WATERSKIING
Watch your skis seemingly consume water
as it goes in and out of wakes. Waterskiing is a
sport involving two—or one—skis where the
rider glides on the water while being pulled by
a boat. From cannonballs to chairs, these are a
few of the positions you may find yourself in
while enjoying this activity. Waterskiing is an
activity driven by momentum; therefore, if you
try to go over a wake slowly, look out for a
sure fall.
WAKEBOARDING
Exercise persistent balance as you take on
artificial waves while your feet are bound to
a board. Wakeboarding is a sport that involves
a person being pulled by a boat while gliding
through the water on a short, but wide
board. The bad news is that when you can’t find
balance, your board may slowly sink because
you may have stood up too quickly. The good
news is that when you do master your balance,
you can perform tricks such as an airborne,
180-degree turn.
