The upcoming political changes got me thinking...

Has the USA ever had a slalom skiing President or Vice-President? Cabinet member? Political platforms need to address this wanton lack of representation!

I'm off to get my dry-suit for an end-of-year ski run so that I can express my political opinion...

I thought I saw an old video of JFK waterskiing years ago.

My favorite musician became Alan Jackson since he did a video and was water skiing in the video.

Clint Eastwood was mayor of Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA

Seems that Mayor Eastwood was known to rip it on a slalom waterski. (Note the butterfly handles and the shocking lack of USCG approved flotation device)

Just incredible what we share with some of the greats in society. Who would have thought Jackie O could execute a paired slalom deep water start.

Certainly no one too famous, but in 1976 I taught waterskiing to a U.S. senators daughter and to comedian Harvey Corman's daughter.

I was amazed that it looks like Jackie O got up on one ski in a tandem pull!
