We're the Midwest Barefooters — a fun-loving community of families, friends, and athletes who share a passion for barefoot waterskiing. Whether you're just learning to ski, looking to improve your skills, or ready to compete, you'll find a warm welcome and plenty of support in our group.

Our mission is simple: grow the sport, share the joy, and have fun on the water together. Throughout the year, we host family-friendly fun ski events, learn-to-ski clinics, and 3 event tournaments that bring barefooters of all ages and abilities together.

From cheering on young beginners to watching seasoned skiers push their limits, our events celebrate the spirit of barefooting and the friendships that come with it.

If you're curious about the sport, have a question, or want to get involved, one of our Directors can connect you with the right person in your area. Everyone's welcome — so come join us and experience the thrill of barefoot waterskiing with the Midwest Barefooters!
