WaterSki magazine photographer Bill Doster was on hand this morning as Geno Yauchler set the record for the most inverts in one hour on a Sky Ski (sit-down hydrofoil water ski) on Lake Eloise in Winter Haven, Florida. Yauchler completed 826 flips in an hour, setting the record on his 38th birthday.
Yauchler reclaimed the record from Bill Von Zabern, who on Nov. 3, 2008, completed 711 flips on a Sky Ski in an hour and then went on to perform 3058 in 6 and a half hours without stopping.
Yauchler set his original record of 529 flips on March 23, 2008, in England.

Is this fun to do? im 39 and used to waterski in my 20's. I was OK. I could get up w one ski and ski but I was nothing special. The sitting down and cruising looks pretty sweet. Is this easy?
