I do like the video idea.

In relation to Gear more than ski's---As a customer of Perf that lives north of the boarder one thing i always look for is a Size Chart. For guys and girls who can't always get to the store or have something close by I rely heavy on user feedback / reviews as well as size charts. So many companies make gear that fits differently; a chart breakdown is always super helpful for me when shopping online. I think Perf does this for a good chunk of items but something i do really appreciate.

@Rednucleus thought id just mention this as i thought you'd get a laugh.

Malibu had 7 boats and 2 Axis in their booth this year- no DD

The Ironic Part was the big screen TV they had in the booth had a video on replay, of a response and all the team malibu Skiers. T-Gas; Regina; Will etc....Awesome video and great marketing tool....but NO FRIGGIN' BOAT!!!! The new Malibu still alludes me :P

@Crystal1204 first off welcome to the forum :)

I have had this chat a few times with skiers in the past. I actually can ski both RFF and LFF. i started / ride LFF and will remain that way; however my hip alignment is way better with my RFF . Oddly enough i can only get up RFF double boot in and LFF ( my preferred) i have to start one in and one out ( as my hips wont allow me otherwise; which to me is a big deal, atleast mentally!). I'm 31, athletic and been skiing since i was 3. I ski the course at 30-32mph ( pending time of year) LFF only but do free ski RFF a few times a year for sh*ts. I hear what @Horton is saying and would also never recommend changing now, but i do understand where this is coming from. I also agree to bump it up a couple mph's

"they say" the foot you would "plant" ,say if you were going to kick a soccer ball should be in the front and the one you use to kick in the back. Makes sense; sure. But then i was thinking are there really that many skiers who use their left as their "kicking" leg??

Anyways congrats and the new boat and hope you find some answers this year :)

@Horton you finally said it right!

@dano and @BlueSki i completely agree. I mentioned this is the rise and fall of waterskiiing. Sell the lifestyle, the skill and true passion will come after. I also have no clue what no waterskiiers / cottagers do on the weekend!?!!

I also talk about the lifestyle at work and with others; almost never mention buoys; just how much fun i am having. :)

@motoxr you said it perfectly; if only we could afford one of each! haha

Sweet boats, the guys were great at the booth, and the boats don't last! definitely my fav at the Toronto Boat Show.

This is for @Horton who had recently brought up the outboard discussion a little while back. J-Craft is back! Woooo!

Ski-it-again is always a great spot to keep your eyes peeled.

@RAWSki is a die hard centurion man so he may have his ear to the ground also.

good on ya @ToddJ

@RAWSki that second one is awesome! great shot you too!

i figured it was worth a shot tagging you guys on here. between and and rini & whit im not sure who else here would have something like that.

@Spencer_Shultz7 you are on the right track!

@MarcusBrown is the leader in marketing / advertising on a level that will actually attract new skiers. He's a cool dude, that has more than just waterskiing in his media / vids. The lifestyle is what will help sell the sport. To date he is the only one i see that actually knows how to do that

For the current skiers @Horton is ( again from what i see) the only person even keeping this thing alive ( on a larger stage so to speak)

@MarcusBrown just an idea....I think it would be cool to have like a "celebrity flowpoint" episode. Lots of cool famous people ski and you are wildly loved in the sport and beyond. I'm sure there's a bunch of celebs who would love the opportunity to rip with you and i know you could turn that into a stellar episode ( which hopefully goes viral); a couple good OTF with some celebs...who wouldn't like to see that!?!

I made a comment to a buddy that if waterskiing was on keeping up with the kardashiens ( i don't watch nor know how to spell their last name); it will be all the talk for months to come and could help the scene out......my buddy then reminded me we wouldn't want to ski with anyone who watches that show haha!!

On a semi off topic; because of @Luzz ( the waterski podcast) and @MarcusBrown i now understand and have a true respect for collegiate water skiing! Already leaning towards a school ! haha

Thanks for the Show notes - this is on the agenda for tonight. Looking forward to " Pain, and what it means....and how to fix it." I have a feeling this will be useful to every baller with opening season just around the bend.

Thanks @MarcusBrown

@Shell @RAWSki

Thought these two may have something. I think their wedding was ( or was going to be) ski themed.

Rini and Whit also had a ski theme maybe?

@Jordan they let you in!?!?! LOL

Same style every year. I wonder if that will be a McClinktock boat for the 2020 summer?:) I hope so.

@thager that's display pic worthy! great shot; beautiful dog

@Spineofgoo hilarious!

I bought 3 tickets for Toronto boat show on black friday sale; yes i go 3 times to the same show in 10 days. It's my Disney Land ;)

@jjackkrash and @JAS photos have me all giddy now LOL
