In today’s world of show skiing, the Rock Aqua Jays are as
good as it gets. As the reigning U.S. champion, the 150-member team
is gearing up to go after a record 14th title at nationals in
August. With the once-popular professional shows closing at an
alarming rate – including the high-profile ones at SeaWorld
Orlando in September and Cypress Gardens in April – the Aqua
Jays are helping to keep show skiing alive. They’re doing it
with incomparable dedication, envelope-pushing stunts and most
important, pure cheese.
To read WaterSki magazine's full account of show
skiing and the Rock Aqua Jays, check out the July 2003 issue of
WaterSki. Here we present a broad sampling of what's
available in show skiing today.
