 The
Fastest Barefooters in the World

Speed Barefooting is an aspect of our
sport that very few have the nerve to do. It's takes nerves of
steel to hold on to a rope behind a top fuel drag boat that's
accelerating from a slow speed of 60mph to 130mph is less than 3 seconds
knowing that if you fall, you could break every bone in your body as you
skip across the water out of control.
The most famous speed footer is Scott
Pellaton. He's been retired for nearly 10 years, but he came out
of retirement in 2006 at the age of 50 to make a speed run just to show
the world he still had it. In the process, he inspired Teresa
Wallace to learn the sport and train to break the Women's world record.
Teresa plans to continue her quest for speed throughout 2007 as she
follows the Drag Boat circuit across the country.
