How Do You Learn To Water Ski?
Do you have trouble getting up on water skis? Learning how to water ski is not as easy as it looks. Here are some helpful tips for you to use if you seem to keep falling on your face instead of staying up on the skis! Step 1 Put on a life jacket, even if you know how to swim. You never know how the conditions will be in the water and a life jacket could save your life. Step 2 Get in the water. Depending on what’s easier for you, you can either put the water skis on before you get in the water, or after you are already in the water. Step 3 Once you’re in the water, have your skis on and are ready to go, be sure to keep the water skis as vertical as you can; and as close together as you can. Step 4 When you’re ready, make sure your elbows are bent. Let the power of the boat pull you up and out of the water. Do not try to pull yourself up, or you will fall. Step 5 Once you are up and out of the water, be sure to keep your knees bent.
