Baller oldjeep Posted May 20, 2014 Baller Share Posted May 20, 2014 I thought it was awful brave to open up a knife like that inside a brand new boat and then just set it on a sloped dash ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kstateskier Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 @oldjeep I was thinkin the same thing. Back in the old days when you had to write down slalom/trick scores from the boats we didn't even allow judges pens in the boat for fear of writing on or poking holes in upholstery.

Baller oldjeep Posted May 21, 2014 Baller Share Posted May 21, 2014 They are very helpful when you email them. I was trying to find out if they had something that would work on the tower and v-drive pylon and since the thing is sort of modular it can be done if a second boom is purchased.

bigtallweed Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I have the shock tube version and it tracks well but can more compare it to a boom as I have never used that setup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtallweed Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 That should say not compare. I sometimes hate spell check Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Ed_Johnson Posted May 21, 2014 Baller Share Posted May 21, 2014 I feel both versions Track well, however, the Shock Tube version absorbs more vibration and gives you much better picture quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck_Dickey Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I just bought one of the shock tube version and it works great with my iPhone 4s. I also got the Wakeye App and am really pleased with the Automatic mode. You set the minimum speed, say you're skiing 34, set it at 32 mph and it starts recording once the boat reaches that speed. When you drop at the end of the lake, it stops recording and saves the video. It integrates with the GPS in the phone perfectly. No more remembering to start and stop the camera and no wasted memory on the camera. Hope they add vibration stabilization on their next upgrade!! Also tried another App they recommended called MoviePro, it has all kinds of extra features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtallweed Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 It would be great if ballers posted a short video and listed the type of camera they used and if it was a boom or shock tube model. My set-up follows the skier well but even with optical stabilization I get image shake with a JVC video camera. I would imagine a phone would have a less stable image. Still very useful for self coaching. Glad I got it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I5boi Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Another nice unboxing video by @Horton with Father's Day coming up, I need to choose between the regular iPhone 5 and shock tube version. Anyone have any experience with both versions? I don't use a shock tube but could if video results dictated. Maybe I should just ask for a new CP?

Administrators Horton Posted June 4, 2014 Author Administrators Share Posted June 4, 2014 @I5boi I will make you a deal.

bigtallweed Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 @I5boi I have the shock tube model and after seeing Hortons video I believe I have the right one. The longer moment arm take out the jarring on the slack rope turns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I5boi Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Shock tube Wakeye arrives tomorrow. Let's hope for no wind and we may have my first "help a beginner" video soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
