This was one of those perfect mornings at Hobe Lake. There was a slight head and tail wind, beautiful blue skies, a few puffy clouds—ideal skiing conditions. I had to pinch myself as a reminder about how lucky we are to be part of such a great sport.

Obviously, water skiing in itself is fantastic but there is so much more to this game—the time we spend outdoors, the friendships that evolve and all the good times we have are some of my favorites…

Fun! This is probably number one for me. Even though we take skiing very seriously and are on a constant quest to get better, reminding ourselves that we all started this because we truly enjoy water skiing can help in times when things are not going as well, and it can keep us from taking things too seriously.

Keep ripping it up! We’ll see you at the lake!
