  1. When was the last time we've seen 2 World Records and so many PBs in one tournament? Especially considering the lake is not in Florida and the majority of the skiers aren't regularly skiing behind Malibus (conjecture). Even the jumps were huge although there wasn't a very good headwind situation, it was mostly flat. I'd say this was a big success for Malibu and Lymanland.
  2. @ToddL if memory serves me right, she had a very similar 1-ball on her previous record too. Maybe that's the trick? 😆 Whatever it is, she makes it work. She went further down 41' off than any of the guys did this weekend.
  3. It's amazing watching her ski through the course at 41 off knowing how short 41 off is and how short Regina is (compared to the typical men's slalom competitor). It's truly an incredible feat.
  4. Men's jumping was entertaining with the top 7 jumpers all at 220' or more. I notice some big names missing from the tournament. Is it too close to the Worlds for some? They missed out on some good conditions. Lot's of PBs and a World Record!
  5. @Horton I believe Richie Cunningham is a senior rated driver.
  6. Another great event with an excellent webcast by TWBC. I enjoyed the Kiwi team of Kyle Eade and Aaron Larkin doing slalom commentary. Got to watch some great slalom and jump too. Freddy Krueger is amazing, jumping 230+ in both rounds and taking the win. The guy is 48 and is jumping like he's 28.
  7. On the other hand, T-Gas on a ski is a good thing.
  8. I think this is a pretty good example of the Reverse-C. Tom Poole at the LA Night Jam at Bennett's.
  9. @Kelvin thank you for the webcast! Grateful to watch it live on YouTube.
  10. Poland blew my mind going 235'. That might be a British record. Then, it was so good to see Freddy jump 237' like it was the year 2013! He's phenomenal for a guy who's twice the age of some of his competitors. Wouldn't count Dodd out either. Tomorrow will be great to watch!
  11. I worked in luxury hotels and resorts for a long time. I learned that guests who had an error happen during their stay and that error was corrected to or beyond their satisfaction become more loyal to the brand than the guest who had no negative experiences at all. It's all about being human and the subsequent recovery.
  12. @ETskierthanks for the info and tips! I talked to the boss (known as the wife) and she reminded me that she has a women's retreat for church that same weekend. We have some logistics to work on but my odds just went down to 'longshot'. Worse comes to worse, I still have the TWBC webcast....
  13. Is there a posted schedule of events for the World's at Travers? Did any ballers attend the '21 Worlds as a spectator and have any insights or advice? (Bring portable shade or not necessary, best days for viewing, what else?) Thanks in advance. It's a bucket list sorta thing. I can't take off a whole week of October but might get a pass from my wife to go out to FL for a couple of days.
  14. Franken-ski. You gotta love this guy's independent approach to ski and binding set up. Variety makes the world go round.
  15. Will @JoelHowley be competing? I saw he'll be in California for coaching soon.
  16. I'm going to guess that the overall record on the 3rd one down is Patrice Martin and that the slalom record of 5 at 38 off is Bob LaPoint. Probably wrong on both...
  17. 17 year trick record would be one of the Larson twins, I bet.
  18. @Luzz and 17 scored toe tricks in 20 seconds! That's extremely fast!! Also, got to watch some of the San Gervasio Pro/Am today. I know you put a lot of work into it, thank you! On another note, it would be interested to see what today's trick skiers can score if they only did 1 flip in their runs like Cory Pickos, Tory Baggiano and Patrice Martin. Would today's guys beat yesterday's guys on a level lake (playing field)?
  19. If you saw this short film in the theater.
  20. The PowerBall jackpot is up there...gonna be some skiers buying tickets. You can drive about an hour or so one way to snow ski and drive an hour or so the other way for some of the best wineries anywhere.
  21. @BKistler @Jody_Seal yall mean on a ramp like this (behind my daughter). Local ski club's show ramp.
  22. @Ed_Johnson have him check Ski It Again. There's a listing at Ski Texas that appears to be a good value. If your friend needs a Texas agent to represent him, he can email me at travissellsproperty@gmail.com
  23. If you subscribed to 3 magazines: The Waterskier, Spray and World Waterski
