How to get Started off safely
How to use the proper equipment properly and what to use. There are many different things you have to use and do properly before water skiing so the skier behind you does not get hurt or badly injured and so the driver does not ruin the boat motor. first thing your going to want to do is to have the water skier put on a life jacket to prevent drowning. After the skier has all his safety gear on he will then jump in the water while the boat engin is off and put on his ski and have possession of the the rope, now the rope your skier will be using with be at least 75 feet or longer and the rope is attached to a swinging bar high up on the boat so the rope doesn’t get caught on the water which can cause the rope to get slack and injure the skier behind the boat.. The driver will then proceed slowly in gear to tighten up the rope so the skier can get ready for skiing. When the skier has the rope tightened and is ready to go he will yell out GO! The driver will hit the throttle all the way so the boat can pull up the skier quickly without dragging he or she. These are just some tips to help you get started if you guys ever want to try it out one day.
