17th Oct
Round 3 of the Malaysian Waterski & Wakeboard Championship took place in Putrajaya Water Sports Complex at Presint 6 last weekend on 17th and 18th Oct 2009.
This is my 3rd time attending this event at Presint 6. The first time in May was a blast as I was able to get some great shots. As a bonus, I was able to get onto the tow boat during Padiwat Jaemjan "Bomb" performance. Bomb is listed at World's Top 10 in WWA World Series.

The June championship was a disappointment as there were some dragon boat and canoe events which pushed the wakeboarding run to take place very far away from the shore, limiting photo ops.
Thankfully, this time the event was held closer to the shore. Surprisingly, the numbers of photographers present was lesser compared to the previous 2 rounds. Maybe it's because of the Nikon show and DG Color event. And this time, I was able to get back onto the boat for the wakeboard event.
Some of the pictures I manage to took on Saturday...
Wakeboarding is not always about cool poses and spectacular moves. Sometimes pain comes into the picture.. Oouucchh!!
One of the contestant, Sasha Christian from Singapore, took up extra responsibility as performer for the support event. She is currently one of the top wakeboarder in Singapore.
The next event will be the IWSF Putrajaya Waterski World Cup to be held from 5th to 7th Nov '09. One of the must see event will the jump event; something not seen in the last 3 local championship.
