Baller MattP Posted November 8, 2015 Baller Share Posted November 8, 2015 The 2015 World Championships are 1 week away. Who are your podium picks? Will we see any big upsets? - Lang was beaten at the US Open. Will she defend her Worlds title? - Jacinta is recovering from Injury, but needs to defend her title. - Regina's 3event game is strong right now after a Overall win at Worlds. - Corey & Smith into 43 in 1 week. - Aliaksei - Set a pending record recently. Will he remain on top? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted November 8, 2015 Administrators Share Posted November 8, 2015 2nd -5th in mens Slalom will be an interesting show.

Baller MattP Posted November 9, 2015 Author Baller Share Posted November 9, 2015 The numbers next to the divisions are the series or grouped skiers based on the ranking list. With 1 being the highest seeded skiers. Though I do not see MS,MJ, WT Finals listed unless they follow their counterparts on the 21st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller AdamCord Posted November 9, 2015 Baller Share Posted November 9, 2015 @MattP yeah was trying to figure out when the finals were for those events, doesn't seem to be on there. Also I assume that's local time which would be central time US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller MattP Posted November 10, 2015 Author Baller Share Posted November 10, 2015 From USAWS: U.S. water ski athlete Freddy Krueger (Winter Garden, Fla.), the four-time defending men's world jumping champion and current world-record holder, has withdrawn from next week’s Water Ski World Championships due to injury. "I have been fighting a sore patella tendon most of the season," Krueger said. "I rest it, I jump, I aggravate it, repeat…I haven’t had enough of a break for it t heal. I don’t want to go into 2016 banged up so I made the tough decision to withdraw and get the rest and rehab I need." "I just don’t feel like I’m really competing at my best when I can’t work in the gym and in training the way I should," Krueger said. "We’ve traced the culprit back to the ankle injuries I had in 2013 and again this year." Krueger said he would still be traveling to the Worlds in support of his wife, Karen Truelove, who will be competing in women's slalom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Andre Posted November 10, 2015 Baller Share Posted November 10, 2015 Mastercraft should grab the opportunity to get some exposure.Seems a lot of the webcast i have watched over the last years were 90% pulled and sponsored by Correct Craft or Malibu at the Malibu open...

Baller MattP Posted November 10, 2015 Author Baller Share Posted November 10, 2015 Andre how about an event on ESPN called the X-Games with wake boarding and ski fly... Broadcast across the country making National news in the USA & Australia. (Sarcasm aside) No monetary benefit for them with a webcast (~300 viewers) and they have almost nothing to do with worlds beside the boats. Its up to the LOC to put all of that together.

Baller MattP Posted November 10, 2015 Author Baller Share Posted November 10, 2015 With Freddy out of Men's Jump will it just be a Dodd show or will Tom, Igor, Bojan and Scot turn up the heat and shake up the podium this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Peebs Posted November 12, 2015 Baller Share Posted November 12, 2015 Lets not forget about Mr. Llewellyn. I have heard the boats are a little soft due to the altitude so the big boys will not have power they have become used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller MattP Posted November 13, 2015 Author Baller Share Posted November 13, 2015 @CaleBurdick sometime before 2003. Highest finish in past few years was 2nd at Malibu this year.
