Have you ever been barefoot water-skiing? It’s just
like normal water-skiing, being pulled along behind a boat at 40 mph – but
without any skis! It sounds scary but it’s amazing! My cousin used to take me
water-skiing, and that’s where I first learnt to stand up and balance. But I
moved on to barefooting when I did it for a laugh with some mates. And I loved
it!
Barefoot water-skiing is one of the most popular
watersports there is – to watch, anyway! When someone jumps really high and
then lands, it’s awesome. And you don’t need expensive stuff like boards,
although a wetsuit’s a good idea. But catching your toes on things in the lake
can hurt. I guess you can’t help getting water up your nose when you start
learning, too, as you have to lie almost flat in the water before you pull
yourself up – but it’s OK.
Although not much equipment is needed, it isn’t cheap.
If your feet hit something in the water, it’s painful.
If you start in the wrong position, you breathe in water.
