Lets Talk About Waterskiing
From Ancient Egypt to South Dakota lakes,
pyramids are always an amazing sight. The
Aqua Addicts were building pyramids on regular
combo sets until '95 when they got their
first sets of double-wides. Double-wides
were a Godsend! Since that fateful day the
Aberdeen Aqua Addicts have put up three tier
pyramids pre-built pyramids, and even an
inverted pyramid or two. In 1998 the Aberdeen
Aqua Addicts put up their first successful
four tier pyramid. The Aqua Addicts currently
perform two four tier pyramids.
The shows that the Aqua Addicts
put on for the public would not be possible
without the boat drivers. We would like to
thank them for all their hard work, and then tease them a little, ha ha! Our boat drivers are nice guys at the beginning
of the day but they have been known
to say "Not on MY boat" or "Not
as long as I'M driving," and often with
good cause considering the level of insanity
some of our skiers possess. We would like
to thank them for putting up with us and
driving the boat.
The Aqua addicts picked up their first hydrodyne Feb., 1998 at Think Tank. It was a treat for the team to have a boat with some More power! In the Spring of 1999 the Aqua Addicts picked up its first inboard. The Addicts enjoyed their new toy "The Malibu". Since then the Aqua Addicts have also acquired a Moomba to enhance their shows.
2006 brought a new first for the Aqua Addicts; and perhaps show skiing in general. The Aberdeen Ethanol plant converted the team's first Malibu to an E85 powered craft. The E85 Malibu has become the fastest boat in the Aqua Addict fleet!
