The Watercraft Journal is keeping our post short and simple today as we ask the PWC community to do what it has always done best – come together and support one of our own.
This past Sunday, officials connected with Wild West Watercross posted to social media, asking for prayers and support for Caleb Kile, who suffered injuries as a result of a crash during the weekend’s racing.
Kile, who is the series’ reigning Ski Open champion, suffered injuries including a broken femur, pelvic and sacrum fractures, and internal bleeding in different parts of his body, including his lungs. He faces multiple surgeries and a long and challenging road to recovery. Kile, a self-employed businessman, is the father to two – soon to be three – and husband to Charissa, who is a stay-at mother.
A GoFundMe account has been set up for Kile and his family to help defray the extensive medical expenses and support them during Kile’s recovery.
We at the Watercraft Journal wish Kile a speedy and complete recovery, and comfort and support for his friends, family and fellow racers.
