Lane Racing is a fast action multi dicipline water sking sport for all to enjoy.  It is more about the ability of the skiers along with the teamwork of the boat driver and observer rather than having a fast boat.  It really is a test of skill and teamwork.

Lane Racing is a fast action multi dicipline water sking sport for all to enjoy.  The teams consist of 6 to 8 people including the boat driver and observer. 

Three teams compete against each other over a 400m course in separate lanes.  Each lap sees the observer handing the handle to the skier running the rope out and  racing 400m to the turn around bouy.  The skier releases the handle while the boat turns around, pulls the rope in and hands back to the skier who then skies back to the start bouy.  This is continued until all legs are finished in the set order.  Equipment that is used on each different leg include Single, Double Finless, Single Finless, Freeboard and finally the Plank (Fence Paling)

Get a group together a boat and come enjoy it.

If you are single and can ski come along as we may be able to hook you up with a team.
