tour in Germany this year and with each cable visit we are introducing new people to Stereo Skis and the joy of wakeskiing.

If you want to meet us follow our blog and our Facebook group to see the schedule for each day.
