Baller Spuddy Posted August 29, 2018 Baller Share Posted August 29, 2018 I ski with a buddy who is a car guy and he has always quoted the “Fast and Furious” line “I live my life a 1/4 mile at a time, for those 10 seconds or less I am free” I have adapted it for skiing and say “I live my life 6 bouys at a time for those 16.95 seconds I’m free” just wondering if anyone else has any movie related quotes for skiing.

Baller DangerBoy Posted August 29, 2018 Baller Share Posted August 29, 2018 I know what you're thinking; did he make 6 buoys or only five? To tell you the truth, I kinda lost count myself in all the confusion, But being this is a supercharged Nautique, the most powerful ski boat on earth; powerful enough to pull your arms clean off, I'd ask myself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well do ya, punk? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller bigskieridaho Posted August 29, 2018 Baller Share Posted August 29, 2018 This is my ski. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My ski is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my ski is useless. Without my ski, I am useless. I must adjust my ski true. I must ski better than my enemy who is trying to ski better than me. I must beat him before he beats me. I will… My ski and I know that what counts in tournaments is not the rounds we ski, the noise of our boat, nor the spray we make. We know that it is the bouys that count. We will make our pass… My ski is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its settings and its limits. I will keep my ski clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller DangerBoy Posted August 30, 2018 Baller Share Posted August 30, 2018 PIPPIN: I didn't think it would end this way. GANDALF: End? No, the journey doesn't end here. An OTF is just another path, one that we all must take. You feel yourself going over the front, the grey spray-curtain of this world rolls back, you make impact, and then you see it. PIPPIN: What? Gandalf? See what? GANDALF: White shores, an ambulance and paramedics, and beyond, a far green country under a swift sunrise. PIPPIN: Well, that isn't so bad. GANDALF: No. No, it isn't.

Baller skialex Posted August 30, 2018 Baller Share Posted August 30, 2018 Quote about the new Nautique, “It’s the boat that made the Kessel run in less than twelve parsecs. I’ve outrun Imperial Mastercrafts. Not the old 197s, mind you. I’m talking about the big Prostar boats, now. She’s fast enough for you, old man.” Han Solo Now I know why it costs that much!
