  1. @Jody_Seal when did you dig your ski ditch? I used to fly for a road builder out of lake city, and I remember seeing a site between Tallahassee and Panama city, but that was back a few years....
  2. Where are the coordinates on that lake? My parents live in Robertsdale and im always hunting for a tow when i visit them!
  3. @Andre thats awesome and I will give you a call when youre back to wearing summer gear! I fly in an out of there 15-20 times a year
  4. Nice site!! Whats your typical ski season run out there? Not the face numb dry suit season! Noticed a couple other ski lakes while i was flying out of Aspen last week. One off 82 near Basalt, and another near Gypsm off 70, who looks after those places? Might need to start taking the Rev 6 on my trips out west.
  5. Wow!! Had no idea that was possible
  6. Finally going to bite the bullet and upgrade to ZO and their site is down, anyone have Tim White's number ?
  7. Wait!!! Are we talking about practice or tournament PB's?
  8. What happened to your friend?
  9. you didn't make a you tube video by chance did you? I will be doing both soon
  10. @Drago wow that is correct, thats how long its been.... Since i skied a tourney, i rememeber watching Chuck Forrest almost 41 back then, is he even still skiing?
  11. Cheer up @Horton, Ive been at this well 2/3rds of my life and thankfully ive forgotten how many tournaments it took me to finally score 6 buoys, even more so finally getting to shorten the rope in a tournament. I think your point is that theres not enough folks skiing tournaments, and thats true. I am one of those that could ski tournaments but because of time and an unpredictable work schedule i do not, but planning on running some by the end of the year. Mostly because of your Ballofspray format, and that I have a goal of skiing in the nationals next year. I remember skiing in tournaments that had 30-40 skiers in a few of the division's ( usually the ones i was in) so even then it was about improving your own best. ( remember when you got an EP rating you could get skis for a discount! My one and only ski i got on the program was an ICON) Anyway we all need to things collectively to increase awareness in our sport, or it will cease to exist in the next 10-15 years. Water time is getting harder and harder to come by, boats are getting more and more expensive, and the core of this sport is only getting older... But atleast we all are passionate about a fabulous sport... Regardless of our abilities. It gets us up early and outside for amazing sunrises, invaluable time with our friends and families. Theres a whole lot of folks missing out on our great sport.
  12. Has anyone done the Faria gateway conversion, with the new gauges?
  13. 2004 S/N 196 has had a dead Fuel gauge for the last year now, changed sending unit and gauge a while back, no improvement. Tach stopped working a few weeks ago, no biggie, but my hours meter went back to zero yesterday ..... Any ideas thoughts? Thanks
  14. I had Goode do mine and while it was there they did a total refurbish on the rest of the ski... Piece of mind is worth the money spent.
  15. Reminds me of the bets me and my buddys had for skiing on non skis back when i was still young and pretty.... 2x4s, oars, garbage can lids, snow skis, picnic tables, you name it we tried to ride it. Altough not for buoys, dang it!
  16. DFT and Depth numbers please... I suppose not really a need for wing at this point
  17. Guess i should catch up with the waterboy... Probably better that we dont know... I skied at a site up near raleigh and the guys were always kidding with me about an old dump site for a construction company
  18. Hey does anyone know where or how to test a lake water sample? Maybe I really do not want to know what the water is really like ......
