My first time succesfully getting up on 2 skis was behind a Downings rental boat that John Minihan's dad had rented for him. It was a 15'/16'Lyman with no windshield. After that I learned to slalom behind my Dad's 1959 19' Lyman with the 109 HP Grey Marine engine. I started from shore every time and never did the drop a ski thing. Being very young and light weight getting up on 1 ski was easy.
