I'm doing a project on the three most important or influential wakeboard contests in history, and why. Right now I only have the Carnival down, what other contests stand out to everyone else?

Carnival most definetly for boardin.
For wakeskatin I would have to say the Toe Jams.
Then maybe for pool jams with both skatin and boardin through in the blacktop oasis 1 and 2.
All 3 have pushed all aspects of wakeing and they pretty much cover all most all aspects of wakeboarding except for freeriding. They should round out the project nicely.

Carnival, it had such a huge impact on contests and scoring. Brought it away from the trick skiing way of judging and brought it to the scoring system that is used today. HUGE impact on wakeboard contests and the idea of the rail park was concieved there. (which is now the Projects)
