Orlando, FL (November 22, 2021) – The World Wake Association (WWA) and Nautique Boat Company are proud to announce the return of the Nautique Wake Series for 2022, with four action-packed event stops. Towed exclusively behind the award-winning Super Air Nautique G23, this series delivers the highest level of wakeboarding competition providing a career-defining platform for athletes to come to showcase progression and define themselves as the sport’s elite. A dedication to rider development and a family-friendly environment has made the Nautique Wake Series home to an international field of athletes competing in all WWA professional and amateur divisions, continuing a tradition that always puts riders first.
“The Nautique Wake Series continues to be the gold standard in wakeboarding event series,” said Nautique president Greg Meloon. “These contests are where the best riders in the world are vying for who will be named the best overall rider behind the award-winning G23. The progression of riding will make 2022 the best series yet as we get to watch and see who captures the coveted overall title.”
