Sorry to hear that. Skiing is my catalyst for weight loss as well, so I feel your pain in that regard. Get well soon!

Guessing you're looking at property on Lake Magnolia. It's a nice property but you will be commuting about 20-60 minutes everywhere; Smithfield is a pretty good ways from civilization. Great Lake and nice people.@SpartanSki, Would be happy to give you more info about the area, lived here my whole life.

Really jealous beer league hockey player from the south here...

This came up on the MC forums recently. Apparently a company bought the 91-94 molds (and maybe the 205 molds too) and started a boat company. No affiliation with MC that I know of. I would love that hull with ZO for $30k.

Still pending IWWF certification...

@OB I'm going to stay at that Hotel the next time I have business in Atlanta so I can stop by and maybe beg for a couple of passes before work :-)

@Chris Eller When do you guys plan to get yours at Coble? Can't wait to ski behind one there!

@MattP If I could afford it and they weren't sold out months in advance I would! Hoping to go at least twice a season.

Jason Long, 29yrs old from Raleigh, NC. Learned to ski at 15 but really started swerving this year when we bought our first boat, a 2000 MC PS195 (wanted an MC since I was 19 when I got to ride in a 2003 TT 197). Tried to run the course but I still have so many form issues I'm not quite there yet. Live about 45 minutes from Coble, so I hope to make a yearly visit!

 

It sucks to love skiing so much and be so bad at it! :-P Always looking for ski partners...

FYI he decided to keep it :(

Oh, I'm 6'2" and 230lbs for reference. I'd be happy to post video if it would make a difference :)

After my first full season behind an actual ski boat, I'm getting close to running 30/-15, but not quite there yet. I'd like to get the "next level" ski as I plan to ski the course more and more. I'm on a 71" HO Triumph right now, which rides nice in the water but turns like a school bus.

 

I'm about to pull the trigger on a Radar Senate C 69". I've read that it compares pretty closely to the HO Coefficient X, which was my next planned ski.

 

Am I making too big of a jump here? Not enough? Thanks for any insights!

Check out "Coach's Eye" for iOS. The guys at Coble use it and it's a great app.

Use the Ski-Doc and iPhone with Glif camera adapter. I have video if you'd like to see.

Hoping one will be at Coble next weekend when I go but I doubt it...they are too busy touring!

It looks like they are going to be doing some testing at Coble Ski School in a couple of weeks. I might sneak down one afternoon and see what's up...

Was just in central VT for vacation last week. Didn't bring any sort of wetsuit or heater, and let's just say getting in the water was REFRESHING!
