The King’s Cup, also known as the Jet Ski World Cup, is now in its 14th year. In the early years of the event, it accepted competitors mainly from Thailand and neighboring regions. Now the event is hosting hundreds of racers from all over the world.
With this being the last official PWC race of the year, there is a lot of pressure on the racers to compete to the best of their abilities. They will be pushing both their skis and bodies to their limits in very competitive racing action. Since racers are pushing their limits in every way, it is very possible that there will be errors and a “dark horse” could come away with the win in any of the classes. The King’s Cup will certainly be an interesting one to follow.
In 2008, ”the World Cup Grand Prix System” was introduced and acknowledged by the International Jet Sport Boating Association (IJSBA), with the objective to allow an equal opportunity to racers worldwide, which is in line with the standards of other international sports. The Grand Prix system allows only four racers from each country to compete in the pro categories. Even the host country must comply to this rule.
