National
Amateur Water-ski Champions Train on
Hyco Lake
The
father and son team of Randy and Jacob Budzinski (age 6) took first
place honors at the INT US Championships held in Zachary,
LA in early October 2007. The INT League is the amateur tour for
water-ski, wakeboard, wakeskate, and kneeboard.
Randy
competed in the Advanced Open 34mph slalom division and Jacob in 8 years
and under Mini Outlaw kneeboard. Both can be found from April
through November working on their skills in the slalom course early
mornings and late in the evening on Hyco Lake.
When
the water is calm and the traffic is light Hyco makes for the perfect
training place with its long season of warm water. Randy’s prior
INT accomplishments include National Champion 2005 & 2006 Wide Ride
Super Slalom and 3rd place 2005 Advanced Open. Jacob
placed 3rd nationally in 2005 at the age of 5 in kneeboard.
This
was Randy’s 4th year competing in INT and Jacob’s 3rd.
In addition to the individual accomplishments, team North Carolina
made up of 30 competitors brought back the State title for the third
consecutive year.
