Welcome to slalom week. No this is not your fin adjusting, binding moving, techy talking week of holier than thou slalom. This is two best friends reuniting for some serious one on one slalom. Nic Walton and I have been waterski buds since the fall of 2004 when Nic first joined the SDSU Waterski Team. We were so hardcore in college that we would beat the dawn patrol at San Diego’s Mission Bay course. One of us sitting in the water and the other behind the wheel, as soon as it was light enough for the driver to see half of the slalom course we would hit it. Getting at least one set each before anyone else even showed up to the course.
Currently living in Oregon, Nic belongs to a brand new waterski club that skis on a brand new dream lake out on a country farm. The conditions are near perfect everyday and the weather this time of year hovers in the triple digits. This is a slalom only lake (no jump). There will be nobody using the lake for the next 4 days so we will be taking advantage of this golden opportunity. Updates to come daily.
