There’s a first for everything and water skiing is no exception! In this week’s episode, we discuss Mastercraft Pro, Goode testing days, and the ups and downs leading right up to Miami Pro. Elizabeth recounts the play-by-play of her first pro win, and we both discuss our plans for the off-season. 

This is the big one! In this episode, we cover why we almost bailed on the Malibu Open the morning of the prelims, Elizabeth’s first World Championships experience, and what not to do to someone on the dock right before they ski. We hope you enjoy this on-the-road-fresh-off-the-event session!

We’re talking through our experiences at the most recent pro 3 events — from Stevie’s first real pro-competition experience to Elizabeth spraining 3 of her ribs, meeting the Ski or Die community from coast to coast, and our biggest takeaways from both our failures and successes on the water.

We didn’t forget! After sitting on this topic for a while, we’re finally addressing the “how to balance gym time with skiing” questions that so many of you asked. We share our successes and failures in creating that balance, input from our coaches, and a training framework you can implement ASAP.

In this week’s episode, Elizabeth touches on her most recent tournament PB and her debut on TikTok. Then we reminisce on our dads’ unique backgrounds and how they have contributed to and impacted our skiing. Happy Father’s Day to all the dads of water skiing!

After a brief hiatus, we’re back with a life update about Elizabeth’s experiences at the LCQs and the why behind all the ski testing that Stevie has been up to. Then we spend some time talking about slumps and how “holding on” to what you’ve got is the enemy of moving forward. In fact, it often leads to feeling completely out of control.

We’re back this week with one of our favorites — The Overrated / Underrated Show! First we kick off with a really exciting life update for Stevie and what it means for the future of his ski career. Then we crack a beer and go on to rate a variety of topics including The WaterSki Pro Tour, zodiac signs, and coaching your ski partner. Enjoy!

This week’s episode is a difficult conversation but is near and dear to our hearts. What do you do when the people closest to you don’t believe in you? We dive into how our circles have positively and negatively impacted us and why we can’t let other people’s opinions guide us on the journey. Your success is 110% YOUR responsibility.

We’re back this week to talk about tournament mindset, specifically managing nerves on competition day. We pull strategies and analogies from how we’ve been coached and our own experiences that we think shine light on “nerves” in a new way.  We talk about micro-goals, perspective, and why “pressure is a privilege.”

Another new format we love — the 2:00 drill! We answer your questions about if it’s possible to train ski skills off the water, what it’s like coming back from injuries, whether or not we have days when we don’t feel like skiing, our favorite Zero Off settings by boat, and more. We hope you enjoy this format as much as we did and submit your questions next time!
