PWA World Tour 2012 Event Schedule

Tuesday 10th January, 2012 - 9:17am

The PWA published their Provisional PWA 2012 Tour Schedule / Event Calendar . A new men-only Slalom event in Marseille, France, is penciled-in for June, and last season's opener in Vietnam (Freestyle and Slalom) is moved to the end of the year for a Grand Slam season finale.

In recent seasons the German venue has hosted the traditional year end Freestyle or Slalom World Title prizegiving. Trophies will now be awarded at Mui Ne, Vietnam, but the Super Grand Slam at Sylt still boasts the highest earnings on offer.

The PWA stated that Vietnam was scheduled for mid-March, but that 'due to delays in the confirmation of funding for the event, it has now been postponed until the end of the season'.

They also mentioned that Cabo Verde is not on the current schedule but that negotiations are ongoing with the Government there and that, if green-lighted, an event will likely be short-notice to go ahead with a holding period before the middle of March.

Otherwise, so far it looks like the same 4 [port tack] Wave events, 7 Slalom events (7 men / 5 women) and 7 Freestyle contests (7 men / 5 women).

As yet, there is no mention of which contests will have live streaming.
