Lisa Vincent happened to be in the right place at the right time to capture, on video, a Speedo-wearing man equipped with a set of skis riding around Fernie’s streets.

The scene played out on Feb. 1, on 11th Avenue, Vincent said. Warmer temperatures of around 7 C created the perfect water skiing slop for the man to be towed along on.

“I have no idea who the fellas are,” Vincent said.
