Interesting video... The actual riding seems a bit 1 dimensional. On the opposite end of the spectrum, but still riding water skis... I think water skis work better on snow. I love this video part... McKonkey was definitely a ski visionary

now that's a cool vid  (the Hawaii one)

I wonder if those skis have enough buoyancy to float? What happens if he crashes, does he drown in those ski boots?

The poles are funneh.

If the dude was really rad he'd tele.

If he was a retro grouch who found satisfaction in using shitty equipment to slide down hill he would tele.

This just proves the old saying - it's not the equipment, it's the athlete.
I learned this years ago in biking. When I was doing recreational road racing I bought a full up carbon fiber machine. After comparing 2 years of data with the previous 2 years of data taken from my steel bike I found almost no statistical difference. It may have helped if I were a pro racer, but at my level it made no difference. Shane could make two oak planks look good.
