    WATER SPORTS BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA MERIT BADGE SERIES WATER SPORTS “Enhancing our youths’ competitive edge through merit badges” Requirements 1. Do the following: a. Explain to your counselor the most likely hazards you may encounter while participating in water sports activities and what you should do to anticipate, help prevent, mitigate, and respond to these hazards. b. Review prevention, symptoms, and first-aid treatment for the following injuries or illnesses that could occur while participating in water sports: blisters, cold-water shock and hypothermia, dehydration, heat-related ill- nesses, sunburn, sprains, strains, minor cuts and bruises, spinal injury, and concussions and head trauma. c. Review the BSA Safety Afloat policy. Tell how it applies to water sports. 2. Do the following: a. Discuss with your counselor the characteristics of life jackets most appropriate for water sports, and tell why one must always be worn while waterskiing or wake- boarding. Then demonstrate how to select and fit a life jacket for water sports activities. b. Review and discuss the Water Sports Safety Code with your counselor. Promise that you will live up to it and follow it in all water work for this merit badge. Review the safety precautions that must be used by the boat operator in pulling waterskiers and wakeboarders. 3.

  • Waterskiing and Wakeboarding: Safety Activity Checkpoints
    Waterskiing and Wakeboarding: Safety Activity Checkpoints Similar to surfing, learning to stand up on waterskis or a wakeboard (a single board resembling a snowboard) is one of the sport’s primary challenges, especially for beginners. Waterskiing requires thorough instruction and practice; key elements of successful waterskiing include balance, a strong grip, and proper-fitting skis/board and bindings. Beginners must learn the waterski position: knees bent and together, leaning back with weight on the balls of the feet, head up, arms straight, and skis pointing forward. To prevent injuries, waterskiers must learn (contrary to instinct) to release the towline as soon as they begin to lose their balance. Skiers either wear one board (called slalom) or two skis (called combo); barefoot waterskiing is an advanced skill. Wakeboarding is not recommended for Girl Scout Daisies and Brownies. Caution: Girls are not allowed to operate motorized boats without council permission; girls are not allowed to do aerial tricks on waterskis or wakeboards. Know where to waterski and wakeboard. Wide-open bodies of water such as a lake are ideal. Connect with your Girl Scout council for site suggestions. Include girls with disabilities. Communicate with girls with disabilities and/or their caregivers to assess any needs and accommodations. Visit USA Water Ski for information about amenities for waterskiers with disabilities. Waterskiing and Wakeboarding Gear Basic Gear One-piece bathing suit (less cumbersome than a two-piece) Waterproof sunscreen (SPF of at least 15) Goggles for girls who require glasses or contact lenses (available at sporting-goods stores; if prescription goggles are too expensive for girls to purchase, make sure girls test non-prescription goggles to assure proper fit over prescriptive eyewear) Beach towel Dry clothing and sunglasses to wear after surfing Specialized Gear Participants wear a U.S.

  • The Beginning I Have Been Traveling Ever Since I Was a Toddler with My Parents
    The Beginning I have been traveling ever since I was a toddler with my parents. I always remember getting out of school early and getting into a van or suburban and driving ridiculously far. My dad followed the boat racing tour across the States. I used to run along the shoreline with my older brother Scott while watching my dad race his boat across the bay. We went to my grandma’s house in the Florida Keys every weekend while my dad would test his boats. Me, my brother Scott, and my cousins swam and fished all day while my mom watched over us. Born in Miami-Dade County on June 6th, 1973, I grew up around lots of water and fast boats. I learned to swim and ride a motorcycle by the age of three. It was in the blood. My family packed up and moved to York, Pennsylvania when I was in kindergarden. I went from warm ocean water to freezing cold snow. Scott and I adapted fast to the climate change by playing in the snow and getting used to it. We even earned some money by shoveling snow off the driveways. We’d use the money we earned to buy candy from the local chocolate factory or bike parts from the bike shop. Over time, all that shoveling bought me my first pair of hockey skates (CCMs), a skateboard (Veraflex deck with Gullwing Trucks & Sims Wheels), some snow skis (K2s), and a BMX bike (Kuwaharihii, all chrome and red). Scott and I were big into BMX.

  • 2021 Outdoor Participation Trends Report Table of Contents
    2021 OUTDOOR PARTICIPATION TRENDS REPORT TABLE OF CONTENTS Executive Outdoor Participant Diversity The Next A Detailed Methodology Summary Participation Profile Generation Look Snapshot EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In 2020, 53 percent of Americans ages 6 and over participated in outdoor recreation at least once, the highest participation rate on record. As the COVID-19 pandemic ravaged communities and forced a nationwide shutdown, outdoor spaces became places of refuge to safely socialize, improve physical and mental health, connect with family and recover from screen fatigue. Remarkably, 7.1 million more Americans participated in outdoor recreation in 2020 than in the year prior. Despite these gains, nearly half of the U.S. population did not share in the proven, positive health outcomes of outdoor physical activity. COVID-19 inspired huge TERMINOLOGY participation growth, as detailed throughout this report.

  • The Scientific Evidence Regarding Enhanced Boat Wakes Is Compelling
    The Scientific Evidence Regarding Enhanced Boat Wakes is Compelling Executive Summary 1. Other jurisdictions have taken definitive, technically defensible actions to regulate large wakes ( Attachment A ) 2. Wake energy/power is directly related to wake height and goes up exponentially. Wake/surf boats can generate wakes that are 10-25 times more powerful than wakes from boats operated on a plane. ( Slide 3 ) 3. The results of scientific studies and recommendations from numerous sources and jurisdictions generally point to a distance of 500 feet or more from shore to reduce safety and erosion risks from wake/surf boats. Distances of 200- 250 feet are clearly not effective. ( Slide 4 ) 4. The best correlation to wake energy and erosion potential is not boat length but rather “boat size”, which is analogous to displacement. Displacement is the key factor in 2018 performance tests of surf boats. 5. Boats operating at transition speed* generate the most damaging wakes. Boats operating below planing speeds include surf boats (8-13 mph), wakeboarding (typically 15-20 mph), and those towing inflatables (15-20 mph). Waterski boats typically operate at high speeds (about 30 mph), on a plane. ( Slide 6 ) 6. Despite their growing popularity, wake/surf boats are a small percentage of watercraft on Kootenai County waterways. Yet they make it nearly impossible for the majority to safely recreate on rivers, smaller lakes and narrower bays on Coeur d’Alene Lake. *Transition speed is any speed between slow-no-wake speed and the speed required for a boat to operate on a plane 1 What Would be a Technically Based, Enforceable Regulatory Approach? There is a straightforward, easy to measure, enforceable approach to regulating excessive boat wakes.
