🔥 THE LEGEND STILL SETS THE STANDARD. 🔥

Like a fine wine… Regina Jaquess just keeps getting better with age. 🍷😎

The former World Overall Champion and World Record holder came to the WWS Florida Cup at Ski Fluid ready to take on the young guns—and reminded everyone why she’s one of the greatest to ever do it.

Regina posted the top slalom score in BOTH the prelims and the finals. Apparently, nobody told her she’s supposed to slow down. 😂🔥

@dehlinger_insurance433 has been my trusted insurance carrier for over a decade.

It also happens to be operated by my good buddy, Mike Dehlinger. His son, Taylor, (featured here) is new to the industry and will one day be running the show. Go get ‘em, dude!

If you’re a Florida resident, I highly recommend giving them an opportunity to beat your current rate. 🤙🏼

Give them a ring at 407-839-0505.

Much like the song in this video, It Takes Two, in water skiing you gotta have a solid training partner to make things go right.

Thanks @mikedehlinger39 for all of the awesome pulls and good times carving the lake for the last 28 years.

It is my hope that every skier can find a dependable and positive ski buddy that they can enjoy the sport with.

P.S. If you’re a Florida resident shopping around for a reputable insurance company that offers competitive pricing for home, auto, RV or boat insurance, call Dehlinger Insurance to get a quote. 407-839-0505.

Way to plug the biz, Mike, while testing out your new Meta glasses.

Meet @rabecurtis my friend for 30 years, groomsman at my first wedding🤣, senior world champ, and SeaWorld legend, still barefooting at almost 69 years young.

Age is a state of mind to some degree. Always strive for the growth mindset over the fixed one. Try not to sell yourself short. You’re capable of great things, you just have to put in the work.

If your body is aching and you’re just reminiscing about your days of youth, fix it and live your passion now.

No more “used to”.

Make it HAPPEN NOW!

If you’re in need of workout and mindset coaching please hit me up. Happy to answer any questions you may have about my programs in my DM’s.
