The International Jet Sports Boating Association is proud to announce that Australia will host the first Motosurf World Championship on February 26 of this year. This is an exciting development for Personal Watercraft Racing, said IJSBA Managing Director, Scott Frazier. Initially we had planned on having Northern and Southern Hemisphere Championships with a points contest to determine the Motosurf World Champion host location for 2007. However, affiliates from other potential Motosurf locations have opted to host other premiere IJSBA sanctioned events which will be announced shortly. Frazier explained that the plan is to have three to four premiere title events outside of the United States with the World Finals remaining in the US. Aside from closed course racing, there are other classifications of PWC competitions that are deserving of World Championship recognition, continued Frazier. These would include Surf Competitions, Indoor Racing, Endurance, and FreeRide type of contests. The IJSBA also plans to rotate some of the venues and to allow different affiliates to host the events.
