  1. @adamhcaldwell i strive to have the same angle when crossing the wakes on both sides but before i started twist the bindings to the left (LFF) it hurt the lower back cos of lack of mobility on offside, espec closer behind the boat where the angle and strong pull twist the upper body towards the boat to much while lower body followed the ski path. But the main reason why im testing so much things with bindings is issues with bowlegged that prevents me from doing an offside turn in an regular centerd binding cos of unbalanced weight over the front foot or rather all weight towards my little toe makes it impossible to finish the offside turn with an accepted and working angle. but when i got the Goode powerplate with all its setting possibilities that have helped me move my weight on the ski from left side to the right so now it rly turns i think i can be alot of people that can have sim problems but dont know the root of whats cause some of there issues this is where we call in @gavski and the cant plate boot/bindingplate and the important in line the knee-cap over the center of the ski for the best conditions. Out of the box i think Goodes powerplate is one of best binding for ppl with conditions like the one i have, i know that you can change Radar profile boot left and right (vapor) but dont think its possible to move them as much as the Goodes ones can offer and i needed. with some modding on Reflex release plate so can you have some small adjustment aswell Gonna jump on the new c-65 to the spring and try to learn all the new things Gate aim for the buoy forget all what we learned or almost lol .
  2. This is mine setup i twist both bindings to the left to get an more even pull on and offside you can see how much compared with the laserline centered on the g10, and on my rear binding there nr1 is an tray thats act like an teeter helps me move rear leg(right hip)forward nr2 tray thats is mounted only on left side of the shell to create some extra tilting to the right whiles the other side hangs more free in the air (want more on my offsides) nr3 is just bigger kitchen protective pads for the hight adjust of the rear heel i prefer nr 4 is the original spring from Goode that i cutted in half that way i got less resistance to make an heel lift (or boot lift yee u know the deal weaponedge etc etc.) My rear boot is very flexible sideways more to the right even milled a track in the shell on the right side to soften it up a litle more
  3. We dont have any backwash at all but sidewind from north so i would like to test double layers, its easy to test just need 1-2 meter to see how the waves behave when they go thru the first layer and then face the second prob cant expect mirror but better. Plan attach layers on the short sides so its more room for the wave energy to dispatch i belive it works so but not sure...
  4. answer @HighAltitude YES but naa dint work out or at least gave up but it was fun testing
  5. what abt place this plastic snow fence on both side of an 2x3 inch wood stud and dig it down in the bottom of the lake if possible (mud) i must say its rly cheap at least here in swe sells in stacks of 50 meter
  6. this under the vest !! http://www.bengiohst.it/2016/03/02/bumper-carbon-kevlar/?lang=en
  7. @Rivvy if you looking for rib protection i think there is no good ones if you search among all fancy light and flexible sewn with pocket in all the different patterns. To get better protection bigger stiffer flotations element is needed to take up the impact and distribute the impact all over the chest instead of an big impact thats just hit an smaller area inflicting damage to the ribs and you can be gone from skiing for weeks. maybe i have wrong but "Think" oldschool HO connelly from the colorful 90s =)
  8. Hate winter @Horton do you have some free space on your lakeside property for rent from november - april put up an tent or build an swedish permits exempt "Attefallshus" its just 29 yd2 (25sqm) that you can store your skis in when ill move back to Sweden pm me =)
  9. Refers to @BraceMaker post and you can chime in timestamp from an testskiing video where you describe what you liked or disliked in different segment of the course and maybe what the feel was on different ropelength... im going to try this ski out

  12. @skibug whats your weight and ski length on the xt
  13. D3 16- green 66" Quest45 or a -17 depends on the graphics
  14. That dint happend to me but if its an upcomming and recurring problem this that ive done maybe can help out others just relocate the buckets and more back and downwards and use the lower hole in the bucket
  15. 1. Vax top layer on my pink 16 Vapor rly shiny and put it on the wall 2. Buy a new ski Quest45 -16 or-17 depends on color or maybe Goode tx/Rev6 3. Get past 3 ball
  16. is it possible to install zero off to this 515 torque Diesel engine? https://www.perfprotech.com/store/app_themes/ppt/images/tech-specs/md300-ski-1.pdf
  17. Remove chunks of "quagmire" from the shore (if you have in your lake) and anchor them there they do there job best to remove waves that is unwanted cos of wrong wind direction
  18. yee leave it at home but share your numbers
  19. Seems to be the case but the edge plate have normal pattern, if so those using older HO skis must go for edge version
  20. Any source there we can see the US open in HD format or better than the stream? cos even if they broadcast with 56k dial up modem they must have it recorded with better quality for sure
  21. (Im LFF) had that in mind with my supershell but ended up with an lower profile on both side maybe regret that, but my rear boot that is an lyric boot is quite soft so i added an thick twill carbon 600g/m2 piece on the right side of boot from bottom and up and and filled it with epoxi resin, now i cant bend that side at all but left side thats my onside it still more flexible i liked the outcome of it,,, shall test to rebuild the supershell right side add some duct tape on the supershell right side with minor reinforcement to see if i lost something when i trimmed it down.
