Aquatic Acrobatics. Pretty maids, tricky barefoot skier, and spine-tingling crash dives - all are featured in the 6th Dixie Water Ski tournament. Star of the show is Toribio Durantes of Mexico, who skids along on his bare feet, and also performs amazing gyrations on pair of tiny skis. Synchronized water skiing stunts, mostly with young women, some men in one of the formations. Includes some close shots of skiers' legs. Men on water skis perform jumps using ramp; one ditches his skis and goes into a dive, diving into the water; pretty cool.
