UW-La Crosse "We are
the Skigles Ka-Kawwww
Current Events:
Who? We are a group of college students that just love being on the water. We have everyone on the team from first timers just learning the ropes to some jumping 100+ feet, performing aerials and inverts, or skiing into shortline at 36 mph. And don’t worry if you don’t have your own equipment, we have some just for you! Everyone is out here because we love the water and being behind the boat. We are all here to have a blast!
What?
We are a member of the Midwest Collegiate Water Ski
Association where we compete against all other
University of Wisconsin schools, Iowa, Minnesota,
Illinois, Colorado, and Missouri schools.
The team is a competitive waterski and
wakeboard team that competes in approximately 5
tournaments in the fall from the second weekend of
school to the middle of October.
Then in the spring we compete in at least 3
more tournaments including hosting our own in New
Germany, MN!
The tournaments are either a three event
waterski tournament consisting of trick, jump, and slalom, or a
wakeboard tournament.
Tournaments
will consist of driving to wherever Friday after
class, camping at the site Friday night,
skiing/boarding all day Saturday, camping Saturday
night, skiing/boarding Sunday morning and early
afternoon, awards, and driving back Sunday late
afternoon.
You’ll be back in plenty of time Sunday night
to get the bookwork done.
Where and When?
Practices will happen each day at Air Port Beach on
French Island.
This is on the Black River.
Practices are a come if you can atmosphere
and the boat will be out on the water from about 2pm
until dusk Monday thru Thursday.
Fridays we head to our tournaments which go
thru Sunday.
We all car pool out to the beach, so don’t
worry if you don’t have a car.
And the best part of practice is skiing or
wakeboarding behind the sweet Malibu Response TXI! Why?
More like why not!
Who wouldn’t want to go out skiing,
wakeboarding, or wakeskating in September while
everyone else is going to Murphy to study?
Or go camping on the weekends next to the
water and ski or board all weekend long?
Not a hard question.
