I've made/repaired my fair share of shot skis (they all have been waterskis however) but I just use a regular 2 part apoxy and make sure to clean the area really well before hand. I've been meaning to try marine grade apoxy with the thought it might hold a bit better against all the spillage and liquid but haven't gotten around to it yet.


in this picture you can see out standard 5 person slalom and out 6 person women's jumper. The Men's jumper was the 8 person ski but I don't have a picture of it.

the red one backwards on the wall is the 6 person.



and here is the makings of a Murdered out one I made two years ago (since then it's become a longboard ski)

i partied with the upenn ski team a few times and they put magnets on the ski and on the bottom of the shotglasses to attach them to the ski. that way its a lot easier to take the shot glasses off and wash them out. it was a pretty ingenious idea in my opinion

I always thought the people in the middle weren't supposed to use their hands? Either way those are all awesome shotskis. I'll have to make one

I have a pretty sick one. Plastic shot glasses never cleaned. I was going to say I will just take a picture but I left it at my friends house last weekend. Threads for later pics

On a side note we brought it to my afterprom and my friends andI were constantly chanting shotski whenever we were going to do one. Everyone there just thought we were being huge bros saying "shotski" not as an actual ski but as in "broski" or pass me a "beerski" but then they saw the ski and got stoked.

that particular house was at 14th and Pearl, the one that is now boarded up right on the ally. I live at 14th and summit essentially now but am moving at the end of summer to an apartment while the waterski house is moving to a new location too. You don't happen to be on the Snow Ski Team here at OSU do you?
