The cash prize money of 30.000 US dollars is a temptation, a true challenge especially nowadays that things are getting tougher and tougher. The last time that Farthing was spotted at the World Finals practicing on a Ski was back in 2007 when he was ridding a S4 with a 950 Miller engine in it. This year Dustin decided to take the challenge of the prize money and at the moment he is practicing hard on his SX-R.

Junior Star Program was initially started by the Hagest brothers and especially Chris was devoted a lot into this project. To help and give to young riders the basics and what is needed to get in to personal watercraft racing. It is true that the sport needs new blood and only the ones that know what is needed, they can actually dictated those kids. Though, Chris a lot of responsibilities to his main business, Low and Mean, therefore he was looking for a while for someone to support this idea. Nedra Atwood is well known by every single racer who visited Havasu or the World Finals. According to Chris Nedra who is devoted on supporting the sport she will carry on this project. We wish her best of luck on her new responsibilities.

Kommander Ind. Kawasaki 1200SXR and Tuf Stands are joining their efforts and they will share the same booth at the Performance Alley during the World Finals. See both the Kommander Industries skis and the TUF stands at their Booth at the 2011 IJSBA World Finals. Do not miss it.

Deven Farthing son of Dustin took part on his first ever Ski race on a stock SX-R at the age of seven. Congratulations to Mikey Young (race organizer) and to Rob Greenwald who lent the Ski to Deven. Take a closer look to Deven’s riding style. If he carries on practicing he will get to podium very soon. Like father like son. Take care of him Dustin... Photo courtesy Ronny McHennry.
