MasterCraft and Its Dealers Bring Back the MasterCraft Pro Waterski Tour
Vonore, TN --- MasterCraft Boat Company and its dealers recently announced it will bring back the MasterCraft Pro Waterski Tour (PWST) in an ongoing effort to carry professional waterskiing to a wider audience. In this spirit, the MasterCraft PWST will consist of six elite professional water ski events that will be activated all over the country, culminating in the pinnacle of water ski events, the MasterCraft US Open of Waterskiing.
These six stops, which are supported by both MasterCraft and local MasterCraft dealers, will replace the traditional qualifying rounds of the US Open of Waterskiing. In its place will be the MasterCraft PWST with five slalom events, two open men jump events, one open women jump event, one open women’s and men’s trick event and one overall event. The overall event will determine the US Open overall champion while all other events in the series will be considered US Open qualification events.
“The U.S. Open of Waterskiing has long been considered one of the most prestigious tournaments in three-event water skiing,” says Aarne Clow, MasterCraft team and event manager. “As a result we wanted to make that event even stronger and we believe having these events that feed into the US Open is a great way to extend the exhilaration of that experience. And of course activating these stops with our dealers only adds to excitement since they know these markets so well and what it takes to put on a great event.”
