Walkin On Water

Great day of water sports today with Mike. My 13 year old wanted to try water skiing. He got up on skis but also a wakeboard and some barefooting. Everyone in our family of four got up for some activity. Mike is an easygoing and terrific instructor. Some of the best pics and videos. Big smiles all around. My kids now have the water skiing bug. We will call on Mike on our next trip to Delray.

We had a fantastic day with Mike! Only 1 person in the group had experience with wake-​boarding/​waterskiing and everyone was able to get up by the end of the session. It was a perfect activity and exactly what we were looking for! Even tried barefoot skiing! SO cool! Cannot wait to try it again! Thanks, Mike!!!

We had a wonderful experience with Mike of Walkin on Water. I can’t recommend him highly enough. My wife and I spent an hour (actually a bit more– he gave us extra time without asking for anything in return) on his boat in Like Ida. He provided all of the equipment, clear guidance, and endless patience. We didn’t know anything about waterskiing, but now we feel like pros and plan to go back to Mike and do it again on our next visit to Florida. It’s lots of fun and Mike is a good man. Don’t visit South Florida without checking this out.

My family spent two hours on the water with Mike of Walkin on Water and had a great time. We spent half the time with the kids being towed on the tube around the lake and the other half learning to water ski. Mike had my daughter, a first timer, up on the skis immediately on the tow bar. He was really great at instructing her and giving her advice from the boat and she quickly progressed. We had a fantastic day!

So this is the first business I ever added to Unilocal.We heard that Lake Ida had great water sports and we wanted to go water skiing. By word of mouth, Mike Frankenbush was recommended to us. Well, he was amazing. Super nice and obviously an expert instructor. In two hours he got both my daughters (one of whom never skied before) up on water skies, then on wakeboards (think snowboard) then, honestly, he got them waterskiing on their bare feet (with a small cheat that didn’t take away from the thrill). After our ride, Mike gave me his card and it says he is not just a certified instructor but he was a National Barefoot (waterskiing) Champion. Check him out. It’s one guy and a boat that is equipped with everything you can need, from beginner to expert.
