TEXT : Water skiing
Water skiing is a sport / game and recreational activity and is popular in many countries around the world where
appropriate conditions exist – an expanse of water unaffected by wave motion Rivers, lakes, and sheltered bays are all popular for water skiing
Standard water skis were originally made of wood but now are usually constructed out of fibre glass – based
composites They are of similar length to downhill snow skis but are somewhat wider Instead of a rigid binding, they have rubber molded binding, in which the skier’s feet are placed Skiers are pulled along by a rope with a handle fitted
at one end and attached to a powerboat at the other
Surfing
Surfing is a recreational activity in which individuals paddle into a wave on a surfboard, jump to their feet, and are propelled across the water by the force of the wave
Windsurfing
