MotorActionMedia.com collaborated with the team at Pro Watercraft Racing.com to create a recap of the evolution of the Pro Force — which had its debut a little over a year ago.
The Pro Watercraft Racing.com Pro Force was unveiled at the Junior Stars event in October of 2015; a year later, it was one of the most competitive skis at the IJSBA World Finals. MotorActionMedia.com had a chance to go behind the scenes with the riders, and the creator Chris Hagest, at the 2016 IJSBA World Finals and get an in depth story of how far the Pro Force has come, and what the riders really think about what is considered the most unique race hull on the market.
Since last year, Chris Hagest and his team have continued their process of evolving, spending the entire year improving on their craft in order to step up their game at the 2016 World Championships. With a good number of talented athletes on Pro Force hulls by Pro Watercraft Racing.com, the capability of the Pro Force was clearly seen. From some of the top athletes in the world in the GP classes, to some of the “older guys” in the Vets classes, there were several Pro Forces lined up in Lake Havasu.
This video contains a behind the scenes interview with Toshi Ohara, the Japanese rider who put on an incredible charge in Pro Ski GP and Pro Ski Open on a Pro Force. An interview Tera Laho, who made history as the first female rider to break the top ten in Pro Ski GP and Pro Ski Open on the Pro Force, and an interview with Troy Armstrong, who was on the podium in a stacked Master’s Ski class.
You’ll also get to hear straight from Chris Hagest himself, on the evolution of the Pro Force from its debut in 2015 to the IJSBA World Finals in 2016.
