    A Letter To Our NSSA Show Ski Family

    Doug Ribley NSSA President Dec. 21, 2020

    As we find ourselves in the midst of the 2020 Holiday Season, I wanted to take a moment to share some thoughts regarding our wonderful sport…past, present and future. One of the things that is so prevalent throughout our membership is the respect and passion for our sport’s rich history. Water ski shows have impressed, inspired and entertained a countless number of spectators and communities since its inception. When Ralph Samuelson skimmed across the water for the first time in 1922, few could have imagined that this accomplishment would capture the attention of people around the globe and would evolve into one of the most exciting, family-oriented sports.

    Nelson Enjoys Record-Setting Year

    USA Water Ski & Wake Sports Photography by FlowPoint LLC Dec. 17, 2020

    U.S. adaptive water ski athlete Elisha Nelson of Woodland, Calif., had a record summer of skiing this year, three to be exact. Although she was born with a congenital arm amputation, Nelson set her three records at able bodied tournaments (Women 3 division) in 2020. Nelson skis in the A2 category, classified as those having a hand or arm disability preventing them from holding the handle normally. In contrast to the A1 category, the disabled upper limb may come in contact, directly or indirectly, with the tow handle or tow line while the skier is in the course. Athletes skiing in this category use the same equipment as able bodied skiers and have the option of using a prosthesis.
