About the Tour
It is with the utmost anticipation and excitement that World Water Skiers formally announces the return of the Overall World Tour. The "WWS Overall World Tour" once again brings the battle for the most coveted titles ever bestowed upon an athlete in our sport, namely that of the Overall Tour Champion. As in 2022, these 4 stops, exclusively Overall, will take place across 4 different countries, France, Austria, Canada and the USA. These 4 sites are some of the most renowned lakes around the globe. With each stop awarding equal prize money and points towards the tour rankings, every buoy, every trick, every jump, and every round could determine the course of the entire year. WWS is extremely proud and grateful to again partner with these progressive clubs, sponsors and donors that are willing to invest so much into their community to build a strong foundation that will elevate the sport.

1) Why should you tune in?
If you ask any water ski fan around the globe, they will explain that skiing is truly a hidden gem sport. Slalom skiers slash through the water, projecting walls of spray over 30ft (10 meters) into the air, and then accelerate through the wakes with the same G-forces as a race car driver. Trick skiers twist and turn their bodies as fast and efficiently as they can through two 20 second passes in which they combine 6 flips, multiple spins, and tricks with the rope attached to their foot! Finally, Jump skiers hit a 6ft (180cm) ramp at speeds up to 70mph (113kph) and fly over 200ft (60-70m) through the air before landing back on the flat surface of the water below. Furthermore, with a smaller competitor field within each of the WWS Tour Stops’ finals, you will see all three of these disciplines rapidly over the course of only 3 hours. So, the real question is, why would you not tune in to watch the incredible action this sport and this tour has to offer?2) How can you watch live?
Each tour stop finals will be broadcast by WWS TV so you can catch all the action from anywhere around the world!

3) What happened in 2023?
As we reflect on the electrifying 2023 season, it's impossible not to be swept up in the anticipation for what lies ahead in the 2024 WWS Overall World Tour. Last year was nothing short of spectacular, with jaw-dropping performances, record-breaking feats, and unforgettable moments on the water.Joel Poland emerged as a dominant force, clinching victory with a world-record-breaking performance at the Florida Cup. His unparalleled skill and determination set the stage for an epic showdown in the upcoming season. Alongside him, Louis Duplon-Fribourg's triumphant win at the World Championships and Dorien Llewellyn's return from injury add layers of intrigue and excitement to the mix. With Joel aiming to defend his title, Louis hungry for more success, and Dorien eager to reclaim his throne, the stage is set for a fierce battle among these titans of the sport.
On the women's side, Giannina Bonnemann's undefeated streak in 2023 left fans in awe. However, with Giannina expecting a baby and sitting out the 2024 season, the women's competition is wide open. Rising stars and seasoned veterans alike will be vying for the top spot, promising an unpredictable and thrilling contest.
As we eagerly await the start of the 2024 tour, the anticipation is palpable. With records on the brink of being shattered, rivalries ready to reignite, and a new generation of athletes ready to make their mark, the 2024 WWS Overall World Tour is set to deliver another season of heart-stopping action, jaw-dropping performances, and unforgettable moments on the water. Get ready, fans, because this season promises to be one for the history books.
4) Who's competing?
The world’s best Overall water skiers will be competing against one another in each of the 3 disciplines for the title of best all around skier. The tour will feature an exclusively Overall competitor field, consisting of World Champion skiers such as Joel Poland (GBR), Dorien Llewellyn (CAN), Martin Kolman (CZE), and Tour Champion Giannina Bonnemann (GER). The field will also feature other up and coming talent, as well as accomplished veterans from Germany, France, the United States, and more.5) How does Overall work?
In an Overall event, skiers are scored based on each of their results in the 3 disciplines, Slalom, Trick, and Jump, meaning every buoy, every trick, and every inch/cm could be the difference between 1st or 2nd. In each of the 3 disciplines, the highest scoring skier is given 1000 Overall points, with every other skier’s score consisting of a percentage based on how close their score was to the leader. After all, 3 disciplines have been skied, the athlete with the highest collection of Overall points is the winner.Over the course of each stop of the WWS Tour, the skiers will begin competing in the Preliminary Round, with the top 6 men and top 4 women in the Overall points rankings moving onto the final. Then, in the Final Round, all the finalists will wipe the slate clean and ski the 3 disciplines again, with the event winners being determined by the Overall points accumulation only within the Final Round.
6) Who's the winner?
Each event will consist of a preliminary and final round. The prelims will determine the running order for the finals. The individual event scores of the preliminary round will also count, along with the scores from the finals, towards the individual event bonus. The final round will be the sole determining round for the Overall placements and the tour points for each event.Media Manager
