Rodgers 2@43

[A_B]

Just saw a flash Jeff was at it again. This time at Trophy.

[Steven_Haines]

It makes you wonder what his practice scores are! He's getting there often when it counts. Makes me think that there's a lot more there.

Get 'em Jeff!

[Horton]

@AB‌ you talking about the score from last weekend or did he do it again?

[Horton]

@"Steven Haines"‌ I do not think he practices much. Not kidding

[A_B]

From Trophy Lakes Facebook page. Overhead video of the 43 pass, and stamped 2 hours ago.

Can anyone confirm? Here is the Facebook link. I couldn't get to the video outside of FB.

I know you can't tell the boat path by the prop wash, but the wash at #2 looks like it was over by the gate ball.....

[klindy]

@AB that was last weekend for sure. Quite an accomplishment!! Several records set there last weekend.

[A_B]

I just saw a new post and thought it was something new. Sorry for my confusion. They must have just posted an update today.

[JohnCox]

Yeah...he doesn't really practice. That 2@43 was at a tournament only 2 weeks after the senior worlds, so that was like having recent practice.... He's just an incredible skier. And a great guy, to boot.

[Steven_Haines]

That's crazy!

[Horton]

the other crazy thing about Jeff is his diet. He eats nothing but raw venison and tree bark. maybe the occasional squirrel

[theinvisiblesoul]

Practice is at the tournament. I heard he eats some rattle snake every now and then. Maybe some cull chickens.

[emac]

What is amazing to me is that he was on a new ski, and only skied a couple of runs prior to the weekend on it; and that was behind a boat that sucks with a bad driver. Plus he"s working a full time job all week. Not to mention very little support, if any, for several years from anyone. He is a great person......and a darn good skier!

[Horton]

@emac

"behind a boat that sucks with a bad driver"

 

Considering that Jeff set the MM record, your statement is ridiculous. We are a friendlier crowd around BallOfSpray and the way I read your post you are insulting Chris Eller and Master Craft. I am not all ok with the tone of your post.

 

If I misunderstand your post and you want to be a part of BallOfSpray please send me an email

[emac]

I meant his practices earlier in the week with me driving ! Wow, you guys are rough.

[Horton]

@emac‌ Ok. I see that. Cool. Sorry for the dust up.

[Horton]

Someone please give me a panda

[6balls]

@emac it isn't rough around here, but carefully policed. If you look at lots of other forums where things get out of hand...it doesn't happen around here. It doesn't look like you meant any disrespect, but in general disrespect around here isn't ok. With that, I see you have 2 posts so are a newcomer and thus I extend a welcome and I hope you stick around. If you do I promise you will find it's a good bunch on BOS.

[Drago]

I didn't read it that way at all. I assumed @emac‌ was talking about practicing anywhere he could behind any old boat. You guys are a little...sensitive:/

[DanE]

Ha ha! I read it like the Mastercraft sucks if you put a bad driver behimd the wheel.

@emac‌ What ski is Jeff on? T1, T2?

[doonez]

@emac I knew what you were trying to say!

[jmvana1]

Welcome @emac! This is a great site! ....and I agree that Jeff is a great skier and a great guy!

[Razorskier1]

Jeff is on a T2

[DanE]

@Razorskier1‌ Also thought he was on a T2, the couple of runs he had prior to the weekend- was that preliminary and final round of +35 worlds? Or was he on a T1 during worlds?

[LeonL]

My first read of @emac's post, I took it the same as @Horton. I reread it and saw the error in my original comprehension. Welcome @emac.

[matthewbrown]

@horton ...you deserve two panda's and perhaps even a rhinoceros

[DaveD]

You'll have to excuse Horton, his new diet of raw venison and tree bark is making him cranky.
