Baller Ed_Johnson Posted December 18, 2015 Baller Share Posted December 18, 2015 Received my copy of "Fin Whispering" today from Jay...Really excellent quality with great illustrations...This the Bible of Fin Tuning...Wish I had this 30 years a go. Especially useful for the beginner who is just getting into fin tuning and never used a caliper before. I highly recommend this for every skier out there.

Supporting Member TustinTom Posted December 19, 2015 Supporting Member Share Posted December 19, 2015 Mine arrived two days ago. As novice to the course, but lover of the sport, it is a quick read, well diagrammed and provides an excellent foundation - for skiing and ski-tuning. Something I will continue to read, keep handy to resource when needed and use to understand about 1/3 of all the posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller gregy Posted December 19, 2015 Baller Share Posted December 19, 2015 I received an email December 5 that mine shipped. Hopefully it will be here soon! Were they sent USPS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller KRoundy Posted December 19, 2015 Baller Share Posted December 19, 2015 Got mine on Wednesday. A great book and resource. Before the next ski season I'm going to be measuring my fin, buying some angle guides and a fin protector, and then hitting the water with confidence I can make adjustments and know what will happen and why. Thank you, Jay!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller MattP Posted December 19, 2015 Baller Share Posted December 19, 2015 I just got mine as well. Really looking forward to flipping through it over the holidays! @gregy mine came from north of the border. Might take a few more days to get to you.

Supporting Member Than_Bogan Posted December 28, 2015 Supporting Member Share Posted December 28, 2015 WOW. This book is REALLY GOOD. After my first read (of many I expect), I highly recommend it for slalom skiers of all levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller DanE Posted December 28, 2015 Baller Share Posted December 28, 2015 Had to keep the one I bought a secret as it was a christmas gift for my son. He's already diving into it, haven't read it yet myself just glanced through it and Holy Cow!! Never expected a waterski related publication looking this professional. Nice job @Skijay.

Baller SkiJay Posted December 29, 2015 Baller Share Posted December 29, 2015 Many thanks guys! It's really nice to know you're enjoying the book. It will be interesting to see where this all goes as everyone heads down the rabbit hole together ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Glock Posted December 29, 2015 Baller Share Posted December 29, 2015 I just ordered the book. Looking forward to it as I have never been to technical about my equipment, just make sure my settings are to factory specs every season. One question I have is how will this information mesh with the "GUT" theories? I'm really looking forward to taking my skiing to the next level and getting into shortline consistently. Applying the knowledge to adjust the ski to my preferences and gaining a true understanding of waterski theory will help, I hope. I also need to get into shape, there are plenty of books for that. Workout more and drink less beer. Wish it was that easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporting Member Than_Bogan Posted December 29, 2015 Supporting Member Share Posted December 29, 2015 @Glock So far I've found SkiJay's science and Denali's science to both be science, and therefore largely in agreement. Indeed, I feel that each has helped me understand the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller DanE Posted December 29, 2015 Baller Share Posted December 29, 2015 Jr claims that @Skijay mentioned me in the book. It was about some guy who constantly changes fin settings depending on water temp, wind, slumps or whatever reason of the day... I'm gonna be famous, who knew?
