| Quote: | Kyle Rattray, Sunni-Anne Ball and Anthony Hollick big winners at Canadian wakeboard championships
Aug 21, 2005
MONTREAL-Kyle Rattray of Guelph, Ont., continued his breakthrough season on Sunday with gold medal performances in the men’s open and men’s 19 and over category to conclude the Canadian wakeboard championships.
Rattray, 20, had already made a strong impression in his first full season as a senior level pro competitor this season capped by a fourth place finish at prestigious Wakestock event last week in Toronto. He is now eyeing nothing less than gold at the world championships next month in Moscow.
“Everything came together for me today and I’m really pumped about being the Canadian champion,” said Rattray. “I followed my plan to a tee and it appears everything for me is going in the right direction. I’m ready to go all out at the worlds.”
In the women’s open event, Sunni-Anne Ball of King City, Ont., reclaimed the title she won in 2003 finishing first. Ball was ranked sixth this year on the Wakeboard Tour ranking.
“I didn’t ride very well but it was enough to win,” said Ball, 20, also headed to the worlds. “If I can land my run properly then I think it is good enough to win at the worlds.”
In the men’s junior final, Anthony Hollick of Regina claimed his first national title.
“I wasn’t sure how I would do but I pulled through,” said Hollick, 19. “I landed my stuff, I was concentrating well and I had fun, which is mot important for me. I had an opportunity to train this year with some big names in the sport this year in Florida and that’s really helped.” |
