Teaching kids how to ski

[DonWon]

My 7 year old daughter told me that she wanted to learn how to water ski about a month ago. Ironically, I stubled across a great program that is offered through our local water ski club called "Leaarn to Ski". The calss was $25 and well worth it. Also, I had the peasure of meeting @737driver on the ski team dock. His daughters were in the class as well.

great to see the kids get involved, we practiced with the rope and wakeboard on the ground (found instructions via you tube) and I really think it helped them understand what the feeling was going to be.

My daughter is always willing to try new sports. She's very motivated...I taught her how to snow ski when she was two. She kept calling the chair lift the "Big Swing". LOL

It was great running into another forum member, my girls can't wait for the next lesson. Now we just have to fit in some practice off the back of the boat. My oldest daughter just about has me talked into a tower and boom setup for the x230!

Thats awesome seeing your daughter starting off with the skiing lesson. I was mad for waterskiing in my younger days, and taught my two how to ski from a real young age, I hasten to say, they soon fell for the wake boarding bud. Apparently its cooler

Need to look around here in NC and see if there are skiing lessons here!

Yes...definitely check with your local ski club/team. It was seriously the best $25 that I've spent in a long time.
