Sorry to change the topic steve, but why the **** is there 2 different world title tours/series??? It almost seems some euro riders go " I can't beat hadlow and co so i'll go on the KPWT and win some events there." Seb garrat is a pretty sic rider (As i've seen in Kiteboarder) and i don't want to take that away from him, but why can't we just have 1 tour and let the braggin rights go 2 1 rider. Is there a world freestyle comp? Thoughts any1?

You won't get a conclusive or sensible answer to this, there isn't one. There are heaps of reasons why there are two tours, but mostly it's because two separate tours, with their own different ways of judging (PKRA is more rider judged so I am told) and in different locations (some areas are cheaper for some riders to get to than others) grew up at the same time.

Ooooo, it's a rich tapestry.
