Lake Koocanusa hosting BC Wakesurf Provincials

Wakesurf competitors from across B.C. will be flocking to Lake Koocanusa to take part in the 2025 BC Wakesurf Provincial Championships later this month.

The competition is set for Saturday August 16 at Koocanusa Village

“We are so excited to bring wakesurfers of all ages and abilities together for the BC Provincial Championships,” says Provincials organizing committee member Loree Duczek. 

“Whether you are a new or experienced rider, we are working hard to build the stoke for the sport of wakesurfing and this event is an amazing way to bring the whole surf community together for one epic day of riding and fun.”

Registration is open now until August 11.

“All riders must register in advance and there will be no late registrations, so it’s important all riders get signed up by the 11th,” added Duczek.

The public is encouraged to come out and cheer on the athletes.

“There will be prizes for athletes, a food truck on site, and games on the beach. The public is invited to stop in and check out the incredible riding Saturday,” Duczek added.

“We hope to have a video feed set up on the beach, so bring a lawnchair and join us in cheering on all the athletes throughout the day.”

The registration link can be found here.
