  1. I have skied both, and own an NRG R1. I skied my buddies R2 and it is fantastic. Really much better than the R1 in my opinion. I skied the Senate Pro at the @theboardingschool and bought the ski. I felt the Senate was much more confidence inspiring. That said, the R2 was great. For reference, I am 54 and started skiing about 5 years ago. I ski at 32mph, and last summer just started skiing 28' off, inconsistently. If you can get to the boarding school, I am sure Travis can put you on one. You will probably buy it.
  2. @S1Pitts and @BobF , our course has been out for about a month now, but looking forward to 2022. Yes the ski definitely seems glued to the water, really tip down. I thought the cold water, 50 degrees, would feel slippery and unstable. I was blown away.
  3. So I skied the NRG R2 this weekend, in the cold Vermont water. I have been on the NRG R1 for the past couple of years, So I wasn't expecting a radical difference, especially with the cold water. I couldn't believe how much more planted, for lack of a better word, it felt. Especially on the onside. The offside on the R1 was always great, but I had to work a little more on the onside. Really impressed, I guess I am upgrading.....
  4. @S1Pitts , I did the same with the whisper fin in June. I have the R1 and LOVE the offside but had been struggling with the onside. WOW, major improvement with no downside to the offside. Would love to try the R2, maybe demo in the spring, water is is soon to be quite firm here in Vermont!!
