A more appropriate question would be, "Could water skiing be dangerous"? Yes, the sport can be dangerous. However, the same could be said about virtually any sport. The more tricks you perform, the more risk you assume. Also, a bad boat driver could increase your risks of injury as well. Just remember, it is still much much safer than the drive to the lake. You can take safety precautions such as wearing a water helmet and life vest. Water skiing is both challenging and extremely fun. I say get out there and rip it up!

If you fall there is a risk of being hit by another boat. If you see one coming toward you hold your ski high up out of the water and splash to make sure they can see you. Always wear a life jacket.

They are both dangerous, a proper training is the best way to avoid danger. So before you try any of it better to have a proper training first.

Do you need a helmet for crosscountry skiing?

My advice is to always wear a helmet when you go skiing. It can be very dangerous if you dont have one, because the snow is hard to land on. Even if you go skiing in deep snow, you never know if there are stones hidden underneath it.


Which is safer water skiing or snow skiing?

These two sports are both dangerous when you get to higher speeds. But the one sport that you can control more of is waterskiing. You can tell the boat driver to go faster or slower, or if you just want to stop you can let go of the rope and sink into the water. Where as if you want to stop in snow skiing and your a beginner then you will have to sit on your butt and thats not fun after a while. So, waterskiing is much safer because there are more things you can control, but that does not mean that there aren't any risks when eventually if you reach 36mph and you fall you can have a pretty nasty injury.
