Pro wakeboarder Shaun Murray ripping some turns on a ski

Gotta love this!

Is that a 200 with a tower??

Waiting for answer from proskier(s)

Way to go Shaun great to see. Chase a few buoys and get addicted next time

Some people are just athletes. I bet within a few weeks on a course he could be running passes at 34.

Yup, Shaun would not take long to master the Buoys! Good man and great athlete! Thanks for sharing to video.

I skied at Florida Southern College in the mid 90s with Shaun. Great guy. He got into 28 off, jumped 115 and obviously thousands of points on a trick ski. The dude can do ANYTHING on the water.

@jcamp U and I must have skied the same events! I was at UCF till 95 and got to watch Murray "trick" on his wake board..... good times

Such an amazing athlete. Wakeboarding, surfing, skiing... pretty much any watersport, plus he competes in American Ninja Warrior, all at 42. Seems like a genuinely good person too.

So interesting that he slaloms RFF and wakeboard LFF. I wonder if you sampled a 100 skiers, just as they were learning to wakeboard, and got them to experiment, how many would choose the opposite foot forward?

@andjules I was thinking the same thing- and that it may help him to ski opposite (to keep things more separate and prevent cross contamination) but any wakeboarder at that level rides so much switch that I would imagine is "switch" wakeboarding is still better than 99.9% of other wakeboarders riding normal.

Love the old school bent elbow turns - reminds me of the legend 80’s skier Brett Thurley
