The Organizers of the 2010 World Barefoot Water Ski Championships are offering a training opportunity for a video officer (1) from each Confederation.

The organizers will cover all of the Accommodation and meal costs for this person. They will work along with the Video Team and Olaf BŒttcher - the creator of BŒttchersystems. This is the future of video based judging for our sport.

The 2010 World Barefoot Water Ski Championships will take place August 8 - August 15, 2010 near Berlin, Germany.

Please contact your Federation or WBC reps if you are interested in this opportunity.

Richard Gray

Chairman - World Barefoot Council

Heres what we recently found
Full length ropes with take off loops used with clips are not good.. They are hard on the rope.. Hard to get on and off..

2m leader with clip is not an issue on either the tower or SFH.. It isonly used in tricks.. Slalom and tricks the 19.5m rope is threadedthrough the 2m leader making it one 21.5 rope and one stays attached totower, one on SFH.. Anyone wanting low pole gets the one from the towermoved down..

Clips were not deadly weapons.. We even tried them in jump and noissues EXCEPT it broke the rope.. Never came close to judge, timer,video, driver, boat, etc....]]> Sun, 28 Feb 2010 23:13:07 +0000 http://wbcforum.activeboards.net/forum_posts.asp?TID=182&PID=4346#4346 WBC Public Forum : Ashleigh Stebbeings inverted http://wbcforum.activeboards.net/forum_posts.asp?TID=284&PID=4345#4345 Author: JŒ Malenfant

The WBC has approved a trial of 3m leader with lightweight clip for SFH
Please let your WBC reps knop what length you have found to be the best and have you or the skiers found any negative issues with using a light weight metal clip...

The WBC seems to be working hard at making sure they are involved at every level of the sport. There was a barefoot race and figure 8 tournament here in Florida a couple of weekends ago and WBC sponsored the event and provided the boat for the figure 8. David Small came from the losers bracket to win the figure 8 and Team Top Gun which is also sponsored by WBC won the race.

Now they have an annoucement that WBC is sponsoring the 2010 World Barefoot Championships in Germany! Whether it is a local level tournament or a world championship WBC wants to be there and support the barefooting community.

Check out the video on their site www.worldbarefootcenter.com for the all of the information. You will even get to see Swampy in some cool new shades.
