The teams are then auctioned off with have of the money being paid out in
prize money and the other half will support the US Barefoot Teams attending

Each team member's overall score (from each event) is used in the scoring.

important than the World Champion Keith
StOnge.

Towboat Options at the 2008 US Barefoot Nationals
Open Women's Slalom - Malibu
Open Women's Tricks - Sanger
Open Women's Jump - Malibu
Open Men's Slalom - Sanger
Open Men's Tricks - Sanger
Open Men's Jump - Malibu
The American Barefoot Club (ABC) today announced the 2008 Barefoot Nationals
Open Skier Towboat selections. In a policy change approved by the ABC Board
of Directors at the Winter Board meeting last month, the selections are
being announced now rather than the previous announcement only weeks before
Nationals. The intent is to allow Open skiers a longer period to plan for
and train on the boats they will ski at Nationals.
In accordance with the changed policy, the ABC counts the number of
events pulled by each boat manufacturer from 1 January to 31 December of the
preceding year (2007) and the manufacturer with the greatest number of events pulled has
first choice in selecting which Open Skier event they want to use to
highlight their boat. The manufacturer with the second highest number of
events pulled gets second choice and so on until all the Open events are
covered. Boat manufacturers submit their prioritized choices as a blind bid.
This year Sanger had the first pick followed by Malibu.
New ABC Towboat Manual Approved
The ABC Board of directors at the Midwinter board meeting on January 26,
2008 approved an overhaul of the ABC Towboat Manual. This has now been
incorporated into the current
ABC Rulebook.
If you have questions about these changes please direct them
Mike Hartman who is
the Chairman of the ABC Towboat Committee.
