2016 Florida skimboarders cRossover tour movie

Florida Skimboarders Crossover Tour:
I created these events back in 2001, I will handpick 15 of the Best Professional and Amateur Skimboarders to travel across Florida, cruising from Tampa to Sebring ending in Vilano Beach for the famous Fl Skimboarding Pro/Am. This event pits some of the BEST Skimboarders in the world against each other in 2 additional events to challenge their diverse abilities. We film these events as they unfold and create a mini movie to show everyone Saturday night during the Fl Pro/Am VIP party hosted by RDS, This year will be TBD.
​
As for travel and hotels : We suggest if you decide to stay in Tampa prior to the Skate event or after, look around the Sarasota or Venice area. Nice hotels and not far from I-75 in order to head to Sebring on Thursday. Normally athletes head directly to Sebring after the post party. This is entirely up to you, we will get some information on hotels in the near future. We all need to arrive at Lake Jackson by 10:00 am on Thursday. We will have a riders meeting prior to event to answer any questions.​

Wake Surf hosted by Phase5 at Lake Jackson, Sebring Fl.
Your order of rotation will be determined by how you finish at the Skate event.
​
Each rider will have solo runs up and back, with one pickup during your run if you fall. Basically 3 total pick ups, 1 to start your run UP, then 2 on your way back plus 3 if you fall.
Here is an idea of how we run the event, only an idea, this format could change depending on how many entrants we have
Round 1 : Each rider gets 3 runs up and back, lowest score is dropped to tally a total of 2 runs. Lowest 5 riders fall out.
Round 2 : Each rider gets 3 runs up and back, lowest score is dropped to tally a total of 2 runs. Lowest 5 riders fall out.
Round 3 : FINALS, Each rider gets 3 runs up and back, lowest score is dropped to tally a total of 2 runs.
Awards immediately following in the parking lot.
Florida Skimboarders Crossover Tour Points:
You will receive a point according to your placing in each event and will be tallied heading into the Fl Pro/Am. Each riders Fl Pro/Am points will be determined by how you place against the other riders in the Crossover Tour. Rider with the lowest total points at end of all events will be crowned the champion. ( In case of a tie, the athlete that advances farther in the Fl Pro/Am will break the tie)
