Confession time I have only ever skied behind someone else's boat; therefore, Since I am hoping to get my boat on the water this year first time since I have owned it , I was thinking about skiing gear and what I need to purchase. So, looks like I need a couple of ropes and eventually a ski or two.. My kids are 9,7, and 2, so I am not expecting them to do much besides stand up, if they can even do that this summer.
We are going to be super budget conscious with all of this stuff, so used gear is a good possibility, especially for ski's. I've seen floaters and sinkers, and want to make sure the kids can find the rope on the water when we do have them attempting to ski or wakeboard. Ok so I will state first off that I dont have kids and I have never taught young kids but this is what I would maybe recommend not for the 2 yo tho.
I dont know how budget conscious you are? If you mean you have 50 bucks to spend or ? But What I would do is go buy some kid trainers or a bit smaller combo skis.
Something that is nice and wide. The bindings should be kinda loose so they come out of them easy on falls. You should be able to look at craigslist and get a pair for under 50 bucks and defiantly under Next if you want to make it really easy on them look at craigslist for a barefoot boom. You can find them on craigslist for but if you are in a rush-ish it should be sorta easy to find them for Ppl say the boom is way easier to teach and gives a beginner confidence to then go long line.
