Over the decades, we’ve had the honor of hosting esteemed coaches and skiers, igniting fervent discussions about staging a pro water ski extravaganza. Now, the dream becomes a dazzling reality!

In proud collaboration with World Water Skiers and the Overall tour, our inaugural event pledges an electrifying fusion of high-octane action and fierce competition. Not only will athletes be vying for the biggest cash prize of the season, but every maneuver will also be crucial as valuable points are on the line for the tour championship prizes. Witness the planet’s premier overall skiers engage in a battle of skill and precision by day, while the evenings come alive with the breathtaking spectacle of the world’s finest men’s and women’s jump events, guaranteed to leave audiences spellbound with distances of 70 meters plus!
