How it started . . .

When I was in college the Austin Barefoot Ski Club hosted Aggie Barefoot Day for the Texas A&M Waterski Team. The moment I stood up on the boom, I knew I had graduated from three event and barefooting would be my sport!

Favorite thing about the WBC . . .

The WBC is too good to just have one favorite! I love watching the junior skiers progress so quickly, I love that the WBC keeps the sport alive and connected at every level, and that we are one big fun and quirky family!
