ShowCal Skiers hold first practice of the season at jump lagoon

The ShowCal Skiers had their first practice of the season on Sunday at the jump lagoon. Their first show will be on the main lake at Fiesta Day on May 25.

As always, the team is looking for new members; no experience necessary. Those interested in seeing what show skiing is all about should attend the next practice on Sunday, Apr. 29, at 2 p.m. at the jump lagoon on Longhorn Drive.

ShowCal Skiers is a sanctioned club and California’s first and only show ski club.

Skills training is taught for all aspects of the ski show, including audio/visual, announcing/hosting, drivers/power team, safety coordinators and equipment.

Ski disciplines include two skis, slalom, barefoot, trick, shoe ski, swivel, ballet, jump, doubles, trios, adagio, human pyramids, ATB, kneeboard, disc, wakeboard, wakeskate, foil, free-style and hot dogging. Members incorporate all types of performance artistry in their water-ski shows.
