Search Planet Nautique for the thread on GT40 ECU as suggested IF you're more a DIY kinda guy and wanna spend a little time to save a few bucks. If not, there's a guy (HA!) posting in the Facebook Nautique Owners group that has been rechipping and reselling (per the PN-outlined process). I believe the guy is in Seattle area. PM if you'd like help tracking him down?

...1.055 on the Ape Index. 6'5"span/6'1"Vert. Hmm...sudden inexplicable urge for 'Nana cream pie...

I can't figure out how to edit this poll; dare I start a second with the foot-dominance clarifier?

So...at 140 votes, there certainly some conclusions one could reach: *Overwhelming % of right-hand dominant among us, nicely inline with the generally-accepted world average of 10% lefties. *There appears to be no correlation between hand dominance and foot forward, as the results are split almost 50/50. *There appear to be some interesting/amusing exceptions to the hand-dominance rules too ( @slow @ToddF @Jody_Seal ) ; mine is shooting the basketball left handed, though I'm RHD. (Why? I could shoot with either hand, coach said pick one or you'll never be any good...and then I broke my right hand; choice made. I was still never that good...) *The term goofy-foot appears to have deep roots outside of skiing, and apparently it's emotionally stirring for some. It likely comes down to one of a couple factors that determine YFF: - Dad, brother, uncle, cousin skied XFF, so you did too - An instructor tested your foot dominance or other, and suggested XFF - Trial and Error Other possible factors? - Regional and or generational trends as @Horton suggests - Learned as a kid or adult - Learned by dropping a ski - Learned behind underpowered boat Now then, for the bigger question - 'is there an advantage of being one foot forward or the other?' Of course, @Horton : if they were side by side, that'd be...like...combos, Holmes. B)

A talk with @steve77 the other day got us thinking, probably more so got 'me' thinking... I've held the non-scientific belief since youth that 'goofy -footed' was simply what you called someone who didn't ski the same as YFF (Your Foot Forward). Steve offered the perfectly logical explanation that it meant skiing with the same foot forward as your dominant hand - i.e. right hander with right foot forward is goofy. Hmm...that's where y'all come in - I need data! Let's see if the numbers support the assertion. For fun - has anybody ever switched which foot forward?

Thanks Steve!

@S1Pitts That's almost as funny as it is bad...(Pandaworthy?) My buddy asked if the drums were for 'rhythm work'; I said 'yes, and for fine wrist and ankle conditioning...' And Cardio. It's but one vital cog in my total workout program - Cross(mis)Fit.

@Zman -yessir; Parabody. It’s as old as the Jobe on the wall. @skimtb - thanks. Yes! It’s not a cure all, and yet it stretches the back in a way nothing else can. Plus you can channel your inner DeNiro (in Cape Fear.) ?

PM sent.

@DaveD Ha! Hadn't thought of it from that angle. When you schedule a hiking party and nobody....shows up. More so, one of two ways: 1. Simple hikes that don't require ropes, equip, training or permits or filing a plan w authorities. 2. Hikes that can be done by those with 'soft core'... :-)

Salmon fishing, razor clamming, crabbing, mushroom hunting, soft-core hiking, fun runs.
