Orlando Watersports Complex<br />

hosted its first King of the Groms<br />

competition. The first contest in cable<br />

wakeboarding to focus on youth<br />

in the sport, King of the Groms gave<br />

young, upcoming wakeboarders a<br />

platform to battle it out in the ultimate<br />

grom showdown. The<br />

format consisted of three<br />

rounds with 7-minute<br />

heats per division.<br />

Thirty riders ages<br />

8-16 from six states,<br />

and even a couple of<br />

riders from England,<br />

competed in the inaugural<br />

event. Ten-yearold<br />

Gavin Stuckey of<br />

Orlando won finals in<br />

the Grom Pro (16-under)<br />

division, as well as the<br />

win in the kicker contest.<br />

“Our OWC team is<br />

thrilled to host this event,<br />

which provides an opportunity<br />

for up-andcoming<br />

wakeboarders,”<br />

said Bill Yeargin, CEO<br />

of Correct Craft, a subsidy<br />

of Aktion Parks, which owns and<br />

operates OWC. “The young talent in<br />

wakeboarding is amazing — the future<br />

of the sport is bright.”<br />
