Baller Chef23 Posted August 26, 2019 Baller Share Posted August 26, 2019 I would likely look at a 69” Senate or Omni. Even though he is a good open water skier he will likely be going 30-32 mph in the course for a year or two. I might look on Ski-it-again because he may improve quickly and it will be easier to upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller BraceMaker Posted August 26, 2019 Baller Share Posted August 26, 2019 If I were learning the course and skiing competitions I'd start with something big and easy. Big enough to 100% get an opener. Butter knife even. College on ZBS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller DangerBoy Posted August 26, 2019 Baller Share Posted August 26, 2019 There's a 69" HO Carbon Omni BWF cheap on eBay right now. https://ebay.com/itm/1-HO-Carbon-Omni-Water-ski-69BWF/401858645057 I think that would be an excellent choice for him, depending on what you can get it for.

Baller Ski_Dad Posted August 26, 2019 Baller Share Posted August 26, 2019 There are a ton of good skis out there - my suggestion is to have his coach give him a recommendation based on how he skis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
