We had a great time talking to Ben Favret today all about slalom water skiing  for which he has won several awards and championships. The one that meant the most to Ben was the 2001 US Team World Championships in Italy....Listen in to hear why this was a very special day for Ben and Team USA.

At the ripe old age of 3 Ben started to ski and told us how he made the transition into slalom competitions. He made some tough decision and sacrifices along the way, but has absolutely no regrets because of what he has accomplished and experienced over the years.

Ben talked to us about the basics of how to get up on your skis that first all important time, the 4 fundamental movements for water skiing, barefoot, 2 foot and slalom skiing and what beginners should do to make it the most enjoyable for them.

Ben has also co-authored a book: Complete Guide to Water Skiing which can be found in most book stores or online. He talks about how he was motivated to write this book.

Ben told us about his most memorable "Wipe out"....with a surprising result, you won't want to miss this story.

He has 4 children that keep him busy and is fortunate enough to live on a Lake, so he is always skiing and of course loves it, along with his family.

We talked about how Ben keeps on going at the ripe old age of 40+ and his story is a true inspiration. You can hear the passion in his voice about what he does and that he is truly following his DREAM.

We thank Ben for an entertaining and educational show and we wish him well in his upcoming tournaments.
