@Roger that is cool stuff. @Splasheye is always up to something cool.

 

I do know that Will Bush has played with some tech that lets the driver see his end course in REAL TIME as well as autopilot steering. There are a few technologies brewing out there but it is a matter of making them economical.

@6balls - The amount the boat (is allowed) to move around varies by driver. IMO that particular clip is too much. Even though the pylon never leaves the boundaries of In Tolerance, I believe that had this been a record setting pass, it would probably have been denied due to cumulative deviation in favor of the skier. It would be interesting to have Jerry run this pass through his software and see the result.

@roger for records the cumulative deviation is calculated when the skier is at the buoy. In between doesn't count. The pass in the video is an almost perfect pass from that respect. If I remember correctly that pass was 7cm cumulative deviation (tolerance for full course is 49)
