Learn How To Water Ski In Minnesota

By Lane \"Dawg\" Bowers

Water skiing is a fun and exciting summertime sport. It is just you, the sun, the water, the sparkle on the waves. Add a good fast ski boat and a pair of skis and you have the making of a really good and challenging sport to enjoy the beautiful outdoors. If you have friends who are with you, and your boat is strong you can join together to create great shows like they do on TV with the human pyramid which requires 25 very experiences skiers and they for a human pyramid while riding the waves.

Doing masterful tricks with other skiers is for the experienced skier and requires practice. Your job is to start out with the basic safety and skill required to stay upright on the water. It might be a good idea to take classes from an instructor who is practiced in the fine art of safe water skiing who can teach you the basics and the proper etiquette as well.

Before you learn how to water ski on the surface of water, you must learn the art of attaining the correct posture on land so that you do not take a toss the moment you enter the water. Lake City Minnesota has wonderful facilities for those who want to learn how to water ski.

You might want to think about planning your vacation around one of the water ski camps that are conducted at Lake City every summer. There are classes for all ages as well as all levels of expertise. Iave never met a child who did find the camps fun, exciting, and a great way to spend a week of their summer. The coaches give great beginner lessons, even if you donat know how to ski, by the time you leave you will look great on the water. Reports have it that there are some people claiming that these very instructors were able to get them skiing within the first hour; leaving the rest of the week for honing the skills being taught to be a really good water skier.

An experienced skier will love having a really fast boat, and loves gliding and hopping over the wake. They will usually use the deep water style to let the boat pull them up out of the water. Some of the trick is to relax in the water with the skis just peeking out of the water. They have the rope in hand, and their arms should be straight. As the rope tightens the experienced skier will let the boat pick up speed, gradually, before letting the rope lift out of the water. Gliding across the shiny blue waves, with the wind hitting you in the face, one canat help but grin. It is so much fun.

All too often a novice skier will try to get up out of the water too soon, before the boat has got enough speed up to keep him or her up and going in a smooth line. Fortunately the water is soft and as the skier falls back into the water he will experience frustration but no injury. What is important is to try again, and have fun. Listen to anyone that is more experienced in the fun art of this great water sport. Remember to keep the arms straight. Let your legs float at about a 45 degree angle in front of your body, shoulders pulled back. Ok now keep a positive attitude and remember this is about having fun.

Sometimes a beginning water skier will use a boom until he gets the feel of gliding on the water on two skis. When confidence is firmly enabled the skier will always want to switch over to a rope like the more experienced skiers. The rope is often shortened up for the novice and with a few successful starts the rope will be lengthened.

If you are trying to teach the little ones or learning how to ski the waterski boom is a great teaching tool. I think the most important things to remember is have fun, be patient with yourself and others, and remember to look around with wonder at how great it is to be able to water ski for fun.
