Baller david_ski Posted November 13, 2018 Baller Share Posted November 13, 2018 I got 4 days in November. Last day was 11/7. Only needed a Camaro top for temps. Water temp 60/Air 70. With fire in NorCal water temp dropped to 50 deg in 4 days due to smoke. I am in Thailand this week. I will probably only get one more day after thanksgiving this season.

Baller jercrane Posted November 14, 2018 Baller Share Posted November 14, 2018 6 sets in 3 days at Jodi's in FL 11/10 through 11/12 All 22 off with Jodi, Frank and Chimmey busting my chops every pass about all of my horrible habits they were trying to break. Board shorts and Heater top. It was awesome Can you spot the sweet waist break followed by hip drop about to happen? Probably will ski in NH this weekend after the snowstorm clears out and if the water is calm. Drysuit, booties, hat, double nitrile gloves, and only dock starts :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller markn Posted November 14, 2018 Baller Share Posted November 14, 2018 Crazy warm here in central Florida. 11/14 with water temp 74 and air temp 83. Managed to get in 12 passes and that was before noon. Reality will set in as a cold front is approaching with expected lows in the upper 40's for a few days.

Baller jercrane Posted November 17, 2018 Baller Share Posted November 17, 2018 One last free ski before we hit the mountains and the frozen stuff for the next 5 months. Water temp at 38 degrees, air about 42, couple inches of snow on the ground. My ski partner is a lot tougher/dumber than me. I went full dry suit. He just decided to not go in the water. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller TallSkinnyGuy Posted November 19, 2018 Baller Share Posted November 19, 2018 Skied my last set of the season today. Water was 47 and air 65 in NorCal. Winterized the boat after my brother and I each skied a set. Brought the boat home and tried to fill it up with gas, but the gas kept spewing out for some unknown reason (it was well under half a tank full when I left the lake) and the fuel gauge suddenly stopped working, so a few things to figure out and work on this winter. This was a great season -- my first as a member of a private ski pond. So much fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller aupatking Posted November 19, 2018 Baller Share Posted November 19, 2018 Got an absolute garbage set in yesterday. Sometimes you just have to walk away saying, “well, I got in a good workout”. Water temp on my old 196 read 55. It didn’t feel that cold with only a heater top, so not betting on accuracy there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller John Brooks Posted November 20, 2018 Baller Share Posted November 20, 2018 @roger good point and a beautiful spot, although I bet it is very moist and skies like mud in August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Roger Posted November 20, 2018 Baller Share Posted November 20, 2018 @John Brooks - We are not far from the coast and generally have an easterly breeze from the ocean, so it doesn't get as stifling hot here as on say the West coast of FL. I don't think the water temperature reached more than 90 this year. It certainly skis "muddier" than mid to upper 70 degree water, but nothing terrible.

Baller aupatking Posted November 25, 2018 Baller Share Posted November 25, 2018 Got a Friday set in. Water temps in the 50’s with no rubber or a heater top at most is for the birds. This is the first year, in the last several that we haven’t had upper 70’s air temps most of November, so there’s been no need for more. May have to look into a dry suit.

Baller markn Posted November 25, 2018 Baller Share Posted November 25, 2018 Skied 8 passes on the east course, then 6 passes on the south course 11/25..Lake Minnehaha, Clermont, FL. temp about 68 degrees and air temp 70.

Baller aupatking Posted November 26, 2018 Baller Share Posted November 26, 2018 It’s supposed to be in the mid 30’s the next couple nights so we got a set in today. What the cameras these days filter is all the rain coming down. My ski partner gets safety glasses by the box load. Good thing too, they don’t last too long. They are gonna get used on a November day with air 67 and water 61. Don’t have too many more days this warm, raining or not, we were gonna be wet.

shansen345 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 11/25/18 on Lake Washington Lots of fun with a couple friends out skiing and foilboarding. No clue what ski I was on (borrowed) or the line length. Air was 48 but unsure of water temp. Far from a ski boat, but my friend's SportStar was already winterized. Honestly not a bad trick wake.
