    That’s incredible footage, especially the smoke off the exhaust.
    If its not a competition ski boat, its always second best.

      Holy smoke. Heck of a tradition right there.

      I like that older Ski Supreme. Those are good boats.

        That's awesome. I lived in Rochester for a few years so I understand the pain. Props to them

          Incredible dedication to tradition with that group.

            I thought we were nuts.

            Pretty sure they would welcome you, Oz!

              I cringed at the thought of hitting a piece of ice while barefooting at 40mph in freezing cold water...

                  You wouldn't feel a thing ! I'd hate the trepidation when I finished skiing and looked down to make sure my feet were still there and intact !

                        This is a great group of skiers. I used to ski with them (in the summer months). They taught me to barefoot and jump.

                          Holy Jeez.... I remember as a kid always rushing to be the first ones on our lake and the last one's off... which meant pushing the limits. But this completely redefines what I used to call "limits"!

                          We had snow on the beaches, and no access to dry suits back then, so it was still beyond what I'd do now, but man I love this video for just how much they push it to the point of absurdity if you ask me

                          Question in my head though... does the steam/exhaust vapor still feel "warm" given the extreme air temps, or more like ice/pellets? haha

                            It is a great group of people. I was skiing with the group of three trick skiers in the video (my daughter and her boyfriend). Sliding off the ice or snow shore is fun. We put together a video for the Superbowl when it was in Minnesota complete with some pyramids that is also on Youtube. Ball valves on everything along with tygon tubing with valves to fill the coolers with hot water and also soften the bindings is a huge benefit. The Ski Supreme is the owners winter boat and he has a nice Malibu Flightcraft for summer.

                              Great feedback. Always fun to get first-hand commentary. That Supreme is a tough workhorse. I think it is a close spin-off of Mastercraft (which is a good thing). You guys are tough as nails.

                              Thanks for the comment.
