A 6-month-old girl in Florida may have set a record for water skiing.  

The baby, Zyla St. Onge, is seen in a video posted by the World Barefoot Center wearing her bathing suit and a pink vest, gliding 686 feet across a man-made lake on her junior-size water skis.

Her parents, who are professional water-skiers say their daughter has set a youth record.

The 6-month-old, who doesn’t even walk yet, held on tight and skied across Lake Silver in Winter Haven on May 19, while adults lined up next to her for precaution.

Zyla’s father, Keith St. Onge said on May 25 that she would’ve kept going if the boat hadn’t reached the end of the lake.

“Zyla St. Onge, 6 months 26 days, became the youngest skier in the world recently!” said World Barefoot Center who shared the video on Facebook.
