                                                                          12:00-7:00 Open Riding

                                                                          KCW Rail Jam competition is as follows:

                                                                                          There will be 4 divisions to compete in, beginner, intermediate and advanced wakeboarding, followed by the wakeskate division.  Each heat will last 10 minutes, and in those 10 minutes each rider will attempt to hit as many obstacles as possible.  Heats will be determined by the total number of riders signed up for each division and the riders names will be randomly selected to determine which heat he/she will be riding in.  The top two riders from each heat will move on to the finals round for each division and compete for a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finish.

                                                                                          If there are eight competitors signed up for a particular division, four will ride in the first heat and four will ride in the second heat.  The top two competitors from both heats will ride in the finals heat for that division.  1st, 2nd and 3rd place will be determined from pre-selected judges.

                                                                                          Although this is called a Rail Jam, all obstacles are still eligible.  Each rider will want to hit as many obstacles as possible and do whatever tricks they can on each of those obstacles.  If the rider crashes, then he/she can rush back to the starting dock to get back on the cable, if time allows, continuing their run.

                                                                                          KC Watersports will also be sponsoring a food drive in co-operation with Harvesters of Kansas City for the week prior to the Rail Jam event, starting Monday, September 12th and ending Sunday, September 18th.  So help us fight hunger for this upcoming winter by bringing in a non-perishable food item to the KC Watersports location.  Even if you aren’t riding, we encourage you to help out this great cause.

                                                                                          The competition will start at 2pm on Saturday, September 17th.  Entry fee for the competition will be $20 or $10 with the donation of 2 canned goods, and there will also be a 3-day pass offered for September 16th-18th for a fee of $65.  The $65 fee also includes the entry fee into the competition.  This will give each rider a chance to come out and fine tune their skills for the competition.  Open riding will be from 3pm-7pm on Friday 16th, 11am-2pm on Saturday the 17th, and upon completion of the competition until 7pm.  It continues on Sunday the 18th from Noon-7pm.
