There's nothing about this that isn't completely awesome. I saw some pretty great waterski shows as a kid (usually at Cypress Gardens) but nothing with actual superheroes. My loss.
Completely awesome update: check out the Noblemania blog for TONS of further info and photos about this ski show (and other cool stuff).

With 2 Batmen! Must be a high powered boat to pull all those skis.
I think that's Batman and Batgirl. Oh, the showmen of Florida worked out how to pull a bunch of people pretty much as soon as boat motors became available.
Cypress Gardens routines. From clowns and ballerinas to super heroes. Same-same.
I remember a pirate routine.
Why have I never seen a ski show? I'm sorely disappointed in my lack of skiing in my life.
Aw, you were born too late.
My son who just turned 5 and is obsessed with Batman, Spider-man et al. would LOVE to see that.
That is freakin' sweet! I've never seen a water ski show and now I never will. How could anything live up to what I now know is possible? It can't.
If you ever get the chance, you have to see one regardless. Even if it's not quite the perfection featured here.
I was like "what? it's a water ski pyramid. pretty cool, but we've all seen pictures of OH SHIT IT'S THE SUPERFRIENDS!"
Which pretty much makes it 100x more kickass.
Interviews with nearly 40 of the skiers from that show, plus rare candid photos of all the heroes: http://noblemania.blogspot.com/2011/08/super-70s-and-80s-sea-world-superheroes.html!
