ezDrive Thruster, designed specifically for active wake surfing, wakeboarding and watersports and other small boat enthusiasts, is again sponsoring the World Wake Association’s (WWA) women’s division at Nautique USA National Wakesurf Championships. 2023 marks the third year of ezDrive Thruster’s sponsorship and supporting WWA’s mission of promoting and growing competitive wake sports around the world.


WWA’s women’s initiatives focus on increasing attention and participation of female contestants to compete in the sport. ezDrive is also the official sponsor of the WWA’s 2023 Malibu Rider Experience/WWA Regional Championships as well.


ezDrive Thruster is a compact, powerful, energy efficient thruster that puts small boat enthusiasts in total control of their wake surf, wakeboard and watersports boats. It allows users to U-turn in under 10 seconds to pick up downed riders for increased swimmer safety, easier maneuvering, docking/trailering and provides fuel savings of 30%.



The 2023 Malibu Rider Experience/WWA Regional Championships dates are:

  • Central: April 15-16 – Marble Falls, Texas

  • South: April 22-23 – Guntersville, Alabama

  • West: June 2-3 – Hurricane, Utah

  • North: July 9-10 – Laconia, New Hampshire

The women’s division at Nautique USA National Wakesurf Championships will take place July 27-30 in Pine Mountain, Georgia.


As part of its Worldwide dealer network expansion, ezDrive Thruster is also sponsoring WWA events in Europe as part of the Boats Rider Experience Jr. Pro Women Series:

"ezDrive Thrusters is committed to supporting women in the sport of wake sports,” said Anthony Valiente, COO & Managing Partner of The Yacht Group. “The Jr. Pro Women's Division is a foundation for younger generations to follow. In addition, our support of international events is a testament to ezDrive and the sport's continued growth outside the U.S.


“At ezDrive Thrusters, we continue to enhance the boating experience for wake surf, wakeboard and other related watersports, through our evolving technology,” he continued. “We believe supporting the WWA's efforts, and further exposure of ezDrive thrusters in the European market will advance both of our organizations."


For extreme performance and safety, ezDrive Thrusters are ignition protected, and use advanced technology such as waterproof cabling and connections, military grade components such as the IP 69K illuminated joystick, vibration absorption, noise reduction materials, special mounting hardware and water flow nozzles with protective grates.
