0 Comments

 
Thanks to the hospitality of Ski Klub of Indianapolis, the third Monday Night Ski League was a super success.  A better weather situation offered the 9 guest skiers the opportunity to ski.  Members Lance Black and Tom Silnes provided both dry land and water based coaching for the skiers.  Thanks to SKI members Dan Federspill, Dave Zink, and Kim Black, for  making all feel welcome.  Next Monday Night Ski League will be at Emerald Lake.

Father's Day Tribute!

6/15/2015

0 Comments

 
Happy Father's Day to all you fathers out there from IWSA!   We all admire both the ability and low key attitude of Indiana's own Nate Smith.  Let's not forget the man behind the scene.  Happy Father's Day to Kevin Smith......father of Nate Smith.  Same great skiing ability, same low key personality, certified driver and judge.   Kevin skied into 39' off at the Saturday, June 13th tournament held at Sawmill Lake near Columbus, Indiana.  And....he did this still skiing on his tried and true, glued together,  Goode 9500 named Ouchie!

2015 Sawmill Lake Tournament!

6/15/2015

0 Comments

 
The first sanctioned tournament of the 2015 season is now in the record books.  It was Scott Tynan weather although the sun was too bright in the morning!  The first skier off the dock got the luckiest break of the day.  Tom Sims made his opener but on his return pass the sun/glare made 3 ball and 5 ball impossible to see.  He was allowed a re-run and he finished his complete runs in one direction each pass and spinning back to point of beginning for each successive pass.  Also take into consideration that each of his "non-glare" passes was also into a slightly favorable head wind!  SlimTom Sims skied his personal best by running 3 @ 35' off.  The tournament was then delayed for approximately 1 hour until the angle of the sun changed and there was no more glare.  Tom was the envy of all the rest of the skiers of the day!   The conditions of the day included a constant head/tail wind which made planning your runs a challenge.  Did'nt seem to bother some skiers including Indiana's own Nate Smith who ran 1 @ 43' off multiple times.  Next week...Silent Shores.

Monday Night Ski League Update

6/9/2015

The second Monday Night Ski League was a little light in attendance probably due to an all day rain.  The sun god blessed the Fairland Ski Club with oodles of sunshine at about 5:00 and those who attended enjoyed the placid waters of Fairland Ski Club.  Thanks to the club members who helped drive and coach.  All participants got to ski a couple of sets before we pulled the boat out.  Next week....Ski Klub of Indianapolis at Shelbyville.

Monday Night Ski League - Update

6/2/2015

0 Comments

 
It was a c-o-l-d June 1st but that didn't stop the water skiers from appearing for the first Monday Night Ski League of the season.  Granted....we did see some rubber (wet suits and shorties) but the spirits and skiing were top notch.  Here's hoping that the next Monday Night Ski League to be held June 8th at the Fairland Ski Club will be warmer

2015 SPRING FLING - Its a Wrap!

6/1/2015

0 Comments

 
The weatherman predicted rain and doom and gloom.  The reality was a perfect sunny day for the 2015 season water ski opener "Spring Fling" held at Brewski Lake in Indianapolis.  Approximately 40 skiers enjoyed the glass like conditions pulled by the Silver Spray Sports/Brian Detty's Ski Nautique and later in the day the Master Craft Team/Neal Clark.  Burgers, brats, hot dogs, drinks, and and the fixins' were all provided by Indiana Water Ski Association.  Thanks to Skier's Edge and Sun Valley Sports for bringing out water sports goods for people to try and purchase.  Also thanks to all the helpers who made this event a success.  It was especially rewarding to see numerous youngsters attending and participating.
