Uni-Water skiing?

[GILD]

has anybody ever tried strapping a uni to a waterski?

what would be the point, it is not like you`d be unicycling, and the whole challenge would be just not letting the board get a funny angle...

he's new, right?
no, u can tell me, he is new around here, right?
he is!
he must be!
he's on a uni-forum site and he uses a phrase like 'what's the point?' ?!?

bloody newbies!!

;)

Yep Dave.......... He is new.
I'd say I would like it to see it on a waterski but idling wouldn't be a problem on one spot......hey. Sounds good to me but I haven't tried waterski all my life. I'd stick to Unicycling alone.
I'm more worried about these newbie's when they post their new threads Dave. I'm still waiting if any Australians Unicyclist are going to registed this site. Or even South Africa for example.

OK, hang about, i was just kidding in my diatribe against newbies.
i know sarcasm runs the risk of getting lost on the web and i dont want anyone (esp newbies) to get the wrong idea

some of my best friends we're newbies...

i keep hoping for some south african company on this board
we've had a couple of new people jon us at club meets and once they get up and riding, i'm hoping we'll see them on here

Too True, I'm with you Dave. I love to see new newbie's coming.
Keep the newbie's coming.

Yeah. You could bolt a unicycle frame with a comfy KH seat to a Sky Ski instead of the dorky looking bench seat thing that the Sky Ski usually has. A suspension seatpost might be a good addition.

Pictures of Sky Skis if you're not familiar with them:

You're right. That's a goof on my part.
Here are links to the main gallery page for each site:
