I wouldn’t recommend it simply because of how different the binding system is. How would you swim in ski boots? Plus I don’t think the metal edges of the skis would allow you to do anything else but go straight, otherwise they’d probably just bury in the water and send you flyin’.

I agree with the first answer. The bindings of water skis are designed to hold bare feet, and to release quick in a spill. And the sharp metal edges of snow skis might be dangerous for someone who’s nearly naked and flying through the water.

ABSOLUTELY! I’ve done it.
It is NOT for beginner skiiers, and I have to warn you, TIGHTEN THE BOOT RELEASE/BINDING AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. iF YOU DON’T, YOU’LL LOSE THE SKI WHEN YOU FALL AND IT WILL SINKKKKKKKKKK.

No.
Unlike water skis, snow skis don’t have the skeg on the back to help you remain stabilized while skiing. Without that skeg, you will just slide around the surface of the water, and it will be extremely difficult to cut.

If it’s possible to ski barefoot, it’s possible to ski on most anything. When learning to ski barefoot, I once took an old pair of wood snow skis, cut them down to about 18″, and screwed some old tennis shoes to them for bindings. Skiing on them was much easier than skiing barefoot. I used two water skis attached side by side as a “sled” that I sat on to get me up out of the water, until I had enough speed to stand up.
