I attended a disability conference for UBPN 2 years ago in Orlando. I met a group over there that modifies ski equipment and also teaches. Here is there website

Andrew,
Thank you for sharing the information on waterskiing. It is truly amazing what people can do for others when one has a disability. I used to water ski quite a bit however, I've been a bit nervous to try it again since my surgery. I switched to kneeboarding because it was easier on me. I suppose maybe next year I will try it again. Thanks again for sharing.
