Carter Schmitz
from Rochester, Minnesota 
was selected as the
April 2008
Footer of the Month

Dear BFC,

We would like to nominate Carter Schmitz, age 5, for barefooter of the month.

What if I told you that there is 5 year from Rochester that can barefoot? Who would believe me? Well his name is Carter Schmitz. He started barefooting at the age of three. While learning how to wakeboard on the boom he hollered “Faster Dave Faster!” As the boat started to increase speed he jumped out of the wakeboard and started to barefoot! He soon caught a toe but from observing other footers he tumbled up and continued to barefoot for another 100 feet. From then on, we all new we had something special.  His first ever barefoot win was against the one and only Dave Mueller.
(as shown in the video below)

Carter was born into a water-skiing family. When he is not on the water himself he is cheering on his big brother Travis and sister Madilyn, his mom Betty and his dad Bill.  His sponsor and Trainer Dave Butlin says, “Carter is a phenomenal skier. It's a rare occurrence that you come across the kind of talent and drive that he has.” Carter’s coaching staff; Bill and Travis Schmitz, Jesse Butlin, and Matt Hoeft have all contributed to Carters success. Carter is the one of the youngest barefooters to ever foot long line. He is a hard working, determined young boy. He truly is the man without fear.

Thanks for your consideration of Carter!

Congratulations Carter!!  Sounds like you have a great setup.  Keep up the good work, and keep making Dave look bad.  He deserves every beating you give him.
