Cypresskier Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I was looking at the Pelagic Gear website. I have a pair of their sunglasses and love them...but anyway, in the Boardshorts section there is photo of a waterskier. Just wondering who got that gig? Gotta be a Cali guy as they are a Costa Mesa company. Always cool to see skiers in ads... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller aupatking Posted February 21, 2017 Baller Share Posted February 21, 2017 @Cypresskier that's a great one. I'm always surprised when I see an actual skier, in a mainstream ad. A guy running buoys is like a white whale. Thanks to Pelagic. They just got my business. And the advertisers here.. they already get my business Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Lovell Posted February 22, 2017 Baller Share Posted February 22, 2017 There is an ad at Kennedy airport in NYC with a Greek guy skiing the course. Forget his name. It is an ad for a ortho specializing in joint replacement. He is older and a very good skier. Came off the plane couldn't believe my eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ MISkier Posted February 22, 2017 Baller_ Share Posted February 22, 2017 @Lovell, it's Nicos Frangistas. Here is the link to the story (and video) about his knee replacement. It shows him skiing. Nicos The worst slalom equipment I own is between my ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller wskierman8 Posted February 22, 2017 Baller Share Posted February 22, 2017 @lpskier good eye. Pelagic was kind enough to show support for the Wednesday waterski league last year and hooked us up with some gear for the winners each week. wednesdaywaterski.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smilinjim Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 good eye @lpskier, Jim Actually had Pelagic Gear as a sponsor for our Wednesday waterski league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller wskierman8 Posted February 23, 2017 Baller Share Posted February 23, 2017 @aupatking Pelagic's 4Tek style shorts are great for skiing light and stretchy. Sharkskin are good too but they're a little heavier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller aupatking Posted February 24, 2017 Baller Share Posted February 24, 2017 I know they aren't a site sponsor, but they are huge in the Gulf Coast big game fishing world. I have my eye on a pair of board shorts, but I'm absolutely going to make certain they know where I saw their ad first, and it is truly the only reason I'm buying their gear. Everyone in the southeast has to "look like I fish" and I'm just not buying into that. I ski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ The_MS Posted February 24, 2017 Baller_ Share Posted February 24, 2017 @aupatking Both skiing and big game fishing require nice board shorts. They need to match whatever beer label you are drinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller aupatking Posted February 25, 2017 Baller Share Posted February 25, 2017 I like the American flag board shorts they sell, but @MS I'm not about to go full Budweiser just to match. I haven't found a boardshort that properly matches a Sweetwater IPA, or even a 420. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller thager Posted February 25, 2017 Baller Share Posted February 25, 2017 @aupatking If you drink enough Sweetwater you won't need shorts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
