NORTHWOODS - Most people come to the Northwoods to enjoy our lakes and all the activities they offer, including water skiing.
But that sport can be dangerous and a new law will change the requirements designed to keep skiers safe.
Late last month Governor Walker signed a bill into law that eliminates the requirement for water skiing spotters, as long as the boat being used has the right equipment.
Some skiers around the Northwoods say the new law is a good idea, but following the old rules may still be the safest thing to do.

CRANDON - With wide stretches of crusty white snow in all directions, the Crandon High School baseball and softball fields stand out as two big brown blobs; beautiful in the eyes of Josh Jaeger.
"It makes it look like I'm a genius, that I know exactly how to do all these chemistry experiments to melt snow faster and it's simply just a trick that I stumbled upon." Jaeger said.
The first-year activities director walked around the fields Friday just two days after it was covered in "deep drifts," as Jaeger described it.
