Water Skis / Slalom Skis

Water Skis or Slalom skis are now user friendly and are helping to push the resurgence in slalom skiing. Radar, H.O. Skis, Connelly, and KD skis all have made slalom skis that are much easier to use, including high performance advanced skis which are faster and ride higher in the water. Intermediate slalom water skis are where the big improvements have been made, from slightly wider up to 8mm wider down the middle of the skis making them much more stable, easier to get up on but will still turn when placed on an edge. Beginner slalom skis are also wider with sharper edges that allow the ski to sit higher in the water making them easier to use.

How do I choose water skis?

Skis are created and customised for individuals based on their weight and expertise level. They are usually offered for sale in three weight-based categories: beginner, intermediate, and advanced. The length of the ski increases with skier weight. You can read our Guide to Choosing the right water skis and Water ski Sizing guide.

What waterskis to choose for a beginner?

You should get a set of combination (combo skis) or training skis if you're a beginner or buying skis for family and friends. Advanced skiers are aware when they need to set up for a trick, jump, or slalom ski to accelerate quickly and make sharp turns. You can also read our guide to 5 Water-skiing Tips for Beginners.

What Are Combo Skis / Combo Waterskis?

Trainer, double skis or combo skis are ideal for beginner water skiers. There are two of skis, compared to a single ski. Children's trainers, usually available for younger children, include stabiliser bars attached to them to assist keep their feet together while they learn how to waterski. Typically, combo skis consist of two skis: one with two bindings and the other with just one. When someone gains confidence in their water skiing skills, this enables the ride to switch from two skis to one.

What are Slalom Skis?

Slalom skis come with two bindings and are offered individually. They are designed for intermediate to expert water skiers that enjoy speeding, carving, playing in the wake, and maybe doing a few minor jumps or tricks.

Should I Use One Waterski Or Two?

Learning and getting up on two skis and then dropping one ski is a fantastic way to learn. When on a lake or lagoon, simply keep in mind where you left the ski so you can retrieve it. This method helps you become used to skiing slalom style, and it's far simpler to get up on two skis in a deep water start than it is to try to do it on one ski. Single slalom ski deep-water beginnings are trickier, which is where the deep-V-handle ski rope comes in handy.

The typical water ski speed after you're moving is about 30 mph. Professional slalom skiers compete at 36 mph, but you may let your driver know what pace suits you best.
