congrats beautiful boat!

Connelly just produced a great video of their GT being produced (in USA), similar to the vids Radar has put out over the years. Would be kind of dirty pool on their part to shift production of that ski overseas right after producing that vid... My dad was a bean counter though so I know anything can happen!

@TallSkinnyGuy I've had similar deep water install with the ez slalom.. if you haven't done it' already you need 4:1 anchor line to depth so nearly 400' for your application. The kit comes with 100'... Add more weight to the anchor end you will be pulling from, even if it's an extra 10lb Navy tri-flute anchor You are also best to separate the boat guide sections from the trunk buoy. Add the turn buoys after the boat guides are set up.

the difference you will feel will be only in relation to the different mounting locations the 2 provide. you will not get the single plates in the same location as the sequence and the front single does not offer as much adjustment as the sequence. Mind you the rear single offers greater adjust-ability to the rear boot on a sequence IMO. If you want to use the doubles, buy the Mikro-Just and drill out the slots on the front plate. I have both sets and prefer the sequence, going on 9 years with the same one.

YouTube and more YouTube. I don't think there are as many new uploads as there once was when it was starting, but there is a ton of content out there. Some very professional.

If you can swing it, Join a club, you will learn more and faster. Any club I've been to there are always the full gamut of ability levels. I started at a club about 10 years ago on a public lake and couldn't barely run a pass through the course and now ski into shortline at tournaments.

I've always wanted to know HOW you adjust and measure handles/ropes. Perhaps this is a good opportunity for a tutorial?

@MS will you ship one to Canada?

just order from one of the many retailers who have the items in stock. perfski always has ropes and handles

@"bf`" where were you skiing in Niagara? @nleuth good guess! CN tower is about 4x taller though.

Looking to put PP into a 2001 SN 196 GT40, non-DBW w/a 3.5" display. Let me know what you have!

Tri-flute anchors are what Ed sells with his portable courses. I believe they were 30lbs. You can get them in various sizes and. The more weight you can handle the better.

I believe the echelon was finished for the 97 MY. Also believe they got rid of the computron on the later models. Appears from photos this one has computron. Just FYI. If it's in really clean shape 14-17k CAd for 96-97 at most IMO.

I never learned how to drop a ski. If I recall I tried and tried and failed but in hindsight didn't have any real instructions. Ended up getting up on 1 and quickly found by at least resting my back foot near the RTP I could control the start easier and resist the boats pull better. So I've always started with 2 feet in and have been dbl boots for 20 years since I was a kid.
