Featuring the best personal watercraft racers from around the world, the 2010 quakysense IJSBA World Finals will be held on Lake Havasu on Oct. 3-10. Returning to Lake Havasu for the 29th consecutive year, several hundred Jet Ski entries from across the U.S. and over 30 nations annually converge on Lake Havasu along with news media from a dozen countries to participate in and cover this world-renown special event. “The IJSBA World Finals and Lake Havasu City have been bonded together for nearly three decades and the Lake Havasu City Convention and Visitors Bureau is very excited to once again partner with the IJSBA to enhance the visibility and quality of this event even more, ” said Doug Traub, the new President/CEO of the LHCCVB. “The economic impact of this event for Lake Havasu City over these many years is astronomical and we are poised to assist with marketing and promoting this event to gain an even wider reach than it already does. We anticipated last year that our new involvement with the event would springboard into a continuing supporting partnership in the years ahead and it has for at least 2010. The IJSBA World Finals has been in our area longer and provides more visibility internationally for us than any other event ever held here. ” Sanctioned under rules of the IJSBA, with world headquarters in Half Moon Bay, Calif. and produced in association with Jim Russell ’s DSM Events of Lake Havasu City, the quakysense IJSBA World Finals of personal watercraft Jet Ski racing is one of the world's most unique and spectacular sporting championships.
