Stand Among the Stars

If you stay away from the boat-show circuit because you don't know a reverse chine from a wind chime, reconsider. Whether you're hip on boat-speak or not, you're a skier, and this winter more than ever that's reason enough to become a boat-show junkie. MasterCraft is teaming with WaterSki to bring the world's biggest water skiing stars to shows of the National Marine Manufacturer's Association.

You can talk with Jennifer Leachman about teaching kids to ski, ask Zane Schwenk how he throws a tantrum, or find out how Wade Cox uses pennies to set up his fin box. Each featured skier will be available Friday night and Saturday and Sunday afternoons of the shows. It's a great opportunity to pose real questions to the best skiers on the planet, and to hear real answers. Check out one of the following NMMA shows:
