Jet Jump Extreme And 1st IFWA Tour Stop

Zack Bright here. going to try to give a writeup about my recent trip to France and theexperiences that followed.

June 4-5 marked the 1st stop of the IFWA WorldTour and also the French Championship “Jet JumpExtreme”. The contests were held in Montalivet, France in a small seasonal town known for theregreat wine vineyards and nudist camps. A verybeautiful and quiet county town that was gearedand ready for some serious aerial action and surfriding from some of the top riders in the world, likePierre Maixent of France, Ross Champion of USA,Maxime Baroero or France, Marc Sickerling ofGermany, Federico Bufacchi of Italy, Jerry Jones ofUSA, Bruno Jacob of Brazil, Graham Reid of UK, Josh Fireman of UK, Eric Forney of Franceand myself, Zach Bright. just to name a few.

My trip started out by me mentally figuring out whether this would be my first year going to do thefull Pro IFWA tour. With some new tricks in my bag, I decided to set out to rent a ski for the contestin France, since shipping my Rickter was not cost effective to me. I decided to contact Marc Sickerling,a well respected multi champion ride from Germany, to see if he had any leads on an availableSuperjet, since I was sure a Rickter would be to tough to locate. Marc explained that Martin Schaubhad a Superjet I could possible use, but then suggested that I may be able to ride the new Light-Weight Revolution hull, the catch was, I would have to ship my engine and pump to supply the power. Continued...

Marc sent me to Norbert Weber, the owner of Light-Weight.de and creator of theRevolution Hull, to figure out the details on renting the hull. Norbert surprised me with the option of riding the first fiberglass version of the Revolution hull,with a MSR ported 701 power plant, for the same price as just a Revolution hull.That made this trip possible for me financially so i didn't have to send mydriveline, let alone having the opportunity to ride such an incredible ski.

I realized soon, that this event wasn’t just going to be just another event. I was given a very big opportunity to showcase the abilities of the Light-Weight Revolution hull, along side withRoss Champion, who was riding an all carbon-fiber Revolution as well. So I set off from theLAX airport to be greeted by Royer Cyril in Bordeaux, France. Once I arrived we made a quickstop at Jac Mouazan’s shop then set off for a few hour drive through the wine country ofMontalivet, to reach the camp site where all the freeriders were staying . I was greeted byFederico Bufacchi, Pierre Maixent and Graham Reid who i hadn’t seen in a long time. I got settledin the trailer that I shared with Ross Champion, Jerry Jones, and Carla Carpenter.

The next morning Ross, Marc and I set off to test and practice on our new Revolution skis.Over the course of 3 days, I adjusted to the new hull and felt very comfortable and confidentin its handling capabilities pretty fast. I then proceeded to get tricks like, Madonna flips, pointback barrel rolls and super/indian air flips. Unfortunately, I came out of the foothold on one particular backflip and landed on my hip on the RRP pole base on the bow of the ski from about 10 feet up. This left me witha black bruised hip. I also severely bruised my heal from a flat landed backflip which caused me to take a critical day off of training before the event.

Marc and Ross were also riding very well. Marc had not ridden surf since the 2010 Blowsion Surf Slam, he continued to do most of his tricks such as barrel roll re-entrys like he neverstepped off his ski. He also, along side Alexander Jarc of Germany, tried and successfully completed superman backflips for the first time. Ross, surf riding like I had never seen in my life, had a look in his eye like he was ready to dominate, thanks to his new Light Weight hull and MSR engine. the guy was on fire!


The big day was now upon us where we were greeted with sunny skies and some of the betterwaves of the event. The day started a bit different for Jerry Jones as he discovered his SuperJethe had rented from the UK’s finest, Stephen Foot, had a hole in the bottom of his hull underthe engines cases. They had to proceed in pulling the engine to patch the hole with fiberglass.So the smell of resin was in the air while every one geared up and mentally prepared.

The heats from the first round to the final were single elimination rounds. My first round washead to head with Christophe Picca of France. I was able to take the win and advance onto mynext round with Bruno Jacob. Ross and Marc were also successful in winning their rounds, Rossrode against the feared and dominate Federico Bufacchi and came out on top which is alwaysstressful for Ross who says he gets the most nervous against him. Continued...

Saturday soon arrived, and since I was not seated in a top eight position from last years IFWA tour, I had to qualify through the French Championship where the top eight would go on to the final on sunday. The French Championship was not judged head to head, even thoughyou rode along side another rider. Your score was judged by your two top scores out of threerounds, which made for much less stressful competition. A few of the IFWA top eight thatwere already seated for Sunday, also rode in the French Championship such as, Pierre Maixent,Federico Bufacchi and Maxime Baroero. Unfortunately on Max’s first heat on his DASA poweredRickter XFS, he over rotated a no-handed barrel roll and he sprained his ankle to where he couldno longer compete through the weekend.. Bufacchi, as usual, was going incredibly huge wherehe cracked off a big double barrel roll attempt on his first round to set the bar pretty high.Unfortunately he had mechanical issues his second heat and couldn’t proceed to ride his thirdheat. Pierre Maixent paved the road on what the rest of the contest would be like, withuntouchable amplitude in his tricks and incredible sound, since his Rickter FR-2 was runningDASA power with a Power Factor Pipe. He was running the power of a flatwater ski out in thesurf. The waves were small and I fought hard through all three rounds to end up with a secondplace finish in the French Championships which qualified me in a very good position for thefinal rounds the next day.

As the second rounds began, I sat in the tray of my Light-Weight with my headphones blasting Dustep, getting in the zone, I looked at the changing tides and small inconsistent wave and reflected on my loss 5 months ago to Bruno at the Peruvian Freeride Championship by under half a point. I knew this round was not going to be easy. The ride seemed to begoing fairly well and as I came surf riding down the face of a wave I looked up and saw Bruno heading south in front of me, but then with about 20 ft. between us decided to turn hisski directly at me. I turned my ski to the right and Bruno turned his ski to his left. I turned my ski to the left and Bruno turned his ski to his right. With no other choice, I crouched into

So I was up to ride for 3rd place in the contest against Marc Sickerling. At this point the stresscame right back. Haha. Marc is a very serious rider and since earlier confusing myself on the wayrounds were seated, I believed I was going against Marc on the first round, where I was terrifiedof being eliminated. Then, having to ride against Marc for third place, was one of the mostintense moments EVER. Marc and I set off on our Light Weight skis to begin our heat with thesmallest wave conditions of the day. At one point we rode by each other with one hand offthe bar pointing to each other at how there were no waves. I tried to not focus on what

my tray off throttle and Bruno put the nose of his ski in the air. We collided into each otherwith a loud “BANG!” of fiberglass. Thankfully we were both up seconds later asking each other if one was okay. I continued to ride my heat and I ended up having a pretty good run beatingBruno. My Light-Weight came out without a scratch from our collision while Bruno’s bottomdeck on his SuperJet was split in half from bond rail to bond rail.

I advanced to my next round against my mentor, friend, and all around BAMF, Ross Champion.At this point I had already rode 5 rounds and was mentally drained from the stress of competing. I should have been most anxious going head to head against Ross but at that point, I was sostoked to be riding in a heat where if I won, I would proceed to ride for the win or if I lost, I would ride for 3rd place. All of my stress went out the window and for me, the contestbecame all about having a good time and riding with my good friend. Ross wished me luck andI explained to him that I didn’t care who won or lost. I told him “lets pretend we are having our normal progression session in Oceanside, and lets feed off each others riding.” I had thefunnest round of my life and ended up going the going the biggest of all previous heats I rodeand was just stoked to be there. I was defeated by the best freerider in the world...Oh, darn it..

Mr. Sickerling was doing, but every time I saw him he was boosting upside down. While making use of every wave that came up, to up my surfriding score and only doing aerials when the waves told meto, I was luckily able to do most of my arial variations. I look and saw the yellow flag was out signifying one minute remained, so I decided it was time to set up for a super flip. Time ran short and I was notable to yet perform that trick in a contest. So with the red flag out Marc and I headed to the beach and congratulated each other on our runs. As I stood on the beach and looked toward the judging tower,I prayed that the black flag, signifying my color jersey would fly. I stood for what felt like an eternity and the black flag was raised. I had done it! I had secured the 3rd place title on the first stop of theIFWA Pro Tour. I got to stand on the beach in joy as I witnessed two world champions, Pierre Maixent and Ross Champion battle it out for the 1st place title. Pierre had a serious motor advantage overRoss in the small surf, but Ross, never giving up, answered with tricks of his classic style to put on an incredible arial show including madonna backflips, super flips and barrell roll variations matchedbreath taking surfriding, it was a great final round for the crowd.

After the final heat we headed up to the center stage where trophies were given out to the sit down class, the French Championship and the Pro IFWA French stop. I was presented my 2nd place plaquefor the French Championship along side Pierre Maixent and Frederico Bufacchi. As the mic came my way to say something to the huge French crowd about the contest. From pure excitement andnervousness cam a loud “HELLLOOOO FRANCEEEEE” out of my mouth and the crowd went crazy! After those awards I was called up to receive my 3rd place trophy along with Ross Champion finishing arespectable 2nd and Pierre Maixent taking 1st place. The mic was given to me once again, where this time I thanked everyone for coming out and supporting freeride, and everyone for making thisevent even possible.

Ross, Marc and myself accomplished our goal in having all three Light Weights in top position and Norbert Webber was one very happy man. We ended the day with an autograph signing with Pierre,Ross and myself. This was where everything sank in for me. Here I was sitting at a table in France where less than 3 years ago, I was watching the two men beside me on videos online, blowing my mindand sparking my interest and passion for freeride. To now sitting next to my two heros, signing autographs with them for fans...I will never forget that day. It was the day where my life and careerchanged forever.

I cannot wait for the 2011 Blowsion Surf Slam where the next chapter of my story will be written.

Thanks to my friends, girlfriend Kristen, family and sponsors like Hydro-Turf, Premier Lath & Plaster, Lal-Guard Oil, Cold-Fusion Billet, Liquid Militia Clothing, and Blowsion for helping me get to where I’m at.

Until next time - Zack Bright

I was born in the middle of France in 1969, from a family of artists. As my mother is from Carribean, I grew up

between Carribean and France. At the age of 16 we moved

to Paris for good schools and studies. I started Photography

in 1986 for 3 years in a specific school, then I did another

Photography school for one more year. After that there

was not more I could do to avoid the army (in France,

youth don't really want to go to the army, we prefer to

chase girls in night clubs), so I spent one year in boot

camp hard training and doing transmission coding.

When I got out the army in 1992, I had to find a job and

being able to make a living.

As Photography was the only thing I could do, I said to myself that I had to "go for it". So I started trying to open the doors in sport as a total freelance photographer, which I've always been doing since then.At the beginning, it was very hard because you're notknown and you have to pay for everything (trips, gas,hotels, food, films, photo developing, etc…), andyou're not sure you'll sell your photos after that.But I hung on tight and started to get a little famousin the business, so after a few years themagazines started to call me. Then everythingchanged for me into a dream, I was finally living outof photography and got paid and recognized for it.I traveled through many countries and had theopportunity to work with international magazines. The biggest part of the job then was to write articlesin different languages (French, English, Spanish).But I didn't wanna complain knowing that is a lifethat many people want to have. I often thoughtabout this luck I had when I was shooting nice girlsin warm sand of tropical islands while my friendswere freezing out in cold France. In a certain wayI felt like I deserved that life because I worked hardto get to there. This lasted until now, but when digitalcame up to the market in more or less 2000, I felt thiswould change many things in my job; Good camerasaffordable for everyone, we saw more and morephotographers coming up in the business, whichstarted to break the market. I said to myself thatI had no longer to do in this business, and if I wantedto save my ass from that, I had to find something elseto do. Indeed, a lot of photography websitesappeared on internet. So I made my website whichthe first name was "usinagaz". As it didn't soundvery international I changed it into Fullgaz. In 2006,we created the company with two of my friends.Now it is still about action sports & lifestyle (andstill will be), but we are working on a new version(V5) which should be totally new with a lot of surprises…





This year's Grayland Open Amateur Freeride event on the Washington

coast was another one for the books. For those unfamiliar with the location, Graylandis a sleepy place on on the usually cold, foggy, rainy Washington State coast near Gray'sHarbor. You never can tell whether it is going to be 50 degrees with rain and howling windor 80 degrees, sunshine, and no wind at all. Alas, save for some early morning fog andclouds, the weather turned out to be beautiful on both event days. For the first time this year, the event hosted Motosurf Racing, a Big Air Competition(with equally big names) and the regular Amateur Freeride of the last two years past.Competitors traveled from all over the place. We had our regular local riders from theWashington Coast: the legendary Smith brothers who really want to see an aging legendsclass next year, event organizers Dan Lindgren and Nick Foster, always busy Les Schwabjockey Casey Hogarthy, rollin' Adam Bingaman, Kamikazi X2 rider Erik Loomis, and lots ofothers. Then there were others from the east side of the state and adjoining states, including Motosurf organizer and walking Tattoo Parlor billboard “fricking” Ian Benson, keyboard cowboy Matt Engels, North Idahoans Rick and Jeff Fred, Hawaiian native Rich Frifeldt, and others. Finally, the big names coming in from afar: Alaskan boy wonderTanner Thomas, Hollywood stuntman Mark Gomez, big air tricksters Zack andJake Bright from California, and up and coming superstar Christian Young (13 years old!), also from California.Event sponsors this year included JetTribe Core Watercraft, Watcon, Superfreak Skis, Blowsion, X-Scream, Hydroturf, JetPilot, Cold Fusion, Liquid Militia, SBT, Impros, Coca Cola, and many local sponsors such as JackNut, Les Schwab, North Coast Surf Shop,105.7 The Jet, Westport Inn, and many others. We would like to give a big shout outof thanks to our many new and returning sponsors for making this event possible inthe first place - THANK YOU!Saturday morning started out with Amateur Freeride qualifying. 14 competitors battledit out to place themselves for the heats to come. The scene was one regularly seen atNorthwest surf competitions: mechanical problems, great surf riding, rolls, nose stabs,backflips. By noon, the tide had gone all the way out making for about a quarter mile ofbeach. The afternoon brought runabout and standup Freeride heats and sunny weather.Local spectators enjoyed the aerial action and great-looking boats on display. Towardsthe end of the day, Jake Bright and Christian Young had advanced into the AmateurFreeride finals, saved for the next day. Matt Engels managed to slightly injure bothankles on an over-rotated backflip and walking tool box Randy Jungwirth of Watconhad spent all day fixing various boats.The evening was spent awarding trophies for the first day's effort (below) and premieringBlowsion's new “Fistful of Foam” DVD.

The second event day was started with the first Motosurf Race. Anyone

who's never seen standups racing in the surf has truly missed out. Great action,

gnarly wipeouts, and edge-of-your-seat suspense for six laps. The Amateur Freeride

finished out with Jake Bright battling Christian Young, who injured his ankle on a big

backflip and was towed back to his boat by Jake Bright during the heat. That's what

it's all about - camaraderie. This move resulted in ear-shattering applause on the

beach from other competitors, judges, and spectators alike.

Jake Bright walked away with the Amateur Freeride trophy while Christian Young

got checked over by the helpful EMS staff on the beach.

Next up was the Big Air Competition. Notable moves were a backflip by Tanner Thomas,

huge nosestabs by Jake Bright, no-handed barrel rolls by Mark Gomez, and huge

no-footed and Madonna backflips by Zack Bright, winner of this event. Unfortunately,

Zack also injured his ankle landing this last trick. This made for three injured ankle

stooges on the beach that weekend (Zack, Christian, Matt).

The day was finished with the final Motosurf Race and our awards ceremony in the

late afternoon. Competitors helped tear down the event equipment

and started their short, medium, and long treks home.

The 2011 Blowsion SurfSlam was held September 9-11, in Pacific City, Oregon. This has been one of the largest draws

in the watercraft industry for sponsors, spectators and competitors…and 2011 would be another stellar year!! On

Course Events produced the event and Carol Ann andRob Guistina payed attention to detail and left everyone

on the beach with a big smileas there was plenty of swag including t-shirts from Blowsion,

Cold Fusion, WetRacer and HydroTurf, while other sponsors hadunique gifts like the SPY wraparound coozies and Pepperoni from

Tillamook Country Smoker. The event features Amateur and Professional Freeriding as well as a

Ski Division Moto-Surf race. There were several vendors that had awesome products like Blowsion, Jettribe , Gasket Technologies,

Massages by Jacqueline, and great food from The Q Crew and Dog Gone Good Things.

The IJSBA sanctioned Moto-Surf race featured 15 racers 10 Pro and 5 Amateurs. It was a "run what you brung"mêlée that attracted feature athletes like Jordan Fielder, Movie star, Mark Gomez, and last year's champ,Jeff Troegner of California. The first moto was taken by England's Jordan Fielder who earned his stripes by tamingthe extremely rough Pacific Ocean. When asked after the race, he didn't know that he actually won the first moto, but it wouldn'tbe enough to get the Overall from Mark Gomez, who starred in the movie "I am Number Four"! Gomez took a 2 and a 1 for the overall with his signature barrel roll on the last lap which left the crowd in awe. Gomez would take the Moto-Surf Championship after falling in the ¼ finals of Pro Freereide. Blowsion sponsored Jordan Fielder wouldtake second and Washington's Aaron Newport would fill the podium! Joe Gardemeyer was the winner of the Amateur Moto-Surf race!!

The Pro Freeride was completely insane!!! Beginning with qualifying, this international field that featured racers from France, Brazil, Japan, South Africa, and of course thegood ole US of A. Attending Surf Slam for the first time was japanese rider Murau "Devil" Taakaki and South African rider Jake Montadon. Both put on a great show for the crowd. France would make it to the ¼ finals with Pierre Maxient representing against Taylor Curtis! Curtis would take that in the best showdown I have witnessed! Curtis with a newtrick called an Underflip re entry would work the Semi-Finals through Murano "Devil" Takaaki to face the winner of the other bracket! Speaking of the other bracket, it wasstacked as well with free riders like Ross Champion, Zack Bright, andJerry Brandon to name a few! The local Darin "Air” Anderson showed up to give every rider hell on his stomping grounds despite having freshstitches in his shin from a recent bad landing. Last year's champion,Ross Champion, worked through the brackets skillfully as he tricked hiway into the finals against Taylor Curtis! Curtis, however, introduced anew level of competition and degree of difficulty, as he completedseveral re-entry variations, however; he would have mechanical issues which led to his demise into the runner-up position. Champion wouldcomplete the back to back victories and is the first free rider to win back-to-back titles at the Blowsion Surf Slam! The Big Air competitionon Sunday was exactly that. BIG AIR and was won by Pierre Maxientwith a check of $500 big ones. Special thanks to John Dady, of Blowsion, Jeff at the Pacific City Inn, Jessica at the Oar House andScott Frazier! Hope to see everyone in Lake Havasu for the

th30 Anniversary of the World Finals!!!!Peace out for now!!! Mikey Young

The Amateur Freeriders always go huge at this particular event. Sunday was a great day for the youngest of the amateur freeriders Christian Young who posted his biggestwin of his young career and made his father, Michael, a very proud father! This kid has made a hugeleap in the quality of his riding and will definitely be a force to be reconned with in the near future. There were several amazing runs, but the podium only holds three…taking second to Christian Young on the podium was South Africa's Jake Montadon, who did it on borrowed Blowsion property. Newcomber, Wesley Krautkramer, had an epic debut as he landed a podium spot also, in third! Hard Luck award this weekend would go Tanner Thomas who lost his ski to davey joneses locker and was injured being rescued. Tanner who despite living on the small island of Ketchikan Alasaka, has earned himself a predominant spot apart of the Oceanside Crew after this being his 2nd year driving upand down the coast of California shredding waves with local freeriders including mostly the Oceanside Crew. Also then touring event stops in the weeks before this contest. We wish him the best and hope to see him in competition again soon!!! (Hopefully his ski will be found and returned to him)





Riders had been in training for months, ski's were all serviced, tuned and

everything was set to go!

The Akaroa to Lyttelton race is an annual race that puts over 50 ski's and

riders up against some of the toughest conditions in any personal

watercraft race held in New Zealand. The challenging ocean ride takes

riders out of the calm harbor of Akaroa into the Pacific Ocean and follows

the coastline 45 miles to the destination of the port town of Lyttelton.rdFriday the 3 of September, all the out of town riders had commenced

their journey and along with the local riders had settled down for a

quiet night in preparation for the Akaroa to Lyttelton Endurance race.

Early nights had been had so everyone would be in peak condition for th

early morning start. What we didn't expect was a 4:30am wake-up call

from Mother Nature… I can still remember it like it was yesterday,

getting thrown from my bed, and everything around me coming crashing

down, …… when things had calmed, I don't know if anyone realized that

our city had just been through a life changing event for a lot of people.

Within a couple of hours the call went out that our race had

been cancelled! A 7.3 magnitude earthquake had thrown our

city upside down!!!

With the September earthquake almost behind us and our city pretty much back to normal,

everything was on track for our NZ Jet Sport Nationals, again to be held in our home town

of Christchurch. After hundreds of hours of organizing, once again the event was set to

happen and be the biggest and best race-meet the country had seen! The Canterbury Jet

Sport club is very spoilt and have their very own lake 'Lake Roto Kohatu' just 10 minutes

from the city centre where the event was due to be held.

All sorts of action had been planned

from the racing to on-water display

and trade display, this event was

going to be awesome and not one

to be missed.

Round two: …. This time though it

wasn't the night before, but two

weeks before the event was due tondbe held, on the 22 February at

12:51pm our lives where once again

tipped upside down but this time a magnitude 6.3 quake hit amongst a lunch time rush in our busy city. Although

on paper smaller than the September quake this one was shallower and centered across our main business area,

causing more devastation and destruction, with this time over 180 lives lost. Our city was again in lock down and 6

months later you still cannot get within a mile of what used to be our CBD.

Our local personal water craft stores were all thrown around and poor Brad Clarke and his team at Mike Phillips

Personal Watercraft are still working out of a temporary location. With some help from Mother Nature there

original shop had the showroom floor crack, giving way to tons of liquefaction which came up through the cracks

creating a beach like theme in the normally immaculate showroom. The local Kawasaki dealer also had a similar

series of events but has managed to keep operating out of his workshop after many hours of cleaning silt like liquifaction

out of everything and everywhere.

After the global recession making life a little tricky for our local dealers over the past couple of years, they now have

this to deal with and battle through. There are more tough times ahead, and the effects are getting felt right throughout

the country with dealers in Auckland and Wellington reporting a very fast downfall in business immediately after

February's quake.

On the upside of these devastating events, the Auckland Jet Sports Club, quickly put up their hand and said they

would host the 2011 NZ Jet Sport Nationals a month down the track at the amazing setting of 'Blue Lakes' in Rotorua.

The first weekend of March gave us some amazing racing at the 2011

Woodbine Marine Sea-doo NZ Jet Sport Nationals. There was an amazing turn out from

all over the country, including many of the Christchurch riders making the fifteen hour

journey north from their shaky town.

pert/Elite Runabout Stock, Brad Clarke (Sea-doo GTI) from Christchurch taking out

Veterans Runabout Open, Christchurch's Nick Magill (Kawasaki STX-R) taking out

Naturally Aspirated Runabout Open, and again from Christchurch Grant Wilson

(Sea-doo RXP-X) getting his first ever national title in Novice Runabout Stock

class. All in all, a very pleasing result board for Sea-doo taking out four of the five first

places in the run-about classes. The stand-up / pole ski classes also saw some super

close racing, with 13 year old Tayne Lemon showing a lot of the older riders that age

doesn't count on the lake and taking out Novice Ski 850 Stock on his superjet and a

close second in the Naturally Aspirated Ski 750 Open. Tayne came in behind Dunedin's

Steve Amende also riding a superjet. Amende also managed to collect first place in the

Veterans Ski 850 Open class. Tyler Nicholson from Tauranga (Riding a HSR) took

Expert/Elite Ski 850 Stock, and Trent Brown from Christchurch also riding a HSR

took Expert/Elite Ski 850 Open. Proving that girls are just as competitive, there was a

class of five ladies competing for the title Expert/Elite Women's Ski 850 LTD title, Hanna

Surgeoner from Tauranga took the title against some tough competition. Our special

guest Dawn Dawson who made the trip from the USA to be our event announcer also

put her wetsuit on to compete with the ladies. Dawn had been booked by the

Christchurch club to announce at the planned event and was lucky enough to be able

to change her tickets and make it to the Rotorua racing, was awesome having her

voice on the microphone all weekend. Also in perfect timing the all new Kawasaki

300x had only landed in our country the week before and three separate riders

managed to get their hands on these new ski's to compete. With two Christchurch

riders aboard (Darrell Dermott and Chris Farnley) managed first/second in the

Watercross Stock, and Callum Farnell from Auckland piloting his RXP-X taking the

Watercross Open trophy. All in all an absolutely amazing event, organized in a very

short time, big congratulations to the Auckland Jet Sport Club for making this happen.

That's it for the summer for us, the winter rounds are just kicking into action, but with

everything that has happened in the last nine months, I am guessing it is going to be

a cold hard winter for our sport and industry!

DJSA stands for Diablo Jet Ski Action and was started in 2006 by Jim Lambert, a water partrol Sherrif Deputy in Contra Costa County here in Northern California. He had a desire to bring the sport of PWC racing back to life onto the waterways of Northern California with the feel of your local hometown Motorcross or NASCAR track. While growing up, Jim had raced motorcross among other forms of motorsports with his brother and always enjoyed the environment of racershelping racers and sharing in the excitement. One night at local dirt track in Antioch,CA, Jim had an idea of a local PWC racing series with SAFETY beingits TOP PRIORITY!

The first couple years it was held in a local marina on the Delta on Wednesdaynights in the summer with a couple hand fulls of racers to today with sometimesVERY close to 100+ racers attending Jim's very informative riders meetings on thebeach at any given race event. What started as an idea of getting a few racerstogether has turned into a VERY EXCITING family racing series drawing racersfrom Utah, Nevada, So-Cal and all points in between!

The DJSA has a class for almost every one.The standup classes include classesfrom your Kawasaki 440/550/X2 to the Yamaha Super-Jets, Kawasaki SXR,Hydrospace. Sitdown classes have everything from Yamaha 'Blasters to KawasakiUltra 300's! If its a PWC, there is a class waiting for you. Wanna try FREESTYLE?Bring it! Got an ol' Kawasaki 550 sitting in the garage you used to rip it up onback in the days of NEON wetsuits and OAKLEY RAZORs but dont want to run all day? We got the 550 EXTREME- A CASH class. Drop $20 in the can, run amoto to get your start position, second moto winner wins the can which is VERY often over the $400 range with others donating to the can along withlocal business's adding money to sweetn the deal!

Traci Cottle Photogrophy 2011

When I started, I had two X2's bone stock and didn’t have a class, Jim said " Can you race with the 650 under class?" Sure! After 4 years, the X2-Army hasgrown from a couple skis to 10-14 skis at any one event! And its not just the Vintage classes offered filling the lines, but some sponsored riders and even someIJSBA Hall of Fame riders coming out and showing they still got what it takes and leaving with a huge smile asking when the next event is so they can call their oldfriends and have them either come out or watch us on the web via our webcast. Start lines are always growing and with the economy, racers still need to fulfill their need to race! Where else can you drop $50 and get two practice sessions, three motos and some great racing?

This source brings to light the necessity to lift the watercraft ban as well as some un supported(by real evidence) comments by NOAA to leave the ban in place. Personal Watercraft Industry ASN. V. Department of Commerce. 48 f.3d 540 (D.C. Cir. 1995), United States court of appeals: This sourceoffered legal implications and direction towards the uncertainty of the claims by NOAA that have driven the restriction of PWC use in specificlocations around the country. MBNMS, Resource Management Issues: Personal Watercraft, Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, montereybay.noaa.gov: This source is directly related to the fallible accusations against the PWC industry and a relation of the ban. A localizedgroup of the population being the source of the complaints to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration that created the ban.Fred Pawle, “Australian photographer Russell Ord rescues surfer Jacob Trette at Mavericks, The Australian, January 26, 2011 1:38pm: Thissource was picked due to firsthand accounts of the incident by the photographer who, despite the possibility of a hefty fine,Proceeded into the restricted zone to rescue a distressed surfer.

In today's society we seem to have large corporations and socialist viewpoints that are quite possibly infringing on inalienable rights of thevery population that they claim to be protecting. Looking at what some may believe to be an isolated incident or an isolated control over aspecific location, the decision of how areas of open water and public waterways are inevitably controlled by a single organization, NOAA. These restrictions are questionably the most fallacy driven arguments that have been placed into laws not just local but on the federallevels as well. NOAA is the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. NOAA claims to be “An agency that enriches life through science. Ourreach goes from the surface of the sun to the depths of the ocean floor as we work to keep citizens informed of the changing environmentaround them.” NOAA operates under the US Secretary of Commerce for Oceans and Atmosphere. The organization has been responsible forsevere storm warning systems and climate monitoring systems and is in regulatory control of fisheries and coastal waterway management. This coastal management is the focus of this article. In as early as 1992, NOAA began to implement restrictions of the use and operation ofMPWC (motorized personal watercraft) in pre-determined public use waterways. Laws and ordinances have been put into place underregulatory acts and by NOAA's own science proven to be created falsely. The regulations for the bans on personal watercraft have been liftedin many locations by Supreme Court reviews and the remarkable efforts of the American Watercraft Association. However, the restrictions ofwhat has been classified as “Thrill Craft” by NOAA officials includes the rescue watercraft and small agile vessels that have been proven tobe vital and even necessary in the event of floods and high surf conditions that our coastal waterways and estuaries are capable of creating.The Largest controversy at this time is the Monterey Bay National Marine sanctuary. This coastal preserve houses one of the largest surfable waves in the world. The location known as “MAVERICKS” is located outside theinlet to Half Moon Bay and approximately half a mile from shore. Although capable of being paddled into by surfers, the wave at Maverickslends itself to be more approachable by means of boats and other small watercraft. The larger boats can only get close enough to act as restingpoints and transportation to and from the marinas. The smaller MPWC (Motorized Personal Watercraft) that are capable of traversing directlyinto the waves paths are restricted to times of specific wave heights and conditions. However, most of the deaths and near deaths are occurringat outside of peak conditions. The surfers come to this location with years of training in locations around the globe and understand the risks involved. Recently there hasbeen a push by the RWCA (Rescue Water Craft Association) to once again lift the ban to allow for a volunteer rescue program to be put inplace that will allow rescue watercraft to be in the MBNMS at any time, not just under specific regulations. To prove a point on this, a recentrescue and life saved was done by an Australian photographer named Russell Ord. Ord was using a MPWC that was borrowed from anothersurfer at the site of Mavericks and the conditions were optimum, but not within the, extreme use only, regulations placed by NOAA. Ordaccounted the rescue of surfer Jacob Trette to “The Australian” as ““I'm a fireman and I've seen a few dead bodies,” Ord said. “He looked deadto me. This is five or six minutes (since the first rogue wave), maybe longer. He looked beyond dead.” Trette was transported to the hospitaland after approximately three weeks was released. Another recent account was the death of a big wave surfer from Hawaii, Sion Milosky. Miloski wassurfing at mavericks for several days before he went down. Rescue craft located him a great distance down the beach around 15-20min after his board was

pulled free of him by a following wave. An account from a rescuer involved was as follows:“I'm looking over just devastated,” Killen said. “Hishead's flopping and I could tell he was blue from far away. But I still have a lot of hope because ... he's Sion.” The same rescue person alsocommented that“We want to raise money to pay for, ideally, two to three Jet Skis in the water to create our own lifeguard crew out there,”Dollar said Thursday. “I think it's entirely necessary,” Killen said. “They have lifeguards at Capitola and there's people spraining their ankles.At Maverick's, you have professional athletes that are supporting their families, and they can't fund that?” The spokesperson for NOAA hasmade allegations that said “Milosky's death was a “real tragedy,” but she took a hard line against the ability of Jet Ski drivers to save surfers. Frankly from the reports, it sounds as though they lost track of the body for a full 20 minutes despite the fact there were two to three skis outthere. So the presence of the Jet Skis was immaterial,” These kind of statements and contradictory scientific studies in the effect of the on thehabits of wildlife and destruction of vegetation have proven to be the viable basis for the bans. If there was a rescue team and the use of theMPWC permitted without restrictions would there never be a death? Most likely there would be an occasional death, but the amount of livesthat would benefit from the lifting of the ban would out way the deaths tenfold.



has emerged on the performance watercraft scene with a splash. The high

performance, high profile service, repair and parts shop has quickly

established itself as the industry leader for those who want nothing but the

best for their jet ski needs. Steve, along with his right hand man Chad Cole,

have been working together for over seventeen years and have built race skis

for many World and National champions. Steve was also very much involved

in the highly acclaimed but short lived Polaris Octane along with developing

some of the industries' first aftermarket performance goodies. Steve grew up

in the Phoenix area and has been head of U.M.I Racing, contract builder for

Factory Kawasaki, owner of Jet Ski Unlimited and now head of Kommander

Industries. I had a chance to visit Steve in his new, expanded shop and take

a peek plus get the scoop on what's new in the jet ski guru's world.

Hi Steve, thanks for taking the time out of your busy schedule

to let WetRacer Magazine readers know what's happening with you and

Kommander Industries. What are you guys up to at this point in time?

Aaron Sanchez:

Steve Webster:

S.W.:

At this point we are mainly preparing for the World Finals.Building Race skis and organizing all the details for our display booth. We have about 15 new products we will be showing at this year's event along with some very special skis we have built.

What is your background in the jet ski industry, and how long has Kommander been around?I have been involved with the industry my entire adult life. I started working in a jet ski shop when I was 13. I worked for Jet Ski Unlimited from 1987 until

1992. I then went to work for UMI Racing and worked to develop that brand until 2003. In 2003 I bought Jet Ski Unlimited and owned that until the end of 2008 when we sold it. We Started Kommander in November of 2008.

Where is Kommander located and how can customers get a hold of you?We are located in North Phoenix and they can contact us on the phone, Email, Facebook or via our web-site.

What is the mission statement for Kommander Industries?

I've heard that you were behind many of the much loved U.M.I Racing products. Is that true, and if so which ones? That is true. I was lucky enough to be involved in the industry during a time when it was growing at a very rapid pace. At that time we had a great team

of guys at UMI. Scott Urschel, (UMI Racing Founder) Lloyd Eason (Head Engineer) and myself designed, manufactured and brought to the market hundreds ofnew parts. We mainly focused on Steering and handling parts. Billet sealed bearing steering systems for all types of watercraft is what put use on the map.

A.S.:

A.S.:

A.S.:

Our goal here at KOMMANDER INDUSTRIES is to maintain and build upon the already established world-renown reputation for building and supplying every customer with the very best performing personal watercraft, parts and engines in the industry.

Are there any new and exciting products coming

from Kommander in the near future?

We will have about 15 new products we have released or

are releasing in the next few weeks and at the World Finals.

We also have some very cool products in the works. There's lots of new

stuff coming.

Is there a Factory Kawasaki connection with Kommander?

Yes!

Who is on the Kommander racing team for 2011?

We have so many racers that we support on many levels all over the

world. Our Main Pro Riders are Dustin and Tyron Motzouris, Chris

Lawrence, Ian Roberts, Craig Warner, Jake Barker, Lisa Barsby, Jim

Goodchild, Mark Gomez, David Redinger,we also support a small team of

Junior riders. J.J. and Skylar Stone, Blake Wicklund, The Conroy Sisters

The Conroy Sisters Lauren and Meg. I have some super talented Amateur riders like Kody and Kaleb Conhaver and a ton more. There are too many to list them all.

What does it take to land a spot on the team Kommander roster?

Send me a resume. I love to support people that race / compete on

personal watercraft.

Will there be any special pro riders representing Kommander at World Finals?

Yes! Dustin and Tyron Motzouris should be back this year. Plus all the

people I listed above.

There seems to be a lot of interest in the 1100 SXR conversion skis lately, do you think that is the future of stand ups and will two stroke technology survive?

These conversion motor ski's are great for the sport. They allow guys to be able to create reliable competitive ski's at a fraction of the cost of purchasing and

owning a Hydropace or a full built 2 cylinder motor that requires race fuel. For now it is the way to go.

Does Kommander offer parts or services for the freeride skis?

Yes I have been building freeride ski's and motor packages for many years. I started with Joe Kenney back in 2000 and have continued to build motors and

ski's for many of the top guys like Ross Champion, Randy Laine, Josh Lustic, Taylor Curtis, Mark Gomez, Darren Anderson, Chris Rosner and many more.

Do you think any OEM's, besides Benneli, will produce a new stand up in the future?

Yes.

Do you also work on sit down models?

Yes we do. I have built many race and rec performance sit down ski's.

Are there any other mechanics that you admire in the jet ski community?

Chad Cole is my right hand man and one of the best PWC mechanics I have ever

worked with. He is a big part of the success we have seen on the race course over

that last 6 years. Also guys like Darren Hedlund, Kanamori , Tim Judge, Les Cooke.

Your skis always looks so clean and slick, who creates the graphics for them?

LG1 Designs and myself.

.

I've raced with you a few times and have seen your mad skills on a stand up,

will you be doing any more closed course racing in the future? Surf Slam?

Mad Skills is pushing it a bit but I try to race as much as I can. Surf Slam is my

favorite event of the year. Anytime we can race in the surf I am ready to go.

What advice do you have for up and coming racers?

Go to College and get a degree. Race for fun!

Who is the most impressive rider that you see out there currently?

The Motzouris brothers are great, Steven Dauliach, Kevin Reiterer, Ross Champion.

Of all the old school pros who would you most like to see make a comeback, and why?

Jeff Jacobs. He is one of my Favorites and he could still win if he put his mind to it. Also Tera Laho

Do you think that there should be separate race courses for stand ups and sit downs?

Yes.

Why do you think that racing has seen an ongoing decrease in entries? Is it the cost, the locations of race sites, poor promotion, constantly changing

rules or perhaps all the above?

Well the economy is not helping. Locations are tough to come by. It is a tough time for American Jet Ski racing . I hope that we see a turn around in the

economy and I think that will help. I would love to see some fresh new promoters. I know there are people out there with some great concepts and idea that will

help rebuild the racing side of the sport. I have spent hours on the phone with a few of these guys and girls. Lisa Barsby has a great series going in the UK that

is doing very well.

Which do you prefer – surf races or flat water?

Surf. It is much more about the rider's skills than his or her ski.

Do you enjoy other hobbies other than jet skis?

My family. I have three kids. 2 boys and one girl. 4 yrs, 3 yrs and 18 months. They are my other hobby. We are into all types of boating and we ride offroad

bikes and ATV's in the winter. My new favorite sport is Wake Surfing. Tons of fun. Great for an old guy . You only go 11mph.

Do you have any special memories or juicy stories that you can share with us from

your years in the jet ski industry?

Yes! Tons and no Comment! What happens on tour stays on tour.

Is there anyone you would like to thank or acknowledge for helping you along

the way?

I have to thank Chad Cole for being such a tremendous help all these years.

Also Sean Workman for creating and maintaining our website and developing most

of our promotional items like T-shirts, hats, banners etc.

Thanks so much for your time Steve, it was a lot of fun and I appreciate your

input. I'm sure the WetRacer readers will enjoy this.

No worries, I also enjoyed doing this. Anytime.
