Twin Lakes CornFest Returns

August 14-16, 2025

WELCOME TO AN EVENT OF…

Epically Random Proportions

At TL CornFest, you bring the energy, we bring the corn.

Picture this: three epic days featuring 10+ water sports contests—from trickskiing and wakeboarding to kneeboarding and swivel skiing. Throw in a belly flop battle, a corn-eating contest, and countless other activities to keep the good times rolling. Oh, and did we mention the all-you-can-eat corn that’s included with admission? Because nothing says “oh yeah, that’s Wisconsin” like endless buttery goodness.

We’re more than a festival—we’re a celebration of community, lake living, and pure, unfiltered fun.

Big Tricks.

Bigger Air.

The Biggest Show on Water.

  • This single-elimination trick ski face-off is all about difficulty, creativity, and variety—with a heavy emphasis on showmanship. (Translation: if the skier isn’t hamming it up, they’re doing it wrong.)

  • The world’s most mind-bending, ankle-defying swivelers throw down in a one-of-a-kind showdown. Think ballet meets waterskiing, with a splash of “Wait… how did they do that?”

  • Two skis. Two people. One mission: make the crowd lose their minds. Teams of two hit the water with their most progressive, ridiculous, and entertaining passes. Bonus points for synchronized stoke and unplanned wipeouts.

  • Two-person teams launching themselves into the air like they’ve got something to prove. Spoiler alert: they do. It’s big air, bigger risks, and the biggest bragging rights. Prepare for liftoff.

  • Imagine a long-distance jump contest, but make it spicy. Competitors take flight in a closest-to-the-pin-style showdown. It’s like darts—if the dart was a human flying through the air at 40 mph.

  • Talented shoe skiers compete to claim the throne in the kingdom of shoe ski action.

  • This isn’t just any jump contest—it’s a full-send freestyle jump battle where creativity, style and distance take center stage. The GOF Invitational brings out the boldest skiers to throw down their best (and sometimes sketchiest) tricks off the ramp. Divisions include Open Men’s, Open Women’s, and Juniors (17 & under).

  • You think you know kneeboarding? Think again. This isn’t your cousin’s backyard pond session. Expect flips, spins, and gravity-defying stunts that’ll make you question the laws of physics.

  • Old school meets new school in an epic battle of wakeboarding’s finest. Two tricks, infinite style points. It’s like a history lesson, but with way more airtime and zero textbooks.

  • A nod to the classic barefoot lap endurance contest, the Twin Lakes Barefoot Laps Challenge is a test to see who can barefoot the longest around Lake Mary. The twist: after the second full lap, the boat will decrease speed by 2 mph and continue to decrease speed by 2 mph on every lap until the skier falls.  

  • Tiny humans, big talent. The next generation of water sports legends go head-to-head in a super final judged purely on vibes (and, you know, skill). Prepare to have your mind blown by kids half your size doing things you’d never attempt.
