"We
want to provide a clear, consistent rule book for the riders and the
teams," explained Pro Watercross CEO AJ Handler. "We took a lot of
ideas and suggestions into consideration during our planning. We feel
that Pro Watercross is on track for a great 2016 season.”
In an
effort to grow the sport, Pro Watercross is introducing the Ski Superstock
class that allows “approved” aftermarket hulls. The “approved hull” list will
be announced and posted on the Pro Watercross website’s rule book page in the
near future.
In
additional to the aftermarket hulls the class has made provisions for using the
4-stroke Yamaha TR-1 and Rotax 900 ACE engines along with 2-stroke engines with
a limited number of enhancements. See Technical Rule 27 – Ski Superstock for
complete rules on this class.
“After
research and discussion with industry professionals and competitors, we see this
class development as a stepping stone for the Pro-Am Ski GP class. This class
will continue to make the sport's roots stronger than ever” continued Handler.
“With the advancements being made in 4-stroke technology Pro Watercross is
looking to be proactive in race class development.”
The Ski
GP class has increased the 4-stroke displacement limit to 1050cc to allow for
further innovation in the class. Due to the unknown power output capabilities
of the latest 4-stroke power plants, specific rules will be adjusted
periodically throughout the year to maintain parity in the GP class. See
Technical Rule 28 – Ski GP for complete rules on this class.
Changes
to the Runabout Box Stock Rules now allow parts to be updated and backdated.
See Runabout Box Stock Technical Rule 33.1.4 for further information.
