A competitive water skiier has died during a race on the Murray River near the border between NSW and Victoria.
The 42-year-old man was injured around 11am while racing in the Robinvale Euston 80 race on Saturday and could not be revived by paramedics.
Ski Racing Victoria cancelled the event for Saturday and Sunday.
"As a ski racing community, we are here to support the affected family and team members as well as the wider ski racing community at this very sad time," it said in a statement.
"We wish to thank everyone for the efforts and support, our thoughts and prayers are with everyone involved."
A report is being prepared for the coroner.
The incident comes after the death of a man at the Southern 80 water ski race last month, also on the Murray River.
