Default Water Skiers?

Do we have any here that like to bring your water skis along with you when you go camping on a nice lake? We have done this in the past but only when it is a good size lake and has plenty of room to ski on.

We're not much on water skiing. Although we have done it in the past, many years ago. I have seen some skiers on the large lakes that allow it and they are fun to watch (and to make sure you stay out of their way). Some are really good and ski on only one ski. Don't think I could do that!

Used to water ski all the time. Brother and I would get up early, haul our goal of 1000 bales of hay a day, (by hand) then go to the reservoir, water ski in the afternoon and switch to fishing in the evening. I would usually take a good swim across the reservoir in there sometime while brother followed in the boat. Sometimes friends would show up and join us.

Not here. Did it when I was younger (before kids) but am too afraid to try it with them. We're usually miles from help and even though we're always with a lot of people I have to put my foot down somewhere.

This is something I have never done but always wanted to try. Well in my younger days that is. Think I have finally got past it. Thankfully
