Barefoot skiing is something I’ve always wanted to try but after rupturing my ear drum while wakeboarding and a few other neck-snapping rag-dolls, I’m not sure I’d ever have the guts.

This girl, on the other hand, has it down! I like how she has her foot in the water to help her steer. As if the skiing itself wasn’t intense enough, she was "coasting" into the beach after having whipped around the boat. She’s probably skipping along at 60MPH on her butt there!
