Baller Cooper_Trelawney Posted September 16, 2023 Baller Share Posted September 16, 2023 It's amazing watching her ski through the course at 41 off knowing how short 41 off is and how short Regina is (compared to the typical men's slalom competitor). It's truly an incredible feat. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ Wish Posted September 16, 2023 Baller_ Share Posted September 16, 2023 I suspect she could have run that by the looks of it. I think she alluded to that very sentiment after. Obviously capable. GOAT. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Jordan Posted September 16, 2023 Baller Share Posted September 16, 2023 Judging by that run, she is going to run it one day! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Jordan Posted September 16, 2023 Baller Share Posted September 16, 2023 It occurs to me that Regina is even more amazing when you consider that as a Malibu athlete she only gets a couple of shots per year to compete behind the "correct" boat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller 6balls Posted September 16, 2023 Baller Share Posted September 16, 2023 Nutha level--just nuts. Does look like she can or maybe cudda run that one if not a little loopy at 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller jercrane Posted September 16, 2023 Baller Share Posted September 16, 2023 That 1 ball folllowed by world record is mind blowing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Dirt Posted September 16, 2023 Baller Share Posted September 16, 2023 Outstanding! 41 is crazy difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller jhughes Posted September 16, 2023 Baller Share Posted September 16, 2023 She had to have safetied 5 specifically to seal the WR. Would have sucked to fall at 5, big time! Amazing feat after that full re-point at 1! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ Wish Posted September 16, 2023 Baller_ Share Posted September 16, 2023 Remind us how tall she is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller 6balls Posted September 17, 2023 Baller Share Posted September 17, 2023 I think with 4 she had already decided get it around 5 and save it--but she's gonna run that at some point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ToddL Posted September 17, 2023 Baller Share Posted September 17, 2023 That 1-ball was a mess. It was almost as if the ski rope lifted the ski tip up and she had to reset the edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Cooper_Trelawney Posted September 17, 2023 Baller Share Posted September 17, 2023 @ToddL if memory serves me right, she had a very similar 1-ball on her previous record too. Maybe that's the trick? 😆 Whatever it is, she makes it work. She went further down 41' off than any of the guys did this weekend. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Jordan Posted September 17, 2023 Baller Share Posted September 17, 2023 Granted at 34 vs 36, but she got further down the line than the men. Has that ever happened before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller kmenard Posted September 18, 2023 Baller Share Posted September 18, 2023 Even knowing she got the record, I watched that one ball and thought...no way she makes this. Mid pass it looked like she was going to run it. Man I love watching her ski...perfect balance of guts and technique. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skibrent Posted September 19, 2023 Baller Share Posted September 19, 2023 Was great to watch on TWBC…even from the other side of the world! Gutsy effort after one ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ScottScott Posted September 19, 2023 Baller Share Posted September 19, 2023 That 1 ball shouldn't be so surprising. Ragina has a history of a wheelie turn on her offside but stays in the pass, rememeber the video that made its rounds where she ran 39 with similar wheelie turns on all 3 of her offside turns (1, 3, and 5.) I see that some in other women skiers particularly from time to time. Its not what they're trying to accomplish, but its something that happens and can be handled pretty successfully. (there is a split second after the turn before the boat advances where they can reset themselves....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Jordan Posted September 19, 2023 Baller Share Posted September 19, 2023 Not news, but Regina is about 5'4" and skis the same speed as most of us on this board. Her ability is just astounding! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Horton Posted September 20, 2023 Author Administrators Share Posted September 20, 2023 @UWSkier well, it's not quite that easy. When you go down the history books she has to compete with people like Brett Wing, Chuck Stearns, Sammy Duvall, Carl roberge, Jimmy Siemers as well as single event skiers like Rabbit, Andy Mapple, Fred Krueger .... 1 Goode ★ HO Syndicate ★ KD Skis ★ MasterCraft ★ PerfSki Radar ★ Reflex ★ S Lines ★ Stokes Drop a dime in the can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
