According to this announcement, registration is open for Round 1 of the 2017 P1 Racing Fuels European Freestyle Championships! This is even is sanctioned by the IJSBA and the Freestyle Personal Watercraft Association is stoked to let everyone know.
Competitors can find registration forms here on the European PWC Freestyle site, where more information pertaining to the event and other European PWC contests may be found.
Round 1 will take place in So’Fun Village (Villeneuve La Guyard), France on Saturday May 20, 2017. The event is in its 6th season of the freestyle only tour in Europe. The organizers have even added a new class for this year; Beginner Freestyle Open, which was a highly successful class in the USA last year.
They hope the Beginner Class encourages new riders to enter and become part of competitive freestyle skiing.
