It has been more than a year ago when Solas had engineered its first pump for Kawasaki SX-R. Recently the company released a new drop nozzle kit for this particular pump which incorporates removable nozzle rings in order to adjust thrust and tune the power delivery according to the riders needs. Though the length of the steering nozzle is short and it does not meet the latest requirement needs. For more info contact Group K.

The Brazilian designer revealed at the World Finals his latest innovation, the Wamerjet. It’s a new Ski based on his previous design, Polaris Octane, which features the Weber motor. Deck and hull have some similarities with the octane though the unique hood of the engine compartment is a show case on its own. Wamilton has already shown the two models which one of them is for freestyle use. Prices and availability will soon be announced.

Canadian multi National and World Champion (19 World titles) Mike Klippenstein showed up even stronger this year on his specially tuned four stroke ski. Klipper was ahead of the field at the first moto maintaining a steady lead from aggressive Dauliach and Motzouris. On the 2nd moto Klippenstein played it safe by cruising smartly in 2nd place behind the leader Motzouris which was enough to bring him the mostly desirable Pro Ski World Title.

Although, MacClugage and Farthing were not participating in the Pro Runabout class, the competition was intense and Craig Warner managed to keep up with it on his factory Kawasaki and gave a hard time to the well prepared turbocharged Sea Doo riders from Great Britain and Australia. After taking a relaxed win in the 1st moto he gave it all in the 2nd moto especially at the start by having a face to face drug start till the first hairpin out of the double slalom. Then he managed to maintain his lead and win his first ever world title, just the third four stroke world title for Kawasaki.

Competition gets even more intense every year in the Pro Am women class. Japanese rider Emi Kanamori played the protagonist role in the class by being in a class of her own in the 1st moto. Young French rider Bulteau was ahead of the pack at the 2nd moto with Yuki and Emi trying to catch her up. Though, at the final lap Yuki hit Bulteau at the first hairpin out of the slalom leaving Kanamori to take her second win. Though, Kanamori was docked a lap due to a missing buoy therefore the title went finally to Barsby.

Freestyle participation got better this year and more riders made it to the top class. Though competition was at a reasonable level and most riders pulled out maneuvers and tricks that were all ready shown in the past. Malone’s protégée Burgess made a big step ahead from last year and Lenzi showed up quite confident but with nothing new to reveal. On the other hand Japanese rider Fumikazu “Bun” Watanabe made a flawless routine with great aerial tricks. As a result he climbed to the highest level of the podium winning his first ever World Title in Pro Freestyle.

There is no doubt about the fact that Franky Zapata made a point to the GP Runabout class. He showed up with the fastest Runabout and was capable of riding it way out of its limit, showing the racers and the spectators that he is on top of the World, by creating the greatest difference between him and the second rider that has ever been at the World Finals. Though, luck of reliability restricted him to get the #1 place in the class. Still Zapata was the crowd’s favorite at the awards ceremony.
