2007 Pro Wakeboarding Tour (PTW) #1 Dates: 5/18 - 5/20 Location: Acworth, GA Official Site: http://surfesa.org/midatlantic/ Sport: Wakeboarding Details: The 2007 Pro Wakeboard Tour (PWT) will kick off outside Atlanta, Georgia at the Dallas Landing Park on Lake Allatoona in Acworth, GA. Danny Harf steps up to defend his 2006 title. Harf one of wakeboarding's top athletes who is a four-time X Games champion and has won two PWT national championships. 2007 is the 16th season for the MasterCraft Pro Tour which makes stops in five cities across the United States and Canada. The format for 2007 will be similar to last year's head-to-head bracketed format, which both fans and riders liked. One format change we'll see is that all 40 riders will first compete in a qualifier before the winners are placed in a 16-rider head-to-head format where they are ranked 1 through 16. From that bracket, single-elimination head-to-head match-ups bring the field down to a round of eight, then a round of four, then a match-up between the two surviving riders. In addition to Harf other top PWT stars include Tino Santori, Phillip Soven, Andrew Adkison and Rusty Malinoski. If they stay healthy all have a shot at the 2007 title. Sanori has won King of Wake World Cup, Adkison is a two-time world champion, Soven is a X-Games winner and Malinoski was in the hunt for both Tour and World Cup seas titles. The Pro Men's division and Rip It JX Series Championship for junior wakeboarders will be featured at all five events on the Pro Wakeboard Tour in 2007. The Pro Women's division will be featured in two events, the season-opening event in Atlanta and the Pro Tour's season finale at the Portland event. The official magazine of the MasterCraft Pro Wakeboard Tour is Wake Boarding. The Pro Tour also has the support of the following sponsors: U.S. Air Force, Rip It, Indmar, Sea Doo, Verizon Wireless, Hyperlite Wakeboards, Billabong, Oakley, Reef, Gator Boards, CWB, Liquid Force, G-3, Epiphone, Wakeworld.com and Wakeboarder.com.
