  1. Hey does anyone else have blister issues on gel coat ? I have 04 SN 196 that I leave in fresh water all the time ( lift not an option ) and the unusual thing about the blisters is that they seem to only form on vertical areas below the waterline ... Would anybody repair these themselves ? And what could be done to prevent reocurrances of them Ideas comments Thanks
  2. As an avid and competitive water skier for well over 35 years of my life, today Ive turned 52 ... His age , and its a somber reminder how short and precious our lives are on this planet of ours. He now is in a place that knows not hate or discrimination.... and the water is always glass .... God Bless his family and friends he left behind !!! I skied often out at Mccormicks site it the late 80's , and one day after one of my sets, a group of guys come out to do some skiing there. Low and behold I got to watch Andy, Sammy , Carl , Mike Hazelwood , all ski that afternoon from the boat.... I must have shot three rolls of film ... if I find them ill be sure to post .... With the power we have as a group , wouldn't be great if we could put together a great tournament as a tribute to him and this great sport that we all are so passionate about ?

     

    Happy Skiing to all !

  3. I ran four complete passes at 34/32 Off this morning , and on the 5th pass fell at 1 ball OTF , and hooked the handle with my left arm , OUCH ! nothing appears damaged beyond the bright red / Now black and blue on my wrist .... I feel very fortunate .. water 74F air 75F ( thats cold her in S Florida ) 2nd set , had pain in my wrist on Gate , stood up at one and rode to the dock, Leaving for Vail Co, In the AM
  4. Not sure why Im dropping the handle so low, thats why I posted the vids , so I could garner some feedback from the community .... I felt like i was raising the handle high enough , but I see now what is meant in the comment ... also I felt like i was getting up on the boat more as well... I shot the video with wake eye and an iPad mini .... usually don't have a 3rd person to ski with, its been tough getting the one guy I ski with .... I ski on a lake in Deerfield Beach , Crystal lake... One of two lakes on the county that allow motorized boats .... looking forward to incorporating these changes on my next sets ... Happy skiing !
