IT’S A CLEAN SWEEP FOR WORLD CUP ATHLETES

ON EVE OF KOREA WORLD CUP STOP THIS COMING WEEKEND

Athletes from 20 Countries competed at the Europe Africa Waterski Championships (EA) last weekend at Thorpe Park in London, England. Organised by British Waterski & Wakeboard it is egarded as one of the toughest events of all due to the extremely high standard of the region’s athletes. Winning an EA Medal is a major achievement.

Every Gold Medal for both Men and Women was won by a World Cup athlete !  This will add even more to the challenge facing these busy athletes as they now take their flights to ChunCheon City in South Korea for the 30th World Cup Stop and the last of the 2010 season. The Jump and Shortboard / Trick athletes will join the World’s top Wakeboard Riders and 13,000 athletes competing in the inaugural World Leisure Games.
