I was thinking about tracking the board and boat teams and keeping scores during the PWT. I put together a spreadsheet with the teams. I only used the riders that were listed as team riders. I know there are more that aren't listed such as Adam E on Ronix, Hair on Hyperlite and Nick Jones with Malibu. But if they aren't on the "Pro Team" should they be counted? Anyway, check it out. What do you think? <BR> <BR> <BR><!--attachment: Pro_Teams-443638.unk*attachment_icon.gif*application/octet-stream*36.4*Upload*Pro+Teams --><center><table border=1><tr><td><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/icons/attachment_icon.gif" align=left alt="application/octet-stream">Upload<br><a href="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65919/Pro_Teams-443638.unk" target="_blank"><b>Pro Teams</b></a> (36.4 k)</td></tr></table></center><!--/attachment-->

OK- so you can't attach spreadsheets- here is the list. <BR> <BR>CWB <BR>A Adkinson <BR>T Hansen <BR>G Lucas <BR>J House <BR>Zan <BR>S Broome <BR>C Bradley <BR>N Jones <BR>D Grasman <BR>J Wolf <BR>B Hutton <BR>Brett Lee <BR>R Carter <BR> <BR>GATOR <BR>K Lidberg <BR>G Nunn <BR>K Ratray <BR>R Harris <BR>J McKee <BR> <BR>Hyperlite <BR>Murray <BR>Ruck <BR>Rusty <BR>Rathey <BR>Oshea <BR> <BR>J Star <BR>Ike <BR>Weatherall <BR> <BR>Liquid Force <BR>B Greenwood <BR>Lyman <BR>Henshaw <BR>Mike Ennen <BR>P Soven <BR>S Bonifay <BR>Tino <BR>Clifford <BR>G Necrason <BR> <BR>Obrien <BR>Watkins <BR>Josh Sanders <BR>Nick Ennen <BR>Sean Obrien <BR> <BR>Ronix <BR>P Bonifay <BR>Chad Sharpe <BR>D Harf <BR> <BR>Correct Craft <BR>Rathey <BR>Murray <BR>Lidberg <BR> <BR>Malibu <BR>Henshaw <BR>Nunn <BR>C Sharpe <BR>P Soven <BR>Weatherall <BR> <BR>MC <BR>Adkinson <BR>Shane <BR>Parks <BR>Zane <BR>Rusty <BR> <BR>MB <BR>N Ennen <BR>M Ennen <BR> <BR>Supra <BR>T Hansen <BR>J Sanders <BR>B Greenwood <BR>A Hair <BR> <BR>Tige <BR>Tino <BR>Errington <BR>Broome <BR>Watkins <BR>Ruck

I think you forgot JD for your HL team, are you not counting Megan, Heather or the skaters?

What about Jesson Vedel for Gator, and how bout all the girls for the companies.

Jeff McKee isn't on gator anymore. He signed with Slingshot and you forgot Watson for Liquid Force and I think he's still with correct craft. Randy Harris and Keith Lyman are with malibu but not sure if they are on the "pro" team.

you forgot a few with CC... harf, watson &amp; JD more i can't think of... <BR>and i thought lidberg was with byerly now?

WOW?

Thanks. CC site doesn't have riders up yet. Lidberg is not mentioned on Byerly's site but still on Gator. The women don't hit all the sites but I guess you could put them on. <BR> <BR>So is this something people would like to see? <BR> <BR>if so I will track it. I will use tour points. I think you should use all the riders points, not just 5 best from each team. This rewards the companies that sponsor a lot of riders like CWB. What do you think?

Lidberg is with GB and you forgot Ricky G, Wes Brisco and Mark Weinkle. <BR> <BR>Can't believe you forgot the Miker on Team MB!

dean smith rides for j-star and supra, chris O'Shea rides for malibu, ike rides for centurion,scott and troy Mackey ride for hyperlite and correct craft. <BR>these are just a few aussies you may of heard of

I forgot Dean Smith?<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/sad.gif" border=0> He definitely should be on. I just went to the websites and took those names. I also didn't enter riders who don't compete since they can't score points. Anyway- nothing official here just seeing if there is an interest in doing something like this. If there is we can finalize who is on what teams. I would guess there is some since people respond and I believe the ratio of response to thread being read is 50 to 1. Meaning for every response there have been 50 other people who have read it. (Totally pulled that one out of my but it sounds good.) <BR> <BR> <BR>If you want to see a team score competition just reply with a yes or something. I need to figure out how you can post a spreadsheet if there is interest.

On the Obrien pro team you forgot, Nick Ennen, Cobe, Brent V. How about the Ladies, Dallas?

yes

i think that it would be cool to track each team boat, board, clothing and whatever. See which team is the winner.

I don't know how you go beyond boards and boats. How many clothing lines are there? Do you do sunglasses? Energy drinks? How do you find who everyone is sponsored by? I just looked at last years king of wake standings and there are 78 riders. A lot of them have sponsors where they are the only rider. There are speakers, vest, drinks, board shops, clothes plus who knows what. You have to put some limits on it. Every rider has a boat and or board sponsor. I know Jet Pilot and maybe Fox Riders could have a team. Maybe have a minimum rider rule. Must have 5 pro riders to be eligible as a team.

how bout the fox team....stacked

adam errington for ronix

I avve completed putting together a relational database to track each pro rider and the points they score for eacxh of their teams. Murray for example will score points for Hyperlite, Correct Craft, Jet Pilot and Fox. The teams are <BR>Boat- Master Craft, Tige, Supra, Correct Craft, Malibu and MB. <BR>Board- Hyperlite, CWB, Ronix, Liquid Force and Obrien. <BR>Other- Fox, Oakley, Jet Pilot,Arnett, Dragon and Straightline. <BR> <BR>Company needs at least four pro riders on their team. Riders actually need to be part of the team, not just use the product. So if a guy buys a Malibu but isn't part of the "team" it doesn't count. Hey, there is no money or prizes just a fun thing to do so there so the rules aren't any big deal. Fox is stacked but Oakley and Jet Pilot are pretty good also.

What about Spy would they qualify?

Spy needs a team for sure- Parks, Shane, Harf, Sharpe, Tino, La Riche, &amp; OShea. They're stacked too. <BR> <BR>And Adam Errington should be included on Ronix's team, it would makes sense if you need to have 4 riders to have a team. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by mkrueger313 on May 07, 2007)

I put Adam on Ronix and thank you for Spy. I did give Arnett a pass on the 4 man rule cause Byerly is on there and well, the Godfather of wakeboarding/skating gets special treatment.

OK- _ went to the Spy web site and can not find wake team (or any team). How can I verify riders.

The team scores are in for Wake Games - Liquid Force wins with 463 points followed by Hyperlite, Jet Pilot and Fox. <BR> <BR>Boards- 1st-LF, 2nd-HL, 3rd-Ronix, 4th-CWB, 5th- Obrien, 6th-Gator and 7th-J Star <BR>Boats- 1-Correct Craft, 2-Supra, 3-MC, 4-Malibu, 5-Tige and 6-MB <BR>Accessories/Clothes-JP, Fox,Oakley, Straightline, Dragon, Arnette. <BR> <BR>I will do a full posting on a web site soon.

thanks Roger.

How do you figure that?

too much time on your hands perhaps? <BR> <BR>na jk.

Way too much time- And I wonder why they are offshoring our job?<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/lol.gif" border=0> It started off as a curiosity and well blossomed into a hobby. I take the tour points and give it to the riders' sponsors. This was difficult because of the number of riders and no posting yet. I know it is only about 90% accurate and when I can find a place to post it I know people will "help" me with my inaccuracies. <BR> <BR>Since there were over 60 pro men riders and only 15 pro wakeskaters and 12 pro women I decided to weight the scores. A wakeskater or woman could come in last in their only heat and score three times as many points as PM wakeboarder who made it through the first round. So I met with the board and we decided to count women and wskaters as half. <BR> <BR>Hyperlite 372.5 <BR>Jet Pilot 366 <BR>Liquid Force 353 <BR>Fox 302 <BR>Correct Craft 263 <BR>MC 223.5 <BR>CWB 219.5 <BR>Tige 219 <BR>Supra 203 <BR>Ronix 192 <BR>Malibu 183 <BR>Oakley 164 <BR>Straightline 115.5 <BR>Obrien 76 <BR>Gator 65 <BR>Dragon 40 <BR>Arnette 40 <BR>MB 36 <BR>J Star 18 <BR>Crue 12

Can you show the riders' points and who is on the team?

Spy's pro teams are listed on their myspace page <BR> <BR> <BR><a href="http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&amp;friendid =141441346" target="_blank">http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&amp;friendid =141441346</a> <BR> <BR> <BR>WAKE TEAM PLAYERS: <BR>Parks Bonifay <BR>Shane Bonifay <BR>Danny Harf <BR>Chad Sharpe <BR>Tino Santori <BR>Jimmy LaRiche <BR>Chris O'Shea <BR>Kyle Hyams <BR>Lauren Loe <BR>Melissa Marquqrdt

Thanks for the update: That gives Spy Optic the edge over Oakley. Parks and Danny didn't ride and Shane was the highest placer in 9th for 51 points. <BR> <BR>Hyperlite 372.5 <BR>Jet Pilot 366 <BR>Liquid Force 353 <BR>Fox 302 <BR>Correct Craft 263 <BR>MC 223.5 <BR>CWB 219.5 <BR>Tige 219 <BR>Supra 203 <BR>Ronix 192 <BR>Malibu 183 <BR>Spy Optic 173 <BR>Oakley 164 <BR>Straightline 115.5 <BR>Obrien 76 <BR>Gator 65 <BR>Dragon 40 <BR>Arnette 40 <BR>MB 36 <BR>J Star 18 <BR>Crue 12

Someone is having a little too much fun making databases! Great idea though
