Baller Golfguy Posted March 21, 2020 Baller Share Posted March 21, 2020 Very formative planning for a water ski club/pay to ski in the Phoenix area. I need to know what level of interest there is. Basically, I have access to a rotation on a private lake outside of Phoenix. Conversations started. Any interest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Golfguy Posted March 22, 2020 Author Baller Share Posted March 22, 2020 @dbutcher Does anyone have experience as to the best way to insure this sort of operation against liaibility? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller jpattigr Posted March 22, 2020 Baller Share Posted March 22, 2020 Don't get to that area often but would love to have an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Eljaybee Posted March 22, 2020 Baller Share Posted March 22, 2020 @golfguy Big interest here as I am in Glendale at least once a quarter and would enjoy that option. On the insurance piece you may want to consider contacting USA waterski and ask them to walk you through the insurance that is available to clubs and members. I found their insights very helpful for our course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Ed_Johnson Posted March 24, 2020 Baller Share Posted March 24, 2020 I remember going to Firebird Raceway back in the late 80's, where they had a Slalom Course that you paid them to raise, and went ahead and skied. Not sure what ever happened to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller UWSkier Posted March 24, 2020 Baller Share Posted March 24, 2020 @Ed_Johnson there's still a course and jump at Firebird, and you can still pay for sets. I've not been on it, but most folks I know who have say it's gross. Salty, corrosive water that reeks of jet fuel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller swc5150 Posted March 25, 2020 Baller Share Posted March 25, 2020 Firebird is nasty. Falls feel like hitting concrete on that salty water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller_ lpskier Posted July 1, 2020 Baller_ Share Posted July 1, 2020 If you are still interested in insurance, call Wayne at (518) 891-2020. He reps Sportsinsurance.com, which will be your cheapest insurance option. USAWSWS also provides club insurance. Lpskier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
layneenyal Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I just finished a 10 day stay in Gilbert and couldn’t go skiing once cause I knew no one that could go with me in my Gekko ski boat. I’ll be back there in late March and again in April and again in May... I’d really like to do some winter skiing before the ice melts here in Alaska. I could even be texted at 907-360-0430 Thanks, Layne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller dbaconaz Posted March 1, 2021 Baller Share Posted March 1, 2021 @layneenyal Let me know when your in town! Always willing to pull a fellow skier! I don't have access to a course but we still have fun in the open water! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
