London Night Jump at Liquid Leisure.
The night jump final proved to be an incredible event with another new winner in Canadian Ryan Dodd. Conditions appeared to be perfect for jumping in the dark. There was very little wind and the arena was lit up just right. Ryan went out early in the final to set a bench mark 68.3m. This proved way too much for Jaret and Jason to match. Freddy Krueger, who has historically not had a great deal of success at this event, was last off the dock in the final. Freddys first jump was 68.2m making it look like it was going to be his event. Even with three quality jumps Freddy still could not catch Ryan. A truly worthy winner. Click here for the full results.

The Ski Full Stretch Princes Pro-Am.
With the Pro-Am first round on Saturday by far the best conditions, it produced the best results which saw Will Asher the leader from Chris Parish.
Naturally the Head to Head final saw both Will and Chris progress to the final. Chris set the mark of 2.5 @ 10.75m and Will who was on form all week end ran the pass to take the title. Last years winner Nick Parsons went out to Jamie Beauchesne who had a spectacular crash which saw his double boot snap off and the ski go shooting towards the boat as he rounded buoy four.

My apologies for the inactivity on these pages. As many of you know Planetwaterski is a hobby for me which I started messing with way back in 1999. Work commitments have prevented me from keeping it up dated recently. Normal service will now resume with some superb coverage of events over the next two months.
First up will be the EAME Championships from Fagersta in Sweden, then the Pro-Am from Princess in London, evening updates of the pro rounds and then Sunday, live scores from the London Night Jump.
Then in September, daily coverage from the World Senior Trophy from Sesena in Spain.
