Summary

Water Ski drops you onto the Pharonna River for a fast‑paced, vertically scrolling ride where you juggle both the boat and the skier. The river twists and turns, littered with rocks, logs and other hazards that demand quick reflexes, while a ticking clock pushes you toward the finish line. Each level starts you off with four skiers; the game ends once they’ve all taken a tumble, so managing each run is key. Scattered ramps pepper the course, offering the chance to launch your skier for extra points – and if you manage to clear every ramp in a level, a hefty bonus awaits. Scoring isn’t just about speed; you’re also rewarded for navigating the obstacles cleanly and racking up points on the jumps. The blend of boat‑control and skier‑skill makes Water Ski a uniquely challenging arcade experience on the Atari 7800.
