How to prevent injuries

Things you should consider before getting in the water, first off of course as I mentioned before in my recent blogs always check and make sure all your gear is properly equipped and secure, what I mean as in secure is double check and see if there are any sign of wear on the binding on your ski boot or if there are any tears or rips in your life jacket. And most importantly very important to look and see if there any damages on the rope such as knots signs of fray on the rope or sliced twirls’ on the rope as well. All of these tips can save you from breaking bones on causing other types of injuries. The reason why I think this is very important to do before you start water skiing is because a few years back I went up north to a cottage where water skiing is very good and we did a lot of it, well one of my friends broke a leg because the binding on the boot had started to tear majorly and got worse when she started going and all that pressure was being put on it causing it to rip severely which caused her to slip out of the boot and fall awkwardly and she ended up breaking a leg. Yes it was a freak accident but it happens always make sure your gear is secure to use thanks for reading this.
