Baller ozski Posted May 9, 2016 Baller Share Posted May 9, 2016 In the flesh the MC is a work of art, at least the ones that I have seen are. Freddy is getting the job done and still we don't see much discussion here about the MC (on form almost the best ski in the world right now), how many people here have been on one and how well do they ski? STORY Five years ago, after competing on the World Cup and the Pro Tour, we decided to create a new brand of waterskis. The goal from day one was to create and build the most advanced and highest quality slalom ski on the planet. We focused on three features: quality, performance, and stability. To achieve this goal, we started collaborations with an aeronautic composite factory and with companies in the biking industry. We started from the ground up, designing a water ski, deciding that cost would not be a factor. By using the same technology and material used in carbon race wheels, we created the lightest, strongest and highest performing carbon slalom ski on the market.

Baller Tequespray Posted May 15, 2016 Baller Share Posted May 15, 2016 @ozski I bought an MC ski a month ago, I've been travelling a lot so I have not been on it as much as I'd like to. The ski itself is a pice of art in the looks department, and you see the quality of craftsmanship. I had the opportunity to test it at MC's lake in Orlando with Boris Laval (great guy) and have him pull me for a set. He took the time to explain all about the ski and set it up for me, with my front binding (OB4) and got me a RTP with a universal plate (I was using an HO direct connect). The ski is incredibly fast and stable and easy to turn, it is very different from any other skis I had tried, but my opinion is jaded. on the second day I changed my rear binding to an R-style (the RTP with a universal plate has a height difference of about 1cm with the OB4 and I compensated with the HO). I've had about eight sets on a new ski with a new rear binding so the change was quite drastic, but immediately my form got better and was earlier at the buoys. The last two sets finally I started really getting comfortable on it and I love it. My previous ski was a V-Type and i have skied on a Connelly Prophecy, Raptor, Helix H2, Goode Flextail and Goode Nano One XT, out of these the most similar ride was the Nano One XT but forme the MC was and is my weapon of choice.

Administrators Horton Posted May 15, 2016 Administrators Share Posted May 15, 2016 I have only ever seen 2 or three of them but everyone I know that has skied on it is freak'n pumped.

Baller ozski Posted May 16, 2016 Author Baller Share Posted May 16, 2016 Great to hear some feedback on this ski, you would think with Freddy's results people would be limning up to test drive the MC. Any chance we will see a review @Horton? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller gregy Posted May 16, 2016 Baller Share Posted May 16, 2016 I finally got to watch all of the Swiss tournament over the weekend. Freddie and Manon both did some insane scrabbling. They seem to have a lot of confidence it there MCs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supersonicus Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 I've got one. Boris laid up a softer ski for me as I'm a intermediate skiier at best. Coming from a a Goode 9900 mid which I was struggling with on toe side (to say the least), it was like night and day. All stock settings with Wiley's boot and rtp. Have not found an area where the ski is holding me back, love it! I've had to look after the fin settings as they tend to drift more so than with the Goode, but that's not a deal killer.

Administrators Horton Posted May 18, 2016 Administrators Share Posted May 18, 2016 @supersonicus over Hamilton? Yes. Yes I do. Anyone who can crash into Vettel that many times in one one lap is talented. It is hard to watch but I am a Kimi fan first and an Alonso fan second. If the guys at McLaren Honda could get their heads out of there asses and give Fernando a car that he does not have to pedal around like the Flinstone mobile I would be much happier. Rosburg is a sniveling baby but if he can make Hamilton miserable I will cheer for him. Every point Rosburg gains on Hamilton hurts @FWinter and makes me smile. Are we off topic? No this is all about @FWinter and how sad he was last Sunday when his hero Hamilton crashed into Rosberg.

Administrators Horton Posted May 18, 2016 Administrators Share Posted May 18, 2016 @supersonicus I was a @FWinter supporter until I found out about his obsession with Hamilton.

Elite Skier Freddie Winter Posted May 18, 2016 Elite Skier Share Posted May 18, 2016 @303Skier Mo snapped ski in the crash, just a pretty useful velcro Powershell release. Still riding the same ski which I'm happy about as it's the best ski I've used yet (as predictable as that is for me to say but honestly, it's bloody good). It's my first 2016 model and I love it. @supersonicus Yes, a British thing. Though Hamilton isn't in my top, top British sports stars like Andy Murray and Phil 'The Power' Taylor, he's a goodun and the guy I support on the track. @Horton Thanks for you unwavering support despite your love of no-hope F1 drivers. Much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller mbabiash Posted May 18, 2016 Baller Share Posted May 18, 2016 I know we are still off topic but Toto Wolff at Mercedes just said Alonzo could replace Rosberg if they can't negotiate his contract. @Horton How will it feel to have Alonzo and hamilton as teammates.

Baller rockdog Posted May 18, 2016 Baller Share Posted May 18, 2016 Dan Ricciardo would smash that little snot Hamilton if he had that Benz under his butt. Go @FWinter !

Baller ozski Posted May 19, 2016 Author Baller Share Posted May 19, 2016 Andy Murray - When he wins he a Brit, when he loses he's a Scott right @FWinter ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elite Skier Freddie Winter Posted May 19, 2016 Elite Skier Share Posted May 19, 2016 @Horton May I refer you to Hamiltons debut 2007 season when he and Alonso, the reigning world champ, were in the same team. Hamilton came 2nd to Alonso's 3rd in the drivers championships with a superior finish record. Alonso couldn't take the heat so he fled McLaren the following season in which Hamilton won. @ozski Murray is the man either way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller MAD11 Posted May 20, 2016 Baller Share Posted May 20, 2016 @horton I heard the butt tattoo was a pair of 22's with a plus sign in the middle. Covers both British drivers that way. @FWinter wouldn't leave JB out. That's all vicious rumor by the way(the best kind) and has no proof behind it. No matter how you slice it Alonso not getting it done. Unfortunately, the lack of power he suffers from now is due to his inability to stay in the right place at the right time. Hard for me to say as Mclaren F1 was a client in the late 90's and early 2000's so I like to see them do well. Back to the MC. Please don't buy it. The last thing I want is for this group to start talking about big scores on their new MC's. I want to start skiing again and would hate if any of you made it tougher to move back up the list. Plus, every time I get on the forum lately I'm reminded of that old Thomas Dolby song and smile a bit. That's way better than hearing about your new pb's.
