They're back again! The guys over at Aacadia.com bring you another entertaining episode of voice overs from the pro tour. This time we head to Kentucky for the Pro Tour where people discuss all sorts of funny things. Check it out. I wonder how the guys got microphones on everyone!

The top professional wakeboarders in the world took to the waters of Freeman Lake at Freeman Lake Park in Elizabethtown, Ky. today to kick off the third stop of the 2010 MasterCraft Pro Wakeboard Tour. The Pro Tour stop, which runs through Saturday, June 19, opened with preliminary rounds for the Pro Men and Jr. Pro Men divisions.

Among the 40 pros who competed in Elizabethtown today, was Austin Hair - a four-year veteran rider of the Pro Men division, who has found success on Tour this season and continues to impress.

"Right before the season began, I started learning some new tricks, training to become more consistent and just got into a groove from there," said Hair. "To ride with the top guys, you have be able to go big and 'throw hammers,' and that's what I've been doing so far this season."

The 22-year-old South Carolina native has made back-to-back appearances in the previous two Pro Men finals and currently sits in fourth place in the standings.

"My goal is to make the podium at this stop," said Hair. "This is a really tough contest. There's a lot of talent to compete against, but I'm feeling confident about this weekend."

Hair won his four-man heat today with a score of 83.33, a 13.33-point differential from his next closest competitor - one of the largest margins of victory of the day.

With today's win, Hair advances to tomorrow's quarterfinals where he will be joined by 19 other riders, including Phillip and Bob Soven. Both Soven brothers not only won their respective heats today, but also posted identical scores at 76.67 points.

The Pro Men are first off the dock tomorrow, beginning at 12 noon for the quarterfinal round.

In the Jr. Pro Men division, the top 20 amateur rippers on Tour hit the water for their quarterfinal round of action. Riders competed in five heats of four with only the top two athletes from each heat advancing, narrowing the field of competitors down to 10 for tomorrow's semifinals.

Among the 10 semifinalists is current Jr. Pro Tour leader Nick Galotifore. Galotifore, 18, of Orlando, Fla., won his quarterfinal heat today with a score of 94.00 and remains the top seed in the contest.

Fans packed the shores of Lake Moser at Texas MasterCraft today to catch the final rounds of action at the MasterCraft Pro Wakeboard Tour stop in Fort Worth. Riders spent the day battling it out behind the MasterCraft X-Star for wins in the Jr. Pro Men, Pro Men and Pro Women's divisions.

The Pro Men kicked off the final day of action with their quarterfinal round, where 20 riders hit the water in five heats of four. The quarterfinals cut the competition in half, only advancing the top two riders from each heat onto the semifinals.

The semifinals quickly narrowed down the field of riders to setup the six-man final, but not without a massive upset in the process. Aussie phenom and top-seeded rider, Harley Clifford failed to advance past the semifinals, placing fourth in his five-man heat.

The finals pinned Austin Hair, Bryan Hutton, Rusty Malinoski, Phillip Soven, Danny Harf and Olivier Derome against each other in the final round of action. All eyes were on the new top seed, Rusty Malinoski to see if he duplicate his 2007 Fort Worth winning-run, but fell short to two-time Pro Tour titlist Phillip Soven.

Soven's Backside 720 off the double up helped push the Florida native to the top of the contest podium, with Malinoski and four-time X Games gold medalist Danny Harf rounding out the top three, respectively.

"I rode really well, stuck my Back 7 and came out on top," said Soven. "I didn't expect to win; really thought Rusty [Malinoski] had it, but I ended up taking Fort Worth."

With the second stop of the 2010 season in the books, Soven and Malinoski are now tied at 180 points in the Pro Tour standings, with Soven taking the tie-breaker due to his win today. Harley Clifford now sits in third place with 160 points.

Soven's younger brother, Bob, lost to Phillip in their shared quarterfinal heat today, but beat him out in the Rockstar Energy Drink Big-Air Challenge. Bob Soven's massive Indy Backside 180 off the kicker earned him $1,000 for the winning trick. Texan Tom Fooshee and Phillip Soven rounded out the top three in the Challenge, respectively.

As top-seeded rider Dallas Friday sat out of the Pro Women's finals today, due to injury, all eyes were on the water to see which female standout would emerge victorious in the five-woman final.

Both former Rookie of the Year Raimi Merritt and former Australian Pro Tour champ Hayley Smith appeared to have the edge in the contest, but 2008 Queen of Wake Nicola Butler proved to be unstoppable in Fort Worth, taking her third straight win in the Lone Star State. Merritt and Smith rounded out the contest podium, respectively.

In the Jr. Pro Men's division, riders hit the water in two heats of five for their semifinal round. Only the top two riders from each heat advanced, sending Steel Lafferty, Kyle Evans, Nick Galotifore and Daniel Powers to the four-man final.

All four rippers threw down some series runs, but current Tour leader Nick Galotifore continued to impress the judges to win his second consecutive Pro Tour stop of the season. Lafferty and Evans rounded out the Jr. Pro Men's podium, respectively.
