My 14 year old son went skiing for his first time today, got up on his 3rd try, and as the day went by he just got better and better. The really cool part is that I've never been on water skis (once upon a time I was pretty good on snow skis, but I don't believe there's much in common) so he didn't really have any kind of instruction, nor have I ever pulled a skier before - we both spent some time studying this forum and learned enough here to point us in the right direction. (Of course it probably helped that my son is very athletic and has been running and working out all summer.) Anyway I think my grin was bigger than his.
