I’ve posted a couple new Mad-City Ski Team videos on Google Video…
I know the Bug-man YouTube’d this, but here is a cleaner copy I put up on Google…
Mad-City’s one and only Jaw Dropper featuring Paul O’Conner!!!
Waterski Magazine Online put together a short video showing the world what Footstock is. Click on the link and then look for the footstock video.
Libby, you make a brief apperance at the 2:05 mark and Dewey, you got quite a bit of air time starting about 2:25.
Looking for results? The official results can be found here.
Thinking about doing this… looks fun! Just a month away. Need to decide quickly.
At the Wisconsin State Show Ski Tournament, the highest scoring act for Mad-City, the highest scoring comedy act and the highest scoring act of the entire tournament was done by one man. Mr. Adam Schaller. He’s got a little dance routine that proves to be quite funny. Many people know the Evolution of Dance. Well, that’s what we did, but we put a show ski twist to it. Same premise, but we incorporated a lot of the songs that Mad-City has used over the years for our various dances. So presented here is the Evolution of Show Skiing Dance from our National’s show. It is almost the same as state, just a little bit shorter, and sadly, a couple less songs. Enjoy.
At Nationals, Mad-City won the highest scoring jump act award (in addition to a National Championship in 2006). Typically, this goes to a large jump team doing a lot of multi-person jumps. Not this year. This year we had the Jaw Dropper. One man and his driver were responsible for it. We sent Mr. Paul O’Conner over the ramp three times. Boat barely left the show course. Crowd LOVED it!!! Here is the video from YouTube.
For those that know show skiing, you know what I mean. For those that don’t, this is a slick act and worthy of the title to this post. I mentioned this in my Nationals Recap, now someone has posted video. Enjoy Wonder Lake’s Prefabricated Pyramid Hot Pick/Thread the Needle… Worthy of the highest scoring pyramid act at Nationals.
Not sure on the details. Guessing just a “here are some kick ass barefoot moves” type video. Here is a preview…

…and many people think I’m a little nutz, but these guys make me look down right normal. Besides the way they treat the boat (dropping it in through the ice and driving it through the ice), it is their skiing and driving that is just down right scary. You’d think if they were this die hard, they’d be better. You’d also think they would have a good driver. Nothing like gunning it when there is 10 feet left before the rope comes tight. The guy wearing the heavy red flannel shirt, no way would I ski behind him based on what I’ve seen in this video.
I may have posted a link to this once before, but I couldn’t find it, so here goes…
BTW, they have one good point… There are no jet skis in November.
