probably to crown competitors from the world freeride tour or maybe something new and interesting

What's the technical difference between expert surf ski, and pro surf ski? Same with runabout and ski?

And why is there no Novice class surf?

Great... more classes... We have less riders, and we need LESS classes for fuller lines.

I was just excited about the prospect of more surf racing. It's a step in the right direction.

Well the new world tour is only two classes

As it should be.

The rest are single event classes with a broad appeal and it might come down to what classes show the most interest.

I wonder what Junior Ski 10-12 750 Stock is? Maybe just older SJ and Kawis?

I also like some of the exhibition classes like top speed and drag for both ski and runabout. One of these would be a much better transitional show for the crowds say at the WFs than the boring 3D Sea-Doo Bounty Hunt. I would love to see the fastest pwc or some quick drag pwc competition.

Don't get me wrong I'm 200% in support of surf races, that's someof the best racing we can get. but why have a specific class for it? What's the difference between racing in expert ski limited IN THE SURF or racing expert ski surf?

What's the difference, and why the additional class?

And, what about people in Regions that have no surf race opportunities?

Makes me wonder if the WF's are moving to a location that has both flatwater and surf...
