Michigan Coordinator here - contact the state coordinator and spend a few minutes on the phone. The website will let you know the tour standings. You can see how many people you will be up against.

Best advice: RELAX and have fun. Show up early and talk to the other riders. They will let you know what is up. Here in MI, nobody really talks trash to the new guys. Their friends, heck yeah, but not the new guys.

I am confused as to how they do they scoring, it looks like on this rankings sheet, one expert invert would beat everyone. surely thats not right? http://www.intleague.com/arkansas/tour_standings.asp

for each division you can only score a certain trick point max value.And you can only do tricks in the intmerdiate /advanced trick list.If you throw a trick from a higher division you will probably get bumped. I am new to INT this year in the masters division,It's fun but don't rush anything. And don't repeat tricks in the same pass or you don't get points for the repeated trick.You can do the same pass down and back. Hope this helps......

ya dude, you should definatly compete cuz its a whole lot of fun! theres no pressure, you just go out and ride and like Karl said just go out and talk to the people that you are riding againgst, I think there are like 5 or 6, maybe a little more, but I will help you out with some stuff if we go to the lake this weekend. and I think we will be going to lake Degray this weekend so you can email me at, wakeboard_102@hotmail.com, and just see like what time we will be there and stuff like that
