As a driver and a skier, I always ask the skier how he likes to be pulled, normal courtesy :)

@ballsohard I am 6'2'' and 170lbs, 41 chest and I did ordered a medium Evo2 vest. It was too small. I could zip it but couldn't breath....and with a wetsuit...no good. I have a large slasher but it is getting loose after 3 seasons and waiting for my large Evo2.

Ok, thank you for the info !

@adamhcaldwell @AdamCord I have a Mapple T2 and can I put your CG fin in my fin box ? I ask because it looks like the fin box is narrow.... Thank you

@TonyLightfoot I started watching from the beginning, I live in Geneva and the whole webcast was really really great and "man alive" !!!! finally we had some great interviews with skiers. It was really nice to hear more about Dane etc...and the mix between you and Drew was awsome too, it was "organized" Drew would say !!!! Super job and looking forward for the next ones Quality was really good here in Geneva !!!!

I saw that too and it looks like her front ski stays more horizontal at the end of her turn ....jsut my opinion...

Super happy for Freddie, he found the best ski for him and 2019 will smoke ...!!!!!!

Is the first best floating ski the C65 ?

@Stevie Boy ... :) I've got your point ....thank's

@lpskier I don't know him personnaly but we belong to the same club in Geneva "La Nautique". And thank you to all the other ballers for your information. Really appreciate it

Hello Ballers, A friend of mine is moving from Geneva to Manhattan next month (min 6 months stay) and he started slaloming last year and he can run 15off at 30mph. He is 40+ I don't know exactly. My question is where can he go skiing near Manhattan ? Long Island or NJ or upstate NY ? He will have a car. Thank you very much for your infos and I will tell him to join BOS, it will be simplier for him. Chris

It sounds great !!!! Thank's anyway for what you do

And thank you again for your video @Horton !!! :smile:

I have the same problem as many skiers has most certainly. As I ski on open water,I ski a lot on a defensive position and my hips are on my rear foot. The youtube video that Horton made last winter is helping me and IMO this is good material to read with GUT and other stuff. of course. For the beginning of the season, I decided to free ski a lot more and I have the time to think and feel my position and to correct it because I can make more than 6 turns. Practice will give me memories muscles that I can translate in the slalom....not really have the time to think when slaloming ..... Good luck to you @ghutch

I will not dislocate my shoulder and ski the whole season !!!! And work only on my stance stack....hips in the right place :p

So thankfull to see @CParrish43 back competing again.....always impressive skiing....GO Chris !!!

I was more like teasing......still is an incredible skier and skiing.....

Will missed the entrance gate .....

I have a O'Neill psycho one 3/4 and we ski with water btw 43F (last week) to 48F (yesterday) open water in Geneva, and I have friends who ski with the blackteck camaro. The main issue is durability. The camaro will last 2 season max and mine is 2 seasons and is like new. Regarding comfort, mine is a bit thicker and so a bit warmer but the camaro is very comfortable and easier to put on. But if you have to buy a camaro every 2 seasons....than the O'Neill comes cheaper.

I can say that even from the other side of the ocean (Geneva) their service is top notch. Every time I have a friend who goes to Orlando from Europe I tell them "they have to go to Perfski". Thank you so much for responding so quickly and your help when I needed

@mbabiash when I read your comment, it makes me think that when crossing the wakes you must not hold as strong as a regular fin meaning it should be less tirering since the ski accelerat faster and quicker. Am I correct ?

And I was barly skiing on mono at that time and that was when I started dreaming of slaloming :-)

The first 2 vhs waterski techniques I watched in late1980s was Mike Suyderhoud explaining how to slalom with Bob Lapoint. I really loved theese but I loaned them and never got them back. So yes Mike Suyderhoud was a thinker for sure.

Thank you for your infos @SkiJay, really helpfull. I will start the season in 3 weeks and I see how it goes and if I want your fin...would you ship it to Geneva Switzerland ?

@SkiJay me again, especially I basically ski on a open water lake and it is rarely calm.....because I am thinking that I might have a better and stable traction with a longer and deeper fin than yours.....and maybe not at all....I don't know and if you have some answers......I would really apreciate and thank you too (love your book by the way)
