Well that's by far the most fun thing I've seen all day! He looks so comfortable back there. What speed were you running?

Nicely done. Start ‘em young. Meanwhile, his friends are tubing.

Great run for that young man! He's got a future ahead of him. I liked the way he was trying to stand up a little more toward the end. His back must have been feeling it.

Hate pulling tube lol. Anyway he is on a show ski team so has been working on barefooting, jumping, etc. Been fun couple of summers. My 9yr old does pretty good on skis as well. Thanks for the kind words. Matt

Matt, Thanks for sharing. It's always great to see our next generation being pulled on anything besides a damn tube. ![]() |

Very nice, the kid's a machine! Looks like he did it in some choppy water too. |

With you on the tube....we rarely use the tube unless we have some guests that have kids that is all they want to do. Otherwise I always offer up the boom and start some them skiing. Matt

I have never barefooted, but I like to ski. He's a pretty determined young kid, hard for me to say no when he wants to go skiing. Again thanks for the kind words everyone. Matt
