There are two changes that require some explanation. Rule 8.15 Revision - This update has been necessary because we are dealing with the introduction and adoption of new technology in the form of Boat Path Measurement Systems (BPMS), specifically SurePath which is now providing detailed data on Boat Path performance which has simply not been available before. It is clear from this data and the recent practical experience in competitions that a further modification to the rule was necessary. Data will continue to be monitored throughout this season and if any further changes are considered necessary these will be done as part of the annual Rules review process at the end of the year. Rule 10.11 Revision - The use of Surepath has again provided significant data on boat path during jumping. With the current rule stipulating a “straight path” it doesn’t allow the driver to compensate for the skiers pull to the ramp thus creating a potentially unsafe scenario.

IWWF will not invite or allow the participation of Russia and Belarus athletes and officials in all IWWF approved events. b. IWWF will not approve any event in Russia or Belarus. All IWWF Confederations and affiliated Federations are required to comply with this resolution. This decision aligns with the International Olympic Committee’s recent recommendation. The IWWF is appalled by the war in Ukraine and its impact on innocent athletes, and deeply regrets that they are caught in this situation. The IWWF is looking forward to a speedy resolution of the conflict after which these athletes and officials will be welcomed back. ## 24Feb22 Minutes from the Water Ski Council meetings are now available [Minutes Part 1](http://www.iwsf.com/dbheadlines/headlinefiles/WSC%20minutes%20part%201.pdf) [Minutes Part 2](http://www.iwsf.com/dbheadlines/headlinefiles/WSC%20minutes%20part%202.pdf) ## 17Feb22 Bulletin 1 for the 2022 IWWF World Over-35 Waterski Championships, to be held in Baurech, France from September 12 - 18, 2022 has been released [Bulletin 1](https://iwwf.sport/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Bulletin-1-2022-IWWF-World-Over-35-Worlds-FINAL-160222-.pdf) [Event web site](https://iwwf.sport/over35worlds2022/) ## 14Jan22 Joel Poland GBR aand Jacinta Carroll AUS named waterskiers of the Year [](http://www.iwsf.com/dbheadlines/headlinephotos/JoelandJacinta.jpg) [More...](http://www.iwsf.com/dbheadlines/showarticle.php?id=1460) ## 15Dec21 The October 2021 Ranking List is now available at [www.iwsftournament.com](http://www.iwsf.com/www.iwsftournament.com) As a special consideration for Covid, the October ranking is based on the single best performance rather than the average of the best two. ## 24Nov21 New World Record approved - Jacinta Carroll AUS first woman to jump over 200 ft Skier: Jacinta Carroll Round: 3 Score: 61.3m Tournament: MasterCraft Pro Date: 31 October 2021 Venue: Lake Grew, Polk City, FL, USA [Read more about it here](https://iwwf.sport/jacinta-carroll-first-woman-to-jump-over-200-feet/) ## 23Nov21 Charlie Ross CAN has 3 U17 World Records approved **IWWF World Under-17 Slalom Record** Skier: Charlie Ross Round: 1 Score: 1.25@58/10.25 Tournament: Holy Cow Cup Date: 25 September 2021 Venue: Lake Grew, Polk City, FL, USA **IWWF World Under-17 Slalom Record** Skier: Charlie Ross Round: 3 Score: 1.50@58/10.25 Tournament: Holy Cow Cup Date: 26 September 2021 Venue: Lake Grew, Polk City, FL, USA **IWWF World Under-17 Slalom Record** Skier: Charlie Ross Round: 2 Score: 2.00@58/10.25 Tournament: Swiss Fall Classic Date: 10 October 2021 Venue: Swiss Waterski Resort, Clermont, FL, USA [Read More about it](https://iwwf.sport/24814-2/) ## 21Nov21 Joel Poland GBR has a new World Overall Record approved by the IWWF Waterski Council Tournament: 2021 IWWF World Championships Venue: Sunset Lakes, Okahumpka, FL, USA Round: 1 Score: 2660.12 - (2.00@58/10.25 - 69.00m - 11620p) Date: 14 October, 2021 [Read More here](https://iwwf.sport/joel-polands-world-overall-record-approved/) ## 13Oct21 2021 Visit Lake County Florida IWWF World Waterski Championships are now under way [Live Stream video of the World Championships](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLhrSN8bTT1CCpZS9YnCeCyBS1hS1_lMYN) ## 02Oct21 Waterski Council approves new Men's World Overall Record by Dorien Llewellyn CAN Skier: Dorien Llewellyn Round: 1 Score: 2590.41 - (2.50@58/10.75 - 70.00m - 11610p) Tournament: Fluid Fall Record Date: 4 September 2021 Venue: Lake Grew, Polk City, FL, USA [Read about it on iwwf.sport](https://iwwf.sport/llewellyn-sets-new-world-open-waterski-overall-record/) ## 29Sep21 IWWF Ranking List updated The updated Open division May 2021 ranking will be used for seeding at the World Championships [May 2021 Ranking List](http://www.iwsf.com/wrl_0421/index.htm) ## 28Sep21 Minutes from the September 14 Waterski Council Meeting are now available [Waterski Council Minutes](http://www.iwsf.com/dbheadlines/headlinefiles/WSC%20Minutes_14September2021.pdf) ## 03Sep21 2021 IWWF World Waterski Championships Bulletin 2 is now available The IWWF is pleased to announce that Bulletin 2 for the 2021 IWWF World Waterski Championships, to be held in Lake County, Florida at the Jack Travers Water Ski School from October 12-17, 2021, has been released and is available for download here: <https://iwwf.sport/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/2021-IWWF-World-Waterski-Championships-Bulletin-No-2-FINAL.pdf> ## 28Aug21 World 2021 U21 Championships completed Team Champions 1.

The event was originally scheduled to be held at Baurech Lake in France in September 2020 and then rescheduled to September 2021. This decision was made in consultation with the event organiser, IWWF President, IWWF European Confederation President, IWWF World Waterski Council and IWWF Medical Committee. With the global pandemic still affecting international travel, current quarantine requirements in France for some countries which will impact participation significantly and the uncertainties of organising an event in 3-months time, it was decided that cancelling the event is the best course of action, following IWWF’s social responsibility philosophy and to ensure the well-being of organizers and athletes. The next IWWF World Over-35 Waterski Championships are scheduled to be held in 2022 and the host and venue will be announced in due course. ## 31May21 Final lists of individual qualifiers for the World U17 and U21 are now available [IWWF 2020 U-17 World - List of Individual Qualifiers](http://www.iwsf.com/dbheadlines/headlinefiles/IWWF%20U-17%20World%20-%20List%20of%20Individuals.pdf) [IWWF 2021 U-21 World - List of Individual Qualifiers](http://www.iwsf.com/dbheadlines/headlinefiles/IWWF%20U-21%20World%20-%20List%20of%20Individuals.pdf) Any issue should be adressed to Candido Moz - mozc@live.com ## 30May21 The May 2021 Ranking list is now available at [www.iwsftournament.com](http://www.iwsftournament.com/) ## 25May21 World U17 and U21 Intent to Enter deadline moved to June 5 The delay is due to the hybrid ranking list used for individual selection not being available yet. ## 22May21 Provisional lists of individual qualifiers for the World U17 and U21 are now available [U21 Individual Qualifiers (provisional)](http://www.iwsf.com/dbheadlines/headlinefiles/U-21%20Individuals-provisional.pdf) [U17 Individual Qualifiers (provisional)](http://www.iwsf.com/dbheadlines/headlinefiles/U-17%20Individuals-provisional.pdf) ## 21May21 Waterski Council meeting minutes now available The Waterski Council minutes from its recent meeting are now available [Part 1](http://www.iwsf.com/dbheadlines/headlinefiles/Minutes%20May%202021.pdf) [Part 2](http://www.iwsf.com/dbheadlines/headlinefiles/WSC%20Minutes%20May%2021%202021.pdf) An important change that is effective immediately was made regarding the rope release as follows: Recent competitions have shown the release person deliberately using the rope release (1m rope) to help the skier. This was never the intention of the rule change in 2019. It was decided unanimously to reinstate in rule 15.12 the wording “The release person may not adjust or move the rope in any way to take up slack or allow extra length. He must hold it in one position or release it. Using the rope to intentionally aid the skier will subject the skier to disqualification”. This unanimous decision will be posted on May 21st and come into immediate effect. ## 07May21 Waterski Council replaces Elite Rankings with Pro Tour The Elite Rankings were established in 2003 and continued through 2020.

One important decision is that skiers would at least retain their 2019 ranking position in the 2020 rankings. The effect of this is that the actual ranking number assigned may not be in sequential order but nevertheless that is the official ranking.
