The Canadian Wakeboard Nationals were held this year on Aug 26-29 at False Creek as part of a production called Wake West. The venue was excellend for the bands, but the water conditions were terrible for riders... lots of backwash from nearby barges and vertical rock walls. Nevertheless, the riders sucked it up and had huge performances. Results can be found here.
The Vancouver Water Ski Club provided the barge as a start dock and volunteers for the entire event.
