Footin’ Fever barefoot skiing competition at Cypress Gardens Saturday

Cypress Gardens will host Footin’ Fever, a barefoot endurance competition starting at 8 a.m. this Saturday. Competitors will go head-to-head around the Cypress Gardens show circle on Lake Eloise. Two competitors will go at a time and the first competitor to fall will be eliminated.

The entry fee for competitors is $50 and includes free parking in the main parking lot, entry to Cypress Gardens, a T-shirt and a cook-out following the competition. If you think you have what it takes to stay upright, skiers may register beginning at 7 a.m. at the Cypress Gardens main entrance. An awards ceremony will be held directly following the last ski show of the day. All USA Water Ski members must bring their membership cards. Depending on entries received, the competition could be extended to Sunday, Oct 26, to finish final rounds.
