  1. Hey wat up Noah,Isaac, and Nancy its Rick i met u guys on Thursday when i came out to ski. it was great meeting you its sounds like you had a great time but then of course you would.hope alls well back home take care maybe we will meet again!!!
  2. Wats up ballers,my name is Rick Jones i'm 60 years young. I live in St.Cloud,Fla. I started slalom skiing i the early 80's with a good friend of mine,he moved so there goes the boat. After a couple years of no skiing Orlando Water Sports Complex opened did alot of cable skiing when Mike Ferraro was out there. He hooked me up with some instruction and i learned alot from him. Several years ago through another friend at o-dub i got to meet Wade Cox need i say more. I now ski with Wade a couple times a week and am having the time of my life. Skiing with a legend wat could be better.
  3. Hey fellow Ballers what a great article Trent Finlayson wrote about Coxy and his return to coaching. I got to tell you that i skied with him yesterday and even though the water was 68 degrees, overcast conditions i had the best ever session. I wrote a blog a few weeks ago on BOS and just let me say this i have a personal best every time i go out there. Give the guy a shout,or send out a note welcoming him back to the water ski world. I know he would love that.
  4. Hey fellow ballers just wanted to share a little something with you. I have been skiing with Wade Cox off and on over the last several years. Many things he has taught me but most important is to relax and have fun when your out there.I'm from the old school of learning,got new HO syndicate A3,and wow what a difference that made. He has taught me to relax and ride the ski and has turned work into having a ball or two or three LOL. I've heard many stories about the places he has been, the rivals he has been through. He truely has a passion for skiing. He has been my coach and now he is one of my best friends. In the March issue of Waterski mag he has a advertisment for his water ski camp,give him a shout or email and check it out. I,ve had a blast guys
