The final stop of the 2016 Nautique Big Dawg World Tour, presented by O’Brien, concluded last Friday at Bell Acqua Lakes in Rio Linda, California. Jeff Rodgers, who started the season with a win at the West Palm Beach stop, finished strong with another victory in California. The former world-record holder ran 39 1/2 four times during his six rounds to the title, and also tied Greg Badal with the best score of the event (3 at 41 off). It’s likely that some of those early rounds took a toll on his endurance, however, because in the final head-to-head against David Miller, he left the door open with a score of 4 at 39 1/2 off. As the second skier off the dock, all Miller needed was a piece of five ball to take the title. His start was spot on. Early out of one and out of two. But his concentration was hijacked at three ball and he broke forward and lost the handle. The title was Rodgers.
