@S1Pitts2003 ski nautique 196 limited

I thought I would post an update, I sold the boat to a gentleman in Alabama for the full asking price of $59,000.  I mention this only to give reference to the boat market.  I listed it fairly I thought, but it still took some time to sell.

I have owned a 91 Prostar and a 2017 Prostar, I loved both wakes.  They are very different but both skied well.  Having never skied behind the 2000, can anyone shed some light on the wake characteristics? Thanks, ballers!

Sorry @Horton, I created a monster with this post!  It is -17 with a wind chill of -40 here in Vermont today, gotta kill time somehow!  Winters are long, John!!

Black Beauty is pretty sweet....

@adamhcaldwellThank you so much for the clarification.  It seems like I unintentionally opened a can of warms with what I thought was a simple question and a desire to practice proper body alignment! I appreciate everyone's feedback. 

@adamhcaldwellso to clarify, skier's feet on flat ground, in what you described above?

@Shelllove it!  

@Horton perhaps look at it through the lens of a beginning slalom skier.  2 years ago, I was at @theboardingschool and Travis has a handle attached to a post that I was using to stretch.  Freddie came over and worked with me on my positioning, more specifically, getting my front knee more over my toes while maintaining my hips and chest in proper position, while trying to stay in a tall position.  With the ability to stay in static position, you can really isolate each piece.  It was a great coaching session for me, and we were just hanging out having a beer at the end of the day.  It just clicked being able to experiment moving forward and back, proud chest and clinch your butt cheeks!  I thought with this type of device, it might more accurately represent your position on the water.

I was thinking it would be decent just to practice proper stance on my snow covered porch.  More of a muscle memory thing.

@Hortonanything on this, John?

@S1Pittsyes, a picture.  I think its safe to assume the lean angle for various rope lengths would be different.  

Hey ballers, as I watch the snow fall down I was day dreaming about skiing, water skiing!  I have a handle on my front porch, but I would love to find one of these lean angle bases.  Anyone know where you can find them?

@Skoot1123  I will meet you half way!

@epnault

Thanks Eric!

@epnault Yes the orange really pops with the metal flake!  I love it, too!  Yes it has the 5.7. Here is a of cool pic from this fall.  Orange boat with the orange and red foliage.

Here is the post on Onlyinboards.com if anyone is interested or knows of anyone looking a clean well-maintained Prostar! Thanks Ballers!

@kmenardThank you,

@Hortonare you planning on reviewing these?

@aupatking spread the word!!

Hey Ballers, just listed my Prostar.  Don't need the front seating anymore, kids are all grown up.  Love to send it to a good home!

@Horton  I listed it this summer for a crazy price, during the craze.  We shall see....

It could re-listing.  I just re-listed my boat...2017 Prostar if anyone wants to take a look....

call @theboardingschool travis and Freddie are the super fun and great!

I was thinking of getting one for a boat/learner ski as well. HO will probably sell a lot more with the standard binding mounting option.
