Thanks to everyone who came out and participated or cheered on the competitors August 20th - 22nd in Abbotsford at the 2021 Waterski Provincials. Once again we had a great showing from the VWSC: from our youngest competitors in the Boys U10 category (Ben Leng and Noah Jefferson) all the way through to Doug Brain in the Mens 8 category (featured in the photo), for a total of 12 participants from our club!
It was a little bit cold and windy on Friday for the Trick and Jump competitions but everyone did well. Saturday was a great day for Slalom and Money Jump! We had 5 participants in the Money Jump: Nathaniel Jefferson landed a 102 ft jump to put his team in 2nd place with each team member winning $200; Kaden Scott landed an impressive 114 ft jump (also a tournament PB) putting his team in 4th place along with Jacob Taylor and Johnny Hayward all earning $100, while Cole Webb (aka Patterson)’s team came in 5th place earning $50 each! Such a fun way to learn to jump, have some fun and earn some spending money.
