U.S. WAKEBOARD TEAM
From the list of USA entrants, USA Wakeboard will create the official U.S. Wakeboard Team. Team member selection will be based on results from any and all wakeboard events conducted during the past two years.  Independents are also eligible to participate in the IWWF World Wakeboard Championships.

USA Wakeboard is working to provide a modest amount of financial support for team members.

The U.S. Wakeboard Team will be comprised of 10 riders of which the top 8 scores will count toward the team championship.  Those ten riders will be selected within the above divisions that will be competed. An ideal team would have riders for every division of competition. Alternates will be selected from the independent riders.
