i like IFT....also maybe world skiing tour (WST for short)...
you dont need a stupid name, just something like the surfers WCT....it also allows people from the public to know what the fuck the event is!!! no shame in copying surfing its worked for them...
Another thing, do you think that if the world tour happened that the "stops" should be events that have been running for the last few years e.g nippon, US open etc.......or get a system that uses same judges, same format etc etc?? just a thought! The stops should be all around the world i think....one or two in North America, 2 in Europe, 1 in scandinavia, NZ, maybe australia, Japan etc.
