Frenchman Jean-Baptiste Botti put an outstanding performance in Guadeloupe demonstrating at its best his unique ability to tackle the waves and ride like no one else under those conditions. Having won Pro Runabout Open at the World Finals and being so close to win King’s Cup and mastering Mark Hahn 300 in Havasu shows that Botti is in a class of his own this year. He was racing on race boat prepared by Team Pastorello and his Kawasaki Ultra 310R had no issues. Medori and Tarzia filled the rest of the podium a fact that shows that French riders were the masters of KaruJet this year. USA rider Craig Warner experienced some mechanical issues same as Canadian Mike Klippenstein. Photo courtesy: Jet Net Alain Tarrago

It is the first stop of the IFWA World Tour and Mark Gomez had an awesome opportunity to fight with the best freeriders in the world. He put it in his own words “Fought my way to the semi final and had an incredible heat vs Pierre Maxient of MX100factory. He pulled out 3 superflips at the very end to pull the tally in his favor which I completely give to him for sheer respect of riding ability in such small surf. I then had the battle of Mexico against my RRP team mate Abraham for 3rd and 4th. I have never felt more physically and mentally exhausted in my life than in that heat but managed to still come out with a 3rd place finish overall in the first round of the IFWA tour. I can’t thank my family, sponsors, and mostly @bdayman enough for helping me out with a ski to ride as well as being an absolute legend through out making it all possible for me. It’s time to go celebrate. I'll have more photos later.. Thanks again to my great sponsors and everyone supporting me this first tour stop in Australia I'll never forget.”
