People don’t do this sport anymore. My dad did this sport when I was a kid down in Wellington fl. There is no money in that sport. Luckily my dad started buying properties in Guanacaste Costa Rica and Antioquia Colombia and we own several hotels and a private airport to support our family. Soaring isn’t bad because you can compete world wide in different soaring competitions and train people. I also think opening an indoor pickleball center wouldn’t be bad if you were in a good area and had a bar and showers. I haven’t played pickleball yet because here in the Andes mountains there are no courts. I go to the United States often but my visa ran out but when I get it updated I plan to play some pickleball.

The ski don't make the skier the skier makes the ski! Only the elite will feel the benefit of a ski and for the rest it's just placebo.

Skiing kills my back, thanks for the tips.

Would have been nice to see him first ski the HP, then the Goode. New ski's are obviously better, but it's rare to have a magical improvement on the first set. It takes time, tinkering and your own body's adjustment for the benefit to show up in bouy count. Skis now are so much like tuning a guitar, it's got to be perfect for the sound you are after and style of your play.

Jet skis always show up at the wrong time!!

Unlike a lot of other instructional videos, you intersperse actual action footage with the instructions. This is very helpful to listen and watch. Thanks.

Leza, you are my new idol! I'm 59 years young and working on improving every season. ❤

Hmm, I can’t do it as smooth as you. But, I am doing it at sea where there are waves…

I was about to make a comment about what a tool this guy is, but then I saw his dance moves, and now I have nothing but mad respect. Ha ha. What up Todd!

Spot on Todd as always

🎉🎉👍👍👍

👋👋👋

One last question. What color bands are you using at 36:00? I can't tell from the video where the waterski handle rope ends and the bands begin. Is that the blue band? Are they the same bands at about 40:45?

Starting at about 26:00 is that just a regular waterski handle/rope that you have have attached to bands? Or is that specifically a waterski handle band? I looked at the Serious Steel items on AZ but they only have really small handles for one hand.

Great content keep it up. Need views? -> 'Promo SM'!!

We need more interviews Todd! Would love to know more!

Wearing a calf condom,,sad sight

Gidday,Great Vid When you have made your pull out what q do you use to turn in for the gates

So he went from a 20-year old ski to a seven-year old ski? Ummmm... yeah.

I saw the Connelly and got excited thinking it was a new retro look ski 😂

New to your channel 🤙🏼🤙🏼

I got it man, thank you. I may have to visit Orlando and take a quick lesson I’ve been on a slalom since 1972 I’m still learning

Can you list the exercises in the comments

As a short duration anaerobic/power sport it's a bit of a stretch to think that caloric output in water skiing factors in at all. It's like measuring caloric output of an Olympic lifter. Now if you really want some relevant numbers, figure out a way to measure force output or watts during a pass. Other than crunching data from a load gauge on a rope I have no idea how one would actually do that, however.

todd what did you mean our initial move our hips drop back?how do you do that?it appears you lean so far then sit down or soften your legs allowing your coore to get completly off the ski.

How to get up first time

We’ve been banned from skiing they don’t think it counts as a sport in Australian COVID restrictions

Huge video! Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge with us!! Can you make a video of what is it required to do great edge changes and powerful turns? I could provide you with videos of how not to do it haha.

Who is that hottie Gloria ?? Nothing better than beautiful women skiers

34 or 36 mph? You always make it look so easy!

I enjoyed your video clip. Come and visit my channel.

I bet you burned more calories than your Apple watch is telling you. I can be on the treadmill for 30 minutes (minimum of 4mph carrying barbells) and only get credit for 10-15 minutes of exercise. I am sure it doesn't account for the entire body workout you are getting. I enjoy most of your videos, but I sure do miss the mag! Best wishes Todd.

lovely content

Shake the Hips Out should be a much bigger part of this warm up! LOL Seriously though, we were just talking about doing a short yoga set before our morning runs this summer - your video is a great guide! @ridiculousboating @wakejustice

I was hoping for a serious video about ski focused workouts. 😞

Hey Swerve Master T... wondering if Gordon would let you put the other songs on your channel???

Great tips! Thx man. Can‘t wait to start the saison
