1. What is a "ski"?

A "ski" refers to one boarding / skiing session that would normally last for around fifteen minutes. During your ski if you fall, your ski is not over; the boat will come around and give you another go. Normally, a ski ends when you get tired or when your fifteen minute period is over. For most people, a ski will end due to you getting tired; it is rare that we will ask you to get out of the water due to timing.

2. How many "skis" would I normally get per day trip?

Usually, two skis are enough for most people. You will likely be too tired to have another go, especially if you are not an experienced skier. Providing there is time, there is no limit on the number of ski's allowed, so if you are keen you are welcome to have three or four ski's each.

3. If I fall off am I up for another $15?

No, a fall does not end a ski. See the "What is a ski" FAQ item.

7. I don't have a car, how can I get to the lake(s)?
