For 2016, Malibu WWA Rider Experience East will host the fifth Malibu WWA Pro Card Qualifier, which qualifies riders for the WWA World Rankings and the right to compete at all WWA professional contests for the 2016 season. Malibu will have a handful of professional athletes in attendance, including Chad Sharpe, Massi Piffaretti, Tarah Mikacich, Amber Smith, and Parker Siegele.
When riders hit the water on July 16, an additional $5,000 in prize money will be up for grabs, as the Wootown Wakefest will host the Wootown Open Division, encouraging the participation of professional and amateur riders.
