Can anyone beat Phil Soven this year? He’s currently 3 for 4 on the Pro Wakeboard Tour, and after sharing that he hasn’t missed a switch crow mobe 540 in over two years, we have to wonder if anyone has a chance to beat him as the race to the end of the season draws near.

Kelowna knows how to put on an event, with a sell out crowd that has us wondering what’s missing from Pro Tour events in the US. Fans lined the shores and packed the beer garden to check out some of the best, and most competitive riding in the world.
Although Phil has proven himself on tour this year, a quick look at the standings shows him leading Rusty in 2nd place by only 10 points, which means the season finale in Portland is going to be the perfect finish to a year of great riding on tour. We’ll see you in Portland for the conclusion, along with a party that only the Pacific Northwest can put on.
