WATER SPORTS: A recent interest to attend and photograph, water sports of all persuasions...

Please click on the heading or associated image to be taken to the dedicated page covering the event.....

V8 SUPERBOATS:

A mixture of Drag Racing, Rallying, Jet Skiing, this sport has it all. With over 1,600BHP available to boats in the Superboat Class the action, noise and agility is second to none.

The clickable image depicts the Superboat Class, #23: RAMJET.

MOOMBA MASTERS - TRICKS, 2013:

The Moomba Masters Championship for 2013 included the Men's and Woman's Tricks Competition on the Yarra River. Contestants from many Countries competed for the coveted Moomba Masters title.

WATERCROSS NATIONALS, 2012:

Held in conjunction with the Australian Jet Sport Boating Association and hosted by Yamaha, Kawasaki and Seadoo, the Australian Watercross Nationals held at the Gold Coast 'Spit' Marine Stadium delivered a superb exhibition of JetSki action with Competitors of all ages performing high speed manoeuvrers, including jumps and extremely tight turns.

JET SKIING:

I love Jet Skis, in particular the 'freestyle manoeuvrers'. Eight Times Australian Freestyle Champion, Jon 'Wire' Cooke's performances at the 2012 Australian Motorcycle, Scooter and Jetski Expo are featured here.

WAKEBOARDING:

Sponsored by 'Supra Boats', Queensland's Gold Coast was chosen for the 2011 event. Approximately 150 competitors took part in the Nationals held over four days at the Gold Coast 'Spit' Marine Stadium. This was the first time I have watched Wakeboarding, there was plenty of action with competitors from a wide age group.

WATER SKIING:

Early days as regards my coverage of Water Skiing.

I LOVE NEW TECHNOLOGY, TABLETS, LAPTOPS, DIGITAL CAMERAS, MOBILE PHONES/WIRELESS BROADBAND, GPS, ETC.  ALL SO COOL AND 'PORTABLE'......
