Three events took place over two days encompassing all aspects of wake: Boat, Wake Park and the Inaugural Red Bull Raise the Bar High Jump contest. The weekend began early Saturday morning behind the Mastercraft X10 with the newbie boat divisions. Spray Lake's pristine glass conditions did not fail, and The Roots crew managed to doge the solid day-long thunderstorm forecast. New this year was the addition of 3 categories including Newbie 8 & under, Beginner Adult and Advanced men. These new categories are a testament to the growth of the sport in Ontario and were reflected by the 87 participants – the highest number in history for the first stop of the season.
