Ski Sharks members part of new world records

Even though the final Shawano Ski Sharks show was on Aug. 17, the team has been busy over the past few weeks.

Several Ski Sharks members have been part of world record attempts, and the team has began to plan for the 2023 season.

Keuschel part of new world record

Ski Sharks member Brad Keuschel was one of the skiers that formed a 93-person human pyramid on Sept. 10 on Rock River in Janesville.

Recently, the accomplishment was officially named a Guinness World Record for the largest human water skiing pyramid formation.

Skiers from seven different teams formed the pyramid named The Mercury Marine Pyramid.
