Zyla's first attempt to break the record was at the age of six months 26 days, on Lake Silver, in Winter Haven, Florida on Friday, May 20, 2016. She skied 62 feet. Zyla was just six months, 27 days old when she skied nearly 700 feet down the lake after our barefoot water ski tournament. It was quite a day... Zyla's Daddy Keith, had set a pending World Record in barefoot waterskiing earlier in the day! As far as we know, the old record of youngest water skier was set decades ago by a kid named Parks Bonifay and he was six months, 29 days. He skied just over 100 feet and he grew up to be a competitive wake boarder. But on her second attempt on Saturday, May 21, 2016 Zyla crushed the record. World's cutest water skier skied a dominant 686.4 feet at the age of six months, 27 days on Lake Grew, in Polk City, Florida.
