Practice Makes Perfect
Practice is very important to the success
of any ski team. The Aqua Addicts
practiced hard for three straight months
before they put on their first waterski show.
That show was only for practice and family
members. It wasn't until the next year that
they put one on for the general public. One
reason for this was to avoid happenstances like the one
visible at right -->
The practice paid off because the show was
good, not great but what could you expect
for a first year ski team. The following
year was much better and the shows have been
increasing in quality ever since.
The club was proud of how much, and how quickly
its members learned new tricks. The club
could brag that it had taught some members
how to ski at the beginning of one year and
how to barefoot off the boom (a metal pole
out the side of the boat) at the end of the
same ski season.
