If you can easily get a 65” ski I would recommend that you do so. I ski with a friend that is roughly your size and he skis a 65”. I’d give it a try at your size and speeds. 

Yup, really expensive but really worth it.

It originally was closer to the center but I moved it to the right to put on the OffCourse.

BEAUTIFUL!!! Congratulations.

Wow, is this thing awesome. I just got it in the mail and wore it around in my house for 2 minutes and started to get too warm. It is ROOMY and very heavy/warm. I can't wait to try it outside tomorrow! I think this is going to be one of those "why didn't I do this years ago?" moments. 

Man, this really motivates me to get my Off Course out more often. It was quite an investment and I need to just start using it.

That looks pretty good to me! I've seen way worse. Congratulations! For the upholstery, any good upholstery shop should be able to help you out. I only see the tear in the driver seat, but everything else looks good enough to use to me (unless you are going for new-boat perfection).

Ski hard!

Question about the PTM mirror.  I have a CC 196 with a conventional mirror on it.  I like the fact that the current mirror sits at or just below the mounting point at the top of the windshield.  In viewing the PTM panoramic mirrors online, it appears that the brackets are mounted at the top of the windshield such that the mirror has to sit above the top of the windshield.   Thus, one would have to look higher---which, to me, is distracting.   Does PTM provide a bracket that can position the mirror in-line with where I now have to conventional mirror positioned.

I’d call or email them and ask. Mine sits high where I can see over passengers easily and I love it there. 

Dang it, now I want one. Had never heard of them until this posting and unboxing, but skiing in the PNW is a battle vs cold weather. The ability to throw one on and stay warm is VERY appealing. I could also see it as a great way to keep the seats in the truck dry.

Whit can post here anytime. 

If the crew would like to get a set in on Lake Stevens in 2024 shoot me a PM. I’d even load up the paintball shooter for ya! 

@swbca What boat? That angle sounds really similar to what we measured for my SN 200. I only purchased one of those digital angle gauges, but putting three on there seems like a great solution to me! Well done. 👍🏻 

Yup, that is cool. 

That is really good. Well explained and good photos. And, I know this is an area where I need to drastically improve. 

Rossi has mentioned this before if you go back and listen - you might try one of the episodes on gates? His move to turn into the gate is not back, but forward, at the moment you and the boat match speeds. Noon is straight down the course so 2:00 is a move forward and up to the right, dropping into the turn. I've been struggling with this term, "dropping in" but I think I'm starting to get it. Old habits are hard to break.

This episode is so good! I’ve listened to it twice, and along with some other coaching I think I am finally getting the idea. So much to learn in this sport.

@RichardDoane Nice to meet you today! Saw some great skiing. 😁

I also ordered one and I love it! Great product.

@Horton OK. Thx.

Not to get too personal here, but about what do you weigh these days? Thinking about the 67" ski length.

My wish is fulfilled!

Anyone else keep refreshing BoS and Instagram waiting for the new Vapor to drop? 

@Deep11 What is that camera lens on the GoPro? I have a 10 and admit to being pretty frustrated. 

Cool. Ordered one.
