Ledhead, I don't even come close to what these guys are doing. I couldn't hold a candle to their skishing skills.Originally Posted by ledhead36
Guys like Paul Melnyk, who although not the inventor of skishing, but one of the most vocal promoters, have brought the sport of skishing and the safety concerns to the level it's at today.

Guys like Frank Blasko who just want to get out there and get away from the crowds, and accept the risks they take.
Guys like Gunny & Jake from www.Stripercoastsurfcasters.us and
www.skishingnewengland.com, and many more who have been doing it on their own for years, long before the internet and the seminars...
These guys all got into it for different reasons. One of the things I want to stress is the safety aspect.
I met a guy at Montauk who told me a great skishing story. I believe I posted it here, I'll have to look for it. Unfortunately, it almost turned out as a news item because the guy was swept out to sea at night by the strong current.
It's still a great story, and makes me fully aware of the need to be prepared and do a lot of research before you get into something like this.
