65th Bart's Indiana State Water Ski Championships

7/29/2014

0 Comments

 
The 65th Bart's Indiana State Water Ski Championships held at Hawthorn Lake is now history.  The event got off to a rainy start gut the skies cleared after an hour and half rain to present pristine skiing conditions for all skier divisions on both Saturday and Sunday.  Podium awards were presented throughout the day.  Several State Championship Records were broken  on both days by skiers Nate Smith, Prissy Edwards, Gary Hall, and Glen Reid.  Attendance was at an all time high in comparison to recent state tournaments.  IWSA enrolled 20 new memberships bringing our numbers up close to 100 memberships!  (more that double from previous years!)  Thanks to Hawthorn Lake, the Tucker family, the Detty families, the officials, the promo boat representatives, and friends who pitched in to help. 

Official Results Coming Soon.

7/21/2014

0 Comments

 
The first of 2 "learn to ski days" sponsored by the Indy Skiers at their ski site on White River just north of 16th Street in Indianapolis was well attended by both members and guests.  Several new skiers learned to water ski and we were all witness to a couple of people who learned to slalom ski.  Boat rides to the "not so brave" folks was also provided along with beverages and food.  Hats off to the Indy Skiers for promoting our favorite sport.

A lesson from Noah Vieke

7/19/2014

0 Comments

 
Skiers from the mid-west and Canada took advantage of the opportunity to receive some coaching from Noah Vieke on July 18th-19th.  Noah took a few days off from his Florida driving/coaching job with Chet Raley and shared his expertise with his Indiana connection.   Dad Andy Vieke was tickled to have Noah home for a few days.  Every skier went away with a "game changer" tidbit to improve their skiing and ball count.

Just Like "Field of Dreams"

7/7/2014

mention water skiing and they will come!  Out in the middle of corn country, the Boondocks Lake Hoosier Buoy Tour had a full house.  A#1 Hospitality from the Morton Family and perfect holiday weather combined to make a memorable day.  Skiing conditions were good although a breeze popped up and grabbed Bryan Dougherty's shade tent and deposited it in the middle of the lake where it promptly sank!  After 2 rounds of qualifying, the "head to head format" with 2 boats pulling water skiers to each end of the lake really spiced up the event.  Awards went to Chris Benguis - 1st,  Caroline Sogard - 2nd,  Dan Reed - 3rd.  Due to scheduling issues, the next Hoosier Buoy Tour will be at the Indiana State Championships at Hawthorn Lake.
