  1. Yeah numbers for the 68 would be great. I am expecting one soon too.
  2. @thager great job. now make it float. Hint: boil the rubber before putting it on.
  3. 180+ hard to tell colors, difficult to change lengths, bungee effect at longer line lengths, (same story)
  4. What great spokespersons for our sport~!
  5. Kinda sounds like Nixon in the 70's. I meant Clinton in the 90's. :D LOL
  6. Bought my Barefoot Sanger from Colorado. I found 'er on eBay. Talked to the owner. Seemed like a worthy by. I hired a driver for 700.00 who that drove for lots of the local marinas. He knows boats. He checked it out very well before handing over the $$. When he got back at 1:30am I could not see the boat very well. It looked really good for what I paid for it. When I cleaned it the next day and had my mechanic run compression test I found I got the nicest Barefoot Sanger on the planet. 175 hrs. Used 2 weeks a year on the river in Wyoming. The dad did a little slalom skiing and the son road a kneeboard. So it really never got used. Never had a boom on it and was always garage kept. I did have to replace a plenum gasket on the Yamaha but other than that I got a great deal. Could have easily gone the other way but I am very fortunate and still giddy six years later. I would not trade this one for a new one of any kind. This is the BOMB~!
  7. Double Dang the L and XL are gone again.
  8. @Horton Pink Floyd "Run Like Hell" (from Dorian)
  9. Dang I missed out. Love my L but could use an XL pair.....
  10. Hope to get the 68" version when it comes off the press. I am not that good of a judge though.
  11. @OscawanaSkier Yup~! Use a heat gun. Keep it moving at all times....
  12. @bhs I have one. Never used but it is an older series with no spring but has the drill bit and countersink never used. $50.00 if you want it let me know.
  13. FYI I tried calling US Gear (main number and Randy's cell) for 3 days and gave up......
  14. @BrennanKMN We have to be USCG legal here also. @Joeprunc got one of those too~! Trying to figure out how to weigh the front end of my Barefoot Sanger outboard for backwards footin' and super fly high. Want to be able to get weight in the bow of the boat.
  15. Pix and description of what you use to weight your boat.
  16. @Jetsetr they are a fantastic boom. Wish I had on to fit my Sanger 3" pylon. Until then I will continue to use the wrench on my BFI to adjust it. Not too bad but the ECI is the bomb~!~
  17. ECI CONTOUR BOOM FOR SALE:$300 EXCELLENT CONDITION. This has the contoured base with highly sought after easy to adjust 2.5" pylon clamp that makes it simple to adjust boom height for all aspects of barefoot skiing and teaching kids of all ages to ski. This fits most tournament ski boats and boats with extended windshields that need the special curve. Sold for $650 new. Excellent condition. .
  18. @Joelh what @aupatking said and the fact that the large V is dangerous. If a skier is cutting side to side if they fall they can get caught in the V . Saw this first hand with a close call at camp last year.
  19. @Horton Not sure what Panda territory is but when watching the worlds everyone here commented on and brought to my attention on how far forward @FWinter 's boots were on his ski. @Drago flash camera causes that color difference. (maybe LOL). Every ski I have owned I have been 1 hole forward. The A3 felt fine in the center holes when I was at 170-175lbs. Now at 195 I felt out of control. Moved the binding forward after reading all the post on A3's and found that several peeps moved to 29.5-30" I am @ 29.5" and the ski feels better than ever. Did not believe that 1/2" could make that much difference. But on my custom boots my heel is dead on the measurement where rubber or other bindings have a bit of space making the foot actually a little more forward on the ski. Not sure how much. Depends on the boots.
