Steve Lohr: Hi, I am Steve Lohr at Lohr's Lake in Sparta Virginia and today I am going to teach you how to Water Ski. From what equipment to use to body position to how to ski on the water. There are few things you will need before we get started. Most important is access to a suitable boat with a trained crew and driver. You will also need a safe venue such as a lake, river or other suitable waterway. A pair of water skis, an rope and handle, typically 75 feet in length and a wet suit if it's cold and properly fitted life jacket. Here are few safety tips before we get started. Wear a Coast Guard approved flotation device, know the basic safety signals, use equipment in a good condition and properly sized. Don't ski in your docks, other boats, shoreline or swimmers. Never put any part of your body through the handle or wrap the rope around your self in any way. When falling fall backwards or to either side and only ski with an experienced boat driver. Before we get started let me tell you a little bit about myself. I have been water skiing for over 50 years, I have been coaching for over 45 years. I have been a member of USA Water Ski for 43 years and have served on the Board of Directors, a member of American Water Ski Educational Foundation and assisted in the development of the national coaches program in Colorado Springs. Now that you know little bit about me, let's get started water skiing.

For those of you who are new to the game, these tips are not intented to coach players who already have a good stroke and use english in their pool game. Recently I have received some negative comments from those players who apparently do not understand english and most likely are not comfortable with their stroke. There are some fundamentals you must learn before attempting more advanced techniques such as; english, masse, jump shots etc... you can not build a house on sand, build your foundation first before moving on to your advanced game and "Good Luck" - Thanks for watching "Dean's Pool Tips." and is available on DVD at http://mypooltv.com
