AquaX is a brand name, which incorporates any type of PWC competition organised by P1. The AquaX platform includes two disciplines under the heading of Enduro and Sprint. Each discipline is then divided into Pro, Pro/Am or Amateur depending on the quality of field and the size of the entry. Check with your Series Administrator to find which disciplines and classes are offered in your area.

Sit down craft ( 2- 4 seaters) come under the ENDURO rules. Craft must remain stock, except for minor handling modifications. The craft are then classified by the horsepower i.e - 300hp – 200hp and riders are graded Pro and Amateur.
Sprint is all about the stand ups such as the Yamaha Superjet and the Kawasaki SXR and the single seaters such as the Yamaha EX/EXR and Sea-Doo Sparks. To keep cost to a minimum the technical rules are limited to handling with some minor engine modifications. Riders are graded Pro and Amateur.
The Pro Enduro class delivers a higher level of competition and exposure for the top ranking riders and race series sponsors. The Pro series is open to all makes and models of watercraft, though the rules will benefit and encourage the use of higher rated HP craft. Entry into the Pro Class is limited to riders with sufficient racing experience.
The rules will allow for a higher level of modification, upping the speeds of the race craft to in excess of 75mph. The race tracks reflect the improved ability of the competitor and provide stunning viewing for the spectator and the TV production. Check out the rulebook for more details at AquaX Rulebook
The AM Enduro class is open to all makes and models of watercraft, but unlike the Pro the series is split between 2 classes.
The Pro Sprint class is all about the stand ups - the original Jet Ski. The race courses are shorter and more technical than Enduro, creating a challenge even for the canniest rider. The technical rules are limited to handling with some minor engine modifications to keep costs down. Four-stroke craft produced by Kawasaki with an output of 160bhp and capable of speeds up to 60mph are currently the only watercraft to compete in the Pro Sprint Series. Check out the rulebook for more details at AquaX Rulebook
Single seater (Spark and EX/EXR craft) and Yamaha's new four-stroke Superjet come under the heading of Pro/AM Sprint. The technical rules are limited to handling with some minor engine mods to keep costs down. Check out the rulebook for more details at AquaX Rulebook
