>Official Race report of Toshiyuki Ohara

Japanese rider Toshiyuki Ohara participated in the fourth Round of the U.S. ProWatercross Tour in Utah: “I was participated to fourth round of the ProWatercross National Tour at St.George Utah was totally excited. The reason of why I was coming for US is to make setting and practice with ProForce for World Finals. Also joined to the ProWatercross National Tour was part of the practice for us, therefore we didn’t care about what places we will get in all of the motos. There are everything we thought so before the race. I arrived to Lake Havasu City at 18th June and started testing the ProForce. At first, I tried to understand the feeling of ProForce. But I didn’t take time to get used to that ski because the ski was almost perfect setting and quality for all riders. So I tried to make more comfortable (change the length of handle pole, bar, make different shape ride plate) before we leave Lake Havasu. The result in Rd.4 was 1-5-1, and then I took the victory in overall of Pro Ski GP. In Moto#1, I was 2nd in beginning of second lap. The ProForce is very reliable even I chasing the someone every single lap. So I didn’t need to be push hard for catch the front of me. Luckily I became to 1st place in fifth lap, after that I lead away from 2nd place. In Moto#2 and Moto#3 were both of moto I was 1st place from first lap. Then finally I got 43 seconds lead from 2nd place. Honestly, I’m so happy to be 1st place in ProWatercross Tour. I think I could show the high performance of ProForce to the entire world. I really appreciate to Pro Watercraft Racing and Chris Hagest. I can’t wait to world finals and we wanna get victory at there also.”

>Flores raced in Utah

Flores raced in Utah Struggling to keep up with the sport finances Rob Flores managed to attend and race in the fourth Round of ProWatercross Tour in Utah. Talking exclusively in Jetskiworld.gr he mentioned the following: “I only raced the first motos of each class on Friday. I was happy with my speed and stamina considering it was first time on a track since World Finals. The problem was my lower back was locking up from no practice or training so I didn’t want to damage myself and didn’t ride the other motos. However, I was happy. I wanted to gauge my boat and my speed on the track and I was pleased with both. The training part and getting in race shape is the easy part.” The photo was taken at Body Beach last February when Jetskiworld.gr tested Flores skis.

>Kommander reports from Utah

Official Race Report of Kommander from the Round 4 of ProWatercross Tour: Round 4 of the national tour was good but very frustrating at the same time. Moto 1 I was able to get the holeshot and had a strong race going until lappers . When I reached the lappers some did not see us coming but some riders decide to race when they are a lap down. I ended up tangling with lappers that caused me to loose the lead at that point .Moto 2 and 3 we had the same issue with lappers getting the blue flag and not ever moving over during the whole moto but instead racing and taking the main line. We could of had great racing but this ruined the event but until the officials enforce the rules things will not change. Hopefully we won't have issues like this again but who knows. We want good racing to grow the sport and put on a good show for the crowd. There are many good riders and skis and the competition is very good in the USA right now but we need a fair playing field for all riders. Hopefully we will get this again in the future. If we continue like this, riders will end up getting hurt with the on track actions that are currently happening. Photo courtesy: Dustin Motzouris
