‘BIGGER AND BETTER’ COORS LIGHT TRAUMA TOUR RETURNS TO SYLVAN LAKE FEATURING WORLD-CLASS WAKEBOARDING AND TOP MUSICAL ACTS

 

The Coors Light Trauma Tour featuring the Pro Wake Invitational returns to Sylvan Lake, Alberta this summer, and with a new two-day format, it promises to be bigger and better! Ten of the world’s top professional wakeboarders will compete for $40,000 U.S. in prize money. And there will be non-stop concert performances from the hottest bands around – it’s all part of the Solo Mobile Concert Series.

 

The Solo Mobile Concert Series will be kicking off on Friday, September 1 with a performance by Bedouin Soundclash.
 
The trio from Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario set the Canadian music scene on fire last year with their hit single “When the Night Feels My Song” which rose all the way to Number One on MuchMusic and was the second most played song on Canadian radio in 2005. De La Soul will headline the concert series the next night.
 
Also new for 2006, is a national and international television broadcast of the Coors Light Trauma Tour in Sylvan Lake. The event will be featured on the Xtreme Channel and Fusion TV as well as OLN in the United States.

 

Canadian pro wakeboarders Chad Sharpe and Rusty Malinoski will take on the best riders in the world including Andrew Adkison of the U.S., the Pro Wakeboard Tour’s number one ranked rider. The 10 pros will battle it out on the water in three wakeboarding disciplines – “Double Up”, “Rail Rumble” and “Full Pull” – with each discipline worth $10,000. An additional prize of $10,000 will also be awarded to the best rider overall.

 

As if the action on the water and the stage isn’t enough, fans can also look forward to the high-flying stunts of the Metal Mulisha Freestyle Motocross show and the battle of the beauties for the title of Miss Trauma Tour.

Dennis Bannock recently placed 11th at the Showcase Showdown amongst 180 other people out enjoying a progressive contest format (competitors just sounds so stale).  Not bad for an old dog with new tricks!! Den is travelin and will be at the Coors Light Triple Challenge at Blue Mountain on Mar. 9, 10th and 11th and then at the You Look Good Finals at Horseshoe on the 18th.  Plus Bannock will be shreddin all over Ontario this week shooting for his Trick Tips in SBC.

JF Fortin is taking a wee break from filming for IN Transit (new Alterna film), kind of but not really.  JF will be at the Coors Light Trauma Tour at Avila in Quebec this Saturday.  The contest should be fun although the footage from the rail missions should be even better.

Molly Milligan is trying to snake the US open.

Matt Beardmore is waist deep in pow filming with Absinthe.

Shapiro Welters and Barker are heading to the interior with a camera and the natural high of life on the road with a bunch of sausage.

Ahh now its time for rumors.  Its no surprise that the hatchet will be available in 2 colourways next year, but the big news is there will be a Ltd Edtion Canadian Hatchet available only in Canada only.
