Some have plenty of passion, its the resources they lack.

Some people have so much passion they will practically single handedly create and promote not only an event, but an entire discipline in order to crown themselves world champion.

Nice try.

There are many people wanting it, that's why it is happening.

Why do we have many disciplines and tours?

Because people are wanting it.

And there are people who just talk, and people who do, to make things happen.

And a competition is not freeride, the best in competition wins.

But thx for your compliment, I got it :thumb:

Great to hear a competition happening not based on the daggling repetative handle pass stuff , the old school tricks are much more entertaining :thumb:

hmmm, if that's all anyone did it'd soon get pretty boring

I like seeing riders who can do a bit of everything - surf, sliders, wakestyle and yes ok a bit of old school now and then :thumb:

sure, but if you want highest level in a comp, you need to separate. Doesn't mean it can't be on the water the same time...but should be done by different riders, who are dedicated.

It will get boring after a while for sure, therefore I would make a rule, you cannot repeat a trick in a elimination ladder.
This way you would need to train many different tricks, then it will be amazing.
Anyway, not a current rule, but at least switch tricks count as the same and don't get extra scoring...they can have that rule at Freestyle, but not for Airstyle, which is about the show and NOT to get boring.
