Silver Spray Sports -Marina and Ski Center
For over 30 years...Where fun on the water is a LIFESTYLE!
The Smith Family- for the love of the sport! For over 30 years, the husband and wife team of Jeff and Patti Smith have led the Silver Spray Sports staff. And we do mean TEAM! Jeff and Patti have not only dedicated themselves to the waterskiing industry as a profession, but have played an integral part in the participation of the sport. Jeff is a highly experienced skier and a former Sea World show skier. He is best known as a National Ski/Barefoot Champion, winning back-to-back barefoot trick titles in 1990 and 1991 and the top slalom spot at the 2011 US Water Ski Nationals. He also set a new Mid-west regional record in his division, with 2@39 1/2 off. Patti holds the prestigious position of being the first woman in the history of the sport to be chosen to drive Regional and National Barefoot Water Ski Championships (1979-1990) and two World Barefoot Championships (1988-1990).
This tradition continues today, as Jeff and daughter Whitney Burnash are both nationally/world ranked slalom and trick skiers. As the saying goes, they don't just ''talk the talk, they walk the walk'' which makes them true experts in this business! Involvement in the sport is not just a job for them.... it's their way of life !!! |
