Baller webbdawg99 Posted March 27, 2014 Author Baller Share Posted March 27, 2014 I wonder what kind of demo program he will offer, if any. I definitely wouldnt fork out that kind of money on a ski without being able to try it out first. D3 has the best demo program in the industry. I imagine that Schnitz would have a hard time offering something similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skibug Posted March 27, 2014 Baller Share Posted March 27, 2014 If it came with a "gain a full pass or you money back" guarantee; then I would have to at least consider it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skibug Posted March 27, 2014 Baller Share Posted March 27, 2014 Interestingly enough, it looks like he cut a couple of Elite's apart and stuck them together. The fore ski looks like an O'Brien Quatro and the tail looks like your basic Elite, fin block and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Chef23 Posted March 27, 2014 Baller Share Posted March 27, 2014 Is it April 1 yet? That picture on his website couldn't possibly get someone to plunk down $3K for a ski. I know Schnitz has done a lot of innovative stuff in the sport and I think he had some skis he made a while back. I would certainly wait a bit before I would run to him with my wallet.

Baller ral Posted March 27, 2014 Baller Share Posted March 27, 2014 A ski that actively and suddenly engages the front of the ski just before the wake??? My already broken neck needs for that are comparable to my needs for a second wife... Why on earth do people keep comparing shaped snow skis, designed to flex (a lot) and engage the full sharp metal edge on a solid medium to waterskis?

Baller_ lpskier Posted March 27, 2014 Baller_ Share Posted March 27, 2014 Don't pick on Steve for believing in Dr. Jim. The biggest names in the sport were snookered. I won't mention any names but one of the most influential coaches in the world, whose name we all would recognize, told me to my face in the February that preceded the cheating that that Dr. Jim was the best thing that could happen to the sport. One of the biggest names in West Coast skiing said essentially the same thing to me over the phone. We didn't see a cheater because we weren't looking for one, even though in retrospect, all the signs were there. But for a jump course installed for the Open on his otherwise slalom only lake, he may have gotten away with it. Not that Schnitz needs someone to stick up for him...

Administrators Horton Posted March 27, 2014 Administrators Share Posted March 27, 2014 I talked to Dr Jim a few times. I got suckered...

Baller Edbrazil Posted March 28, 2014 Baller Share Posted March 28, 2014 Among other "names", I sure would like to see the famous/infamous Schnitz make a tournament comeback for next October's 35+ Worlds in Florida. Think that he would be in the 55+ division, but needs to put in a couple of tournament performances before the end of April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Gloersen Posted March 29, 2014 Baller Share Posted March 29, 2014 Schnitz is brilliant! Betting he got some serious potential takers with that ad, proving his theory. @EdBrazil - concur - Quite the innovator and has been great for the sport.
