The Air Nautique Wake Games qualifiers were a blast, with a great showing by the women. Four heats of four riders in the Pro Women category! It was great to see so many girls with varying abilities giving it their all out on the water. Making it through to Saturday’s semifinals were Amber Wing, Nicola Butler, Raimi Merritt, Dallas Friday, Megan Ethell, Hayley Smith, Emilee Wright, and Anna Hajek. We also got to watch Jen Gilan Farr doing some sweet wakeskating early in the morning. Check out pictures of Day 1 here. Also, some extras made their way onto our Facebook page.
