This event was previously announced to be the fifth stop of the series, falling over the same weekend as the sixth stop, the Nautique Canadian Wakesurf Championships presented by Yanmar. Together Nautique, Yanmar, and The WWA made the decision to move the event up to the second stop of series falling over August 1st – 2nd providing riders the ability to compete at both the Asian and North American stops. This global wakesurf series is comprised of seven prestigious wakesurf events spanning across three continents and providing innovative formats for competition in fun-filled, family-friendly environments.
