At four times in her career she held the World Record and is still the current Canadian Record holder. Family was an important aspect of her success and during the early years, her parents and brothers and sisters were always there to offer support and encouragement. Susi’s father Wes was her biggest fan and was always there to greet her when she came out of the water, regardless of her performance. Whether she won or lost, her professional approach to the sport earned the respect of her peers around the world. She has been a true ambassador for the sport of water skiing and for Canada. "I don't know what to say,” said Susi about her induction, “It’s great to [be inducted] at the same time as Kreg [Llewellyn]." |
