Skill and nerve are required, but it 4 not take a great deal of practice to become proficient. The rider should be a good swimmer, as the chances are he will be ducked quite a number of tim Aquaplanists say some who try the new sport make the mistake, when the plank Ie being hauled at a rapid gait, of turning their to outward, The force of the water, they Say, catches the feet when held in thie manner, and the rider is thrown overboard. The thing to do, the best riders say, is to stand firmly, with the toes pointed straight ahead, and balance with the hands and by shifting the upper part of the body.
