I’m a grandma but I still love to ski!! Been skiing since 6 yrs old, Daddy wanted me to be the next Kristi Overton, LOL!!

[@shawnweston4741]

Very exciting sport to watch.i like comparing the amount of water thrown between water skiers and surfers.think the water skier wins.possibly because skis are a lot thinner than surfboards and they can really dig that rail in.

[@Senna-xi1gr]

When can we get back on the water? Missing skiing so much & boarding

[@VillainState]

I'm a KZbinr who likes water skiing.You can watch a lot of amateur water skiing videos if you come to the Inner Circle.

[@emilyaustin8472]

Great

[@TheXanUser]

kind of surprised the drivers/boats haven't been replaced in tournaments with robots by now.

[@stephenj5505]

Tough on the knees though. I was a teenage water warrior .

3 tree water ski disciplines? There are more than that, racing to name one!

[@agatawahyu2361]

hello, can i use your video on my TV Program channel? i am a one of the creative team at TRENDING TRANS7 and of course your channel youtube's name will published too i'm waiting for your feedback, thank you..

Hi I am 15 years old and have been skiing for a while now. I am at the stage where I am getting some good cuts in, however my boat is not a slalom boat and it creates a wake. Any tips?

[@madisonnicole3205]

I'm no pro but I think that that'd help make you a stronger skier. You have to work extra hard to get there. I used to have a Sea Ray until about one or two weeks ago we got a Mastercraft but yeah it's a huge difference. I had to get used to the new wake.

[@pat5225]

A big wake is no fun and my daughter complains about the big wake behind our boat. We stopped complaining about the wake after watching a video of a girl going back and forth through a huge wake with almost no trouble at all... Search youtube for this video - "Turning Slalom - 5-hour ENERGY® Athlete Thomas Degasperi"

[@igoski1582]

The only real remedy is trading in your non ski boat in for a water ski tournament boat. It doesn't have to be a new one. Used boats still work.

[@sar6320]

Look for your local Waterski club or USA Wasterski tournaments and clinics. You might also find a college that you can ski with on their tournaments on their B team.

[@alanair7019]

Keep ridin that wake. It'll make you have better control when you have a propper ski boat. I did when i was young nowt i can handle most wake skiing.

[@alanair7019]
