WWA: Amateur Competition Kicks Off Day Two of the Nautique Wake Open Presented by Rockstar
“I’m blessed to be back healthy and riding again,” said Team Nautique Rider Brandon Thomas. “The wake behind the G23 is massive and it felt like I was floating out there. I just went out wanting to show everyone what wakeskating is all about and I’m looking forward to carrying the momentum into the final on Sunday.”
In the Men I Semifinals, Jared Franco (USA) demonstrated his skills riding the wake of the industry-leading G23 to take the top spot. The Men II Semifinals witnessed a solid performance from Corbin Blanton (USA) as he relied on his flashy style to sit atop the scoring sheets.
Some of the day’s best action took place in the Jr. Men (14-18) Semifinals as multiple riders dueled for the opportunity to advance to the Finals. Noah Fedorovich (USA) recorded an impressive variation of tricks in the Boy’s Beginner (10-13) Semifinals.
Dayle Cartwright (USA) faced stiff competition as he emerged victorious in the Veterans (40&Over) Semifinal just ahead of Kevin Michael (USA) in the runner-up position.
The Nautique Wake Open is set to kick off at 8:30AM on Saturday, April 23 for day three of the event, which will include Pro Men’s Quarterfinals, Pro Women’s Semifinals and Amateur Finals.
As the organizer and sanctioning body of the 2016 Nautique Wake Open presented by Rockstar Energy, the World Wakeboard Association would like to thank all of its partners for their support in making the event possible, including Nautique Boat Company and Rockstar Energy Drink.
