Lake skiing gear
Waterskis are a pair of long, narrow boards strapped to the feet for gliding over water while being towed by a motorboat.
The sport requires balance and grip strength as the skier holds a tow rope and leans back against the pull: She slalomed expertly on a single waterski.
To waterski is to engage in the activity.
