Our Nationals 2016 Team in El Centro, California
The first Saturday of every December we have our annual Ski, Freeze, or Die event, where we all brave the cold and ski in swimsuits!

PracticeThe team practices weekly at Extreme Watersports Center in Newtown, OH from 5-dark from April until Mid-October and at Skier's Runway in Harrison, OH from 8am-12pm throughout the summer. They are private ski lake site and two of our coaches are promo boat owners. This means that we practice behind brand new, tournament-grade Mastercraft and Malibu boats.
CompetitionOur competition season is September through October. We go to 2 open tournaments every year, the Southern Ohio Challenge in Harrison, OH and the Fall Fling in Van Wert, OH. Our first qualifying tournament is the Great Lakes Conference Championships in Van Wert, OH. Upon qualifying, we travel to Decatur, IL for Midwest Collegiate Regionals. If we qualify there, which we have for the past 10 years, we travel to an awesome, warm location for Collegiate Nationals! Our tournaments are a ton of fun and give opportunities for both A and B Team skiers!
Have FunOur team also organizes a lot of social events throughout the year. We travel to Dale Hollow Lake for our annual Houseboat trip, to a school in the Midwest for Winter Conference, and to a ski location for spring break. Additionally, we volunteer as a team at the Flying Pig Marathon and Ampuski. We're also crazy enough to go out and ski for a day in December for our annual Ski, Freeze, or Die event!
