The format for the men’s and women’s competition on Friday was a combined two heats to move on to the next round where the finals would be a knockout series. The Reno River Festival saw recors numbers not only in attendance but in number of boaters entering the competition. The competition was stiff throughout the 6 hour day of sun and heat. Below is video of the top rides from the men and women. It was encouraging to see more than the top dogs competing with the possibility of moving on to the next day’s invitational. Top 3 results are below, these lucky few moved onto the invitational today. Full results to come.
