Cypress Gardens, Florida
CG.17 - Cypress Gardens Aqua-Maids on Parade in four Daily Water Ski Shows at Cypress Gardens. The beautiful AquaMaids do precision plus water skiing as they come by the crowd in various ballet routines.
CG.22 - Water Ski Trick Riding - Here is the famous backward swan as demonstrated by the originator of this trick, Willa Worthington McGuire, who holds the Women's World Championship. This stunt is performed daily in the four water ski shows at Florida Cypress Gardens.
CG.21 - Barefoot Skiing At Cypress Gardens - Dick Pope Jr., Men's World Water Ski Champion, barefoot skiing at Cypress Gardens. This is a trick originated by this famous youngster. Barefoot skiing is part of the several daily water ski shows at Cypress Gardens.
I remember the Aquamaids! As a little girl, I liked Timmy the Tiger and Corky the Clown. When I was growing up, we went with my grandparents ad nauseam. Memories!
ReplyDeleteMy grandparents took me there constantly as well. I always enjoyed the gardens but for some reason the ski shows never interested me much.
