An Aqualand water ski used for slalom skiing
Aqualand Water Ski
Aqualand Manufacturing Company of Woodruff, Wisconsin, began making wooden water skis in 1961 and often sent their products to nearby Camp Timberlane for Boys for feedback on new designs. This slalom water ski was made for a camp counselor according to his specifications. At the time, Aqualand made only wooden water skis but today primarily makes metal products for boating and recreational uses.
